In the Player's Poll Contest, 10 copies of ''The Adventure of Link'' were given out as a prize to winners. In order to be eligible, readers simply needed to fill out the Player's Poll response card and send it in to Ninteno Power. The poll asks players which game reviews they enjoyed reading the most, with ''The Adventure of Link'' being an option. The poll also asks readers to submit what their age is. Lastly, the poll asks readers what games they'd like to see reviewed, what games they plan on purchasing, and other questions related to the magazine. There is a list of 118 games to choose from for this question, including ''The Legend of Zelda'' and ''The Adventure of Link''.

As part of the [[Mail Box]], there is a customer service tip for ''The Legend of Zelda'', along with a piece of official artwork. Sometimes when saving the game, the internal memory is corrupted and the game save file is lost. The tip is that after clicking Save, the [[Select Screen]] will appear. From there, hold the reset button on the console. While holding the reset button, turn off the power to the NES. Doing so will likely assure that the save files that are on the cartridge will remain intact.
