Nintendo Power: March/April 1989 is the fifth issue of Nintendo Power magazine. Up through the end of 1990, Nintendo Power magazine volumes were released covering two-month periods of time, and they were not generally numbered in or on the magazine until Volume 16 (September/October 1990), although "Strategy Guide" issues before this carried a dual "SGxx/NPxx" numbering.

Mail Box (p. 7)
As part of the Mail Box, a high school teacher writes in talking about the benefits of video game playing for children, as long as the cash and time involvement was not too great. In particular he praises The Legend of Zelda and The Adventure of Link, for the level of critical thinking that they require in order for players to complete.
The Adventure of Link (pp. 8-14)
The Adventure of Link the fully featured in the previous issue of Nintendo Power, and that continues onward here. There is a full map of West Hyrule, showing almost all of the locations where special 1-Up, Magic Containers, Heart Containers, Red Jars, Treasure Bags, and other items are found.
There are full maps, strategies, enemy, and boss artwork for the fifth and sixth palace, found in the game. There is also a step by step summary guide of getting through the Valley of Death, on the way to the Great Palace. The final palace is mentioned, but it is not featured within the guide itself.
Counselors' Corner (pp. 58-59)
In the Counselors' Corner, there are two questions regarding The Adventure of Link.
Finding the Hidden Town of Kasuto
- "Where is the Hidden town of Kasuto? How do I find the Magic Key?"
After heading to Old Kasuto, you'll find that all the people have fled the town due to the amount of ghosts that have appeared. They have traveled east and went through a cave, knowing that ghosts cannot travel through such caves. In an area along the east coastline, with some sand beach area and a clump of trees, the Hidden Town of Kasuto can be found. Link will need to use the Hammer to chop down some trees, revealing the location of the hidden town.
Learning the Upward Thrust and Downward Thrust
- "How do I enter the building in Darunia that gives a clue? What is the secret to the Churchbell clue in Mido?"
In the Mountain Town of Darunia, one of the doors is closed, but it gives a clue that there is someone behind this door. Buildings can be entered in a variety of different ways and one of the spells Link has learned will allow him to enter this building. Link can jump on top of a series of buildings using the Jump Spell, entering through the chimney. Inside the knight will teach Link the Upward Thrust.
