Here is a list of Easter Eggs in the
game. Enjoy (the work of someone who
goes by the name of Ecurevil...):
- After defeating an enemy, press A
without moving and Link will perform
the cool-looking flourish
move(spinning his sword before
sheathing it) like he does in
cutscenes. This may only work on
harder enemies.
- On Epona, press A to get the speed
boost then draw your sword, Link
will hold it above his head like
he's going in to battle.
- When going in to a group of
enemies on Epona, you can do a quick
dismount, and Link will hop off with
a backflip. Similarly, if you mount
Epona while running from the back,
Link will hop up and speed off.
- You can talk to Epona when you're
beast Link. She tells you to hurry
up and change in to your human form.
- The night sky is an accurate
representation of the real night
sky. Stars are the correct
brightness, and constellations such
as Orion and Cassiopeia. The moon
moves, but the stars stay still,
however.
- Hyrule in this game is
geographically very similar to
Ocarina of Time. (flipped
horizontally for the Wii version, as
we know)
- The howling stone songs are all
from Ocarina of Time. One of the
Howling Stone songs is the Requiem
of Spirit. Another one is the Song
of Healing. Another is Oath to
Order.
- Oocca are inspired by M.C.
Escher's painting "Other World":

- You can find a silver rupee in the
Cave of Ordeals, it's in the room
with two Dark Nuts (about floor
#39). Use the wolfs sense and dig
for it. There is also a silver rupee
in the bell in Kakariko village, you
can clawshot it, or shoot it with
bomb arrows, and there's one more in
a chest towards the end of the game.
- In Agithas castle, you can kick
pill bugs. Turn on your lantern, and
the bugs will be attracted to it.
Also Agitha will get frustrated if
you leave her castle without giving
her a new bug. Agitha can also be
found outside the southern entrance
of Castle Town, looking for bugs in
the grass.
- If you go back to Diababa's lair a
second time, there's a bottomless
pit of water.
- In the fishing hole, Hena has a
picture of the fishing pond owner
from Ocarina of Time. If you quickly
look over at Hena after looking at
the Legendary Fisherman from OOT,
she will be scratching her back. If
you talk to her when she scratches,
she makes a comment about it. In OOT,
the Fisherman always was scratching
his back.
- You can grow pumpkins by pouring
water on them, which improves the
items they give. You can also pour
water on certain people for a
reaction. These appear to be the
only use of bottled water in the
game.
- On the way to the first dungeon,
you can steal lantern oil and red
potions from the bird. If you run
off without paying, the bird will
attack you next time and call you a
thief. This is a reference to Link's
Awakening.
- When you open doors in a dungeon,
Link opens them himself for the
first time in a Zelda game. Dirt
will fall off of the door the first
time, but will be clean all times
after that. Nice attention to
detail..
- Ooccoo is the little bird that
warps you out of dungeons. 00CC00 is
the hexadecimal color code for the
green of Links tunic in the original
Zelda.
- Fyer (the cannon guy) has a bullet
bill on his sleeve.
- The Ordon Shield is a one of a
kind item, you can buy a replacement
at Malo Mart, but it's slightly
different.
- There's a rumour that if a blue
chu and a yellow chu run together,
they will form a green chu. Green
chu's likely existed to refil the
magic meter, a feature that was
eventually dropped from the game.
The magic meter can still be seen in
a screenshot on the back of the box.
- When you ask the fortune teller in
Hyrule Castle town for your 'love'
fortune, her chant is actually
"Wait....loading takes a while"
spelled backwards.
- If you go in to Castle town as a
wolf, the guards will circle you, if
you charge the Midna attack and
spin, they will get scared and drop
items and rupees.
- In the Kakariko bomb shop there
are signs that tell you not to bring
in any flammable items. If you take
out your lantern, the shopkeep will
tell you off. If you take the
lantern out upstairs, he will bang
his desk and drop water on you.
- The postman can be found at
various places in the game, but he's
quite rare. He can be seen at
several locations, including
Kakariki village, Zora's Domain and
even the Cave of Ordeals.
- Killing all Guays in certain areas
will cause yellow and blue rupees to
fall from the sky and trees.
- Links hawk can be seen flying
around in any areas where there's
hawkgrass.
- Fire a bomb arrow in to the sky
for an instant firework!
-
Sometimes, Midna hums her own
musical theme. You can hear this
when entering Twilight Faron Woods
for the first time, for example.
- Talo and Malo's names are
references to Talon and Malon of OoT/TMC
- The names of the provinces contain
the names of the Godesses and the
three girls outside the STAR game
are also references to them.
-
Try using the fishing rod on Gannon
in the final battle. He become
distracted, looking at the hook with
a sort of "What are you doing?"
-
You can also use a bottle against
the last boss' first phase instead
of the sword, as a reference to
Zelda: A link to the past and
Zelda: Ocarina of Time, where
you could use the bug-catching-net
or a bottle to bounce Ganon's fire.
-
The triforce symbol on Link's hand
is inspired by Havelock the Dane, in
which he has a radiating light and a
cross symbol indicating that he was
divinely ordained for kingship.
- The light and dark worlds were
likely inspired by the dual worlds
of Orpheus.
- Orpheus is also a hero because of
his instrument, which may have been
the evolution of the use of the
Orpheus story in Ocarina of Time.
- When you catch a
greengill, they refer to these fish
as "small fries" which is what the
painting fish in Wind Waker would
call young Link all the time.
- If you attack a chicken enough
times, you become the chicken for a
few seconds... you can run around
and jump. This works both as regular
link as well as in wolf form.
- The Goron that sells things on
that balcony in Castle Town says
"It's a secret to everyone" to you
at some point.
