The '''Upgrade System''' is a feature that makes its first appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''.


==Overview==
==Skyward Sword==
This system allows [[Link]] to take items that he already has and enhance them using the [[Treasure]]s found on the [[Collection]] screen. For example, if Link has acquired all of the necessary materials, Link's old [[Wooden Shield]] is turned into a stronger, more durable [[Banded Shield]]. Not only can Link upgrade his [[shield]]s, but also his items. An example is Link turning his [[Slingshot]] into a [[Scattershot]]. This is a unique way of keeping items from becoming unused, and unloved, like they have once or twice in previous ''Zelda'' titles.

In A Link Between Worlds, upgrades are done by visiting [[Mother Maiamai]] and rescuing her missing childern by groups of ten. Whenever [[Link]] finds a group of ten [[Maiamai]] he is prompted with the option of upgrading an item he purchased, not rented, through [[Ravio's Shop]]. Each Item purchased from [[Ravio]] can be upgraded only once, and when all nine items have been enhanced, Link's [[Spin Attack]] can be upgraded to the [[Great Spin Attack]].
