===Touch Screen Controls===
The third control scheme can be called Touch Screen Controls. As can be guessed by using its name, this system requires using the touch screen on the [[Nintendo DS]] to control Link's Bombs. This can be done by first equipping the Bombs, and then pressing the symbol in the top-right corner of the screen. This will cause Link to take out a Bomb and hold it over his head. In order to throw the Bomb, press the location you would like the Bomb to go with the stylus. Link will proceed to throw the Bomb directly to that spot, making for some interesting puzzles. This system is found in the two games for the DS, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]''.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', Link can combine Bombs with the [[Bow]], creating Bomb Arrows which can reach things [[Link]] cannot get to himself. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', Bomb Arrows can be equipped, making them much easier to use.

They are able to crawl on walls and ceilings. In ''Ocarina of Time'', they are used in the [[Bombchu Bowling Alley]] as well as for a puzzle in the [[Spirit Temple]] and [[Ganon's Castle]].

In ''Majora's Mask'', the Powder Keg is a more powerful bomb that can only be used by Link in his [[Goron Mask|Goron form]]. To be allowed to carry one, Link must use a Powder Keg to blow up the rock blocking the entrance to the [[Goron Racetrack]]. Later on, Link can use it to blow up the giant rock in front of [[Romani Ranch]] on the first day in order to get [[Epona]] back and complete other side quests before the third day (when the rock is broken by the carpenter). It is also used in [[Ancient Castle of Ikana|Ikana Castle]] to create a hole in the roof. Link can only carry one at a time because they are extremely heavy.

In ''Twilight Princess'', Link can carry Water Bombs that are able to explode underwater. To place a Water Bomb in the water, Link must be submerged in the water and be wearing the [[Iron Boots]]. Water Bombs can be purchased early on in the game from [[Barnes]], and later, if [[Malo]] opens his shop in [[Castle Town]], the Water Bombs can be purchased there for a very low price. To get the Water Bombs for free, Link can fish in a place with [[Bombfish]]([[Lakebed Temple]] for instance). Link can catch them and store them in his [[Bomb Bag]].

Bomblings are an enemy found in the [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]] in ''Twilight Princess''. However, after Link completes the [[Lakebed Temple]], [[Barnes Bombs|Barnes Bomb Shop]] in [[Kakariko Village]] will carry them in item form. Link can hold 10 in his normal [[Bomb Bag]] and 20 in the [[Giant Bomb Bag]], that he gets from [[Iza]]. Bomblings act like [[Bombchu]]s, moving forward after they are placed. Unlike Bombchus, Bomblings are unable to move on walls or ceilings.{{clear}}
