==''The Adventure of Link''==
The Magic Meter in ''The Adventure of Link'' is seen at the top left hand corner of the screen. It is the only meter so far that deviates from the green-colored bar and instead uses multiple white bars, each representing sixteen magic points, and a numerical integer next to the word "magic" to indicate level number. Magic abilities in this game can be upgraded by leveling up; however, magic can only be upgraded to level eight.

It is unknown what other items or abilities would have been powered by the magic meter before it was removed.
