Ocarina of Time Glitches

There are many glitches found in Ocarina of Time. Some glitches can be used in order to perform speed runs, and others for useful effects such as infinite Deku Sticks. Some of the glitches and how to do them can be found below.

Unlimited Gold Skulltula Glitch

Once Link has Bombs, the Boomerang, and the Song of Storms, he can get unlimited Gold Skulltulas by first going to the lone tree inside Hyrule Castle. Once there, Link can play the Song of Storms to make a hole appear in the ground. Entering the hole, he can hear the typical scratching sound from a Golden Skulltula that is hidden behind one of the walls. Link can then blow up the wall and find the spider. After killing the Gold Skulltula, Link cannot collect the Gold Skulltula Token. Walking close to the exit portal, he should not enter it. He then must target the token with the Boomerang and throw it, and before the Boomerang returns, Link must get into the portal to exit the grotto. If done correctly, his Gold Skulltula Token count will have gone up by one, but he can re-enter the hole to find that the Gold Skulltula is still there, allowing him to repeat it as much as possible.

While this works on all versions of Ocarina of Time, it does not work in the Nintendo 3DS version.

Infinite Deku Stick Glitch

While holding a Deku Stick, Link must perform a jump attack at an angle on a wall. If performed correctly, Link will hold a broken Deku Stick which the player can use repeatedly.

ISG (Infinite Sword Glitch)

When ISG is on Link swings his sword a hundred times per second. This is useful cause you can kill bosses and enemies really fast. An other use of ISG is, Link can't jump of ledges, maybe it doesn't sound handy, but it is. When you are using other glitches to skip parts of the game, [[Link] has to walk on smal platforms, he can't fall down when ISG is on. To activate ISG you have to intetrupt a sword stab. A sword stab is when you are kneeling down (using your shield) press the attack-button(B). There are multiple ways to interrupt it, talking, picking up bombs or cutscenes. If you want to do it by talking you have to stand near a person or sign, hold the R-button to crouch, then quickly pres the B-button, to do a sword stab, and the A-button to talk. When Link's sword is glowing it works, you can also notice some camera issues. When you press the A-button (when ISG is on) to put your sword back in his shed ISG is still on you can run into enemies to kill them and you can even climb ladders without losing the effect of ISG. You have to be carefull when you press the B-button, to swing your sword, or grab on ledges you lose the effect of ISG.
