Always Win at the Crane Game

Move the crane directly above the left conveyor belt using the B button. When the item that you want to pick up gets to the very top of the right conveyor belt (but not on the top conveyor belt), tap A. The crane will move down and grab the item.

Die without counting against the counter

As you probably know, the file select screen keeps track of how many times you die in the game. To die and have it not count against you, quickly press A, B, Start, and Select as Link is spinning around before he falls down, and select Save and Quit. The game should reset. Now load up the file you were playing, and you should continue as if you lost, only the loss will not register on the file screen!

After you get the sword, go back to the screen the sword is normally in, and you'll see a shield. Pick it up, and your shield will be downgraded to Level 0. It works just like an ordinary shield, except it is invisible.
