[@superspider64]

I kinda like that they gave you the option to parry Ganons blades if you had enough courage to face him directly

[@Kaitri]

Same never knew this was a thing but i love it, its amazing

[@LITTLE1994]

With Ganon having the Triforce of Power while Link has the Triforce of Courage, yeah, they are going to clash like that

[@OliverG12345]

This is so awesome. Man, I can’t believe you could cancel Ganon’s sword hits like that.

[@Goldsthar]

With your videos I'm realizing how ahead of its time this game truly was.

[@svetlananikolaeva8039]

Saying that this game was ahead of its time is a massive understatement

[@LITTLE1994]

It wasn't called greatest game of all time for nothing.

[@BonesAlexander]

The fact that you can parry Ganon is the best thing ever and freaking badass.

[@mr.80s36]

I want to fight the airwing, I love that the team added the explosion even though it is not in the game

[@rmissing3361]

the explosion is in the game

[@DarkonFullPower]

@@rmissing3361 I think he means the Arwing's explosion is unique, and thus goes unused in regular play.

[@InsanityReborn]

@@DarkonFullPower Actually not the case. Certain fire effects aren't rendered correctly in most emulators, including virtual console; it's well-documented. That's all you're seeing there, is the janky rendering on the fire effect.

[@MisfortunateJustice]

That parry thing is pretty awesome. If you actually imagine a scripted fight, it adds more credit to the Hero of Time being awesome for being able to parry Ganon. Imagining that, with all his later genius swordplay, is great.

[@Glockenspheal]

That way of fighting Ganon is how I fight him nowadays, I parry his attacks a couple of times, Sword-slash him in the face, roll between his legs and strike, I know there are a ton of easier ways, but I just like how exciting and epic that looks.

[@ShadowVincent3]

Back in the day, my friend and I used to look for alternate ways to fight him without using light arrows. Wearing iron boots, Rolling between the legs, shooting with a regular arrow giving us less stun time, using the environment as a distraction etc. Its fun to challenge oneself. I'll have to try this method, add some real energy to the fight

[@Fiercelink94]

The amount of secrets e details in this game is simply unbelievable. Even though I've been played Ocarina of Time for 15 years, I still find things I didn't know!

[@friend_trilobot]

Seeing link shoot down a tiny Starfox ship with a slingshot is wild!

[@Morbutt]

I'm dreading the day when we find all the secrets in Ocarina of Time...

[@Bootyzipperooni]

It never fails to amaze me how you guys can find such specific, obscure trivia within this game, even after following trivia channels like yours for years

[@LancerkingNoel]

The reason for the corral having such a long invisible wall is because Epona must not be able to climb it when you ride on her before agreeing to race Ingo. The exterior fences of Lon Lon are visually higher and they have such height Epona can jump them

[@HomingRocket1]

i was made well aware of the Arwing. It's unbelievable that Nintendo made a fully functional and detailed Arwing *especially* just for testing, even with its own death animation. I think the devs wanted to play with it before it got released.

[@KairuHakubi]

I mean they ported it over, but yeah it made sense, we have a functioning flight game let's use some of its code to test out flying enemies..

[@Soddarkryder]

Those arrows are unnecessarily detailed, love them :D

[@nicocchi]

Hmmm, the corral hitbox probably extends high to make REALLY sure Epona can't jump over it. Also didn't know you could actually swordfight Ganon and that's just amazing. Oh and arrows bouncing off… kinda doesn't make sense for most enemies? Aren't arrows supposed to, y'know, stab and stick to surfaces, especially fleshy ones?

[@Hexstream]

I'm guessing an arrow sticking to an enemy could look weird or glitchy in many edge cases...

[@GymnopedieTornado]

What’s so weird to me is that you can see the Deku Shield on Mido’s House even in the 3DS version. They must have put it in because they knew people who noticed it would miss it?

[@Mrtyjr]

My guess is that they just copied that area from n64 to 3ds which meant the shield was automatically carried over and was not intentionally repositioned on Mido's house.

[@brodude3709]

@@Mrtyjr yes, they just used most of the original code from the original oot for the 3d remake, so it carried over. They probably missed it.

[@eggs8021]

@@brodude3709 They purposefully carried over some glitches and stuff like that so 2ho knows

[@Alexander-ze3ts]

OoT really is a marvel of game design that simply can’t be replicated. It carries concepts and mechanics from the 2D Zelda’s that would make absolutely no sense putting into a 3D game but did anyway because that’s what they knew. For that reason it exists in a very unique space.

[@Hwarming]

I didn't even know that the arrows bounced off, there's so many weird details in this game that were really ahead of the time

[@AlefSousa017]

So many cool things in this video, but honestly, what surprised me the most was seeing that Ganondorf's model changes between the past and future! Somehow I never noticed it before lol

[@eduardorpg64]

As plenty of people said in the comments: it's awesome that you could parry Ganon's attacks.

[@silverthehero1295]

That arwing, with so much detail including blasters and a crash animation, seems like more than an asset for testing. Maybe it was meant to be an easter egg you could trigger but never made it in.

[@HighPriestFuneral]

You would likely be right. There is an unused flag on chests that would make it spawn an Arwing. (There's also a debug flag simply to spawn an Arwing from Link's position.)

[@Zeldahol]

That Arwig exploding is pretty awesome. TAKE THAT SLIPPY!!!

[@HelpTheWretched]

#8 reminded me that for the rainbow bridge to Ganon's Castle to appear, the game only checks if you've completed the Spirit and Shadow Temples, I guess because they assume you must have completed all the others first. I figured this out by accident when messing around in an emulator but it turned out speedrunners already knew it.

[@MrFoxInc]

Part 15, and I'm still learning things. I didn't know about the parry option, that's so cool! I really, really love this channel, these videos are so well made and interesting, and it really feels like you're having fun too, even if it's not easy. That just makes it more enjoyable! Thanks for these videos!!

[@keithtorgersen9664]

“I can’t.. lose!” “He’s too strong!” “No way, I don’t believe it!”

[@abloogywoogywoo]

Its insane we're still learning things about a game over 20 years old.

[@gillygilly250]

You guys are getting so smooth with that custom cam it's insane !!

[@AdolfoWWolf]

Adding one more thing, that Arwing model seems to be the same used in the multiplayer matches, a lower detail compared to the single player one. As always great watch this is, loved to know you can parry Ganon's swords, that's amazing, and i didn't knew that hahahaha loved all of this.

[@EmoKillsBest]

During the fight with Ganon, if you hide behind the rubble he will actually destroy it. It'll drop hearts and items. This might be well known but there was a time i didn't know about it until I got bored and started exploring the arena.

[@ArcRay20]

legit surprised at parrying Ganon. i'd have to take a detailed look, but it looks like he is reacting to it rather than it just negating the attack.

[@5h0ckblock]

The last one sounds like what happens with Dark Link. Now I wonder if that works with all sword wielding enemies

[@BrutalOnyx]

I never would have known about the extra deku shield in the cutscene. Its also right there in the 3DS version as well

[@gaminggoddess85]

I once saw an OoT playthrough where most objects in the game were replaced with Arwings. It was pretty much hell as you can imagine. I think it was ZFG who played it.

[@michaelhowarth8331]

You know, when I watch your videos. I know I will expect to find things I already know. But it’s the hoping I learn something new. Even if it’s one thing. And that is why I watch them. They don’t disappoint and haven’t once.

[@AngraMainiiu]

7:12 The virgin Soulsborne parrying vs the Chad Legend of Zelda parrying!

[@pcm1011]

Between this channel, Any Austin and the recent videos from kenny, I'm wondering just how much detail went into developing games even at this stage. Makes me think we'll discover new stuff years from now

[@themr64]

i wish they would've left the Arwing in the final game as an easter egg, that would've been hilarious

[@HomingRocket1]

Just a secret room somewhere and you can fight an endlessly respawing Arwing for an exclusive mask or something.

[@robertlauncher]

Dang the amount of detail is insane

[@TsunogaiDanshaku]

At least one piece of Zelda merchandise also depicts Ganondorf's dagger - in 1998 the company BD&A produced a line of Ocarina of Time action figures, and the Ganondorf figure has the dagger. It is molded as a single piece & cannot be drawn, and is glued onto his hip, so it's not usable as an accessory, but it is present.

[@Nova7o9]

As soon as I heard the Starfox music my brain said, "Do a barrel roll!!"

[@keithtorgersen9664]

When you said “grabbable” my brain didn’t register what word you were using, so I thought it was some weird terminology. Then I’m like “oh, grab- able”

[@arthurbarros5189]

7:40 the Gorons are proud of you

[@rmat9023]

yo the arwing in oot takes me back to 2006 youtube because I remember project 64 was tight and people were talking about Arwings that can shoot u and you can kill too!

[@SUPERFunStick]

Me, 5 minutes ago, all smug thinking "I already know everything there is to know about this game. You can't teach me shit" Me, right now: "Well, shit. I just learned 2 new things about the game I thought I knew everything about. I'm stupid."

[@BR-jw7pm]

4:18 mind = blown!!!

[@ANDDAY08]

Does Navi say anything when targeting the arwing?

[@SwordfighterRed]

Looked around, apparently not.

[@HelpTheWretched]

And the sound of an Arwing crashing is the same as a Dodongo inhaling!

[@Chaosfox04]

It'd be cool if the Arwing had been left in as an enemy type in regular gameplay. I don't care if it wouldn't make sense.

[@HabsGamer]

When you enter the arwing code (also known as the Kokiri Rock Boy Modifier) you can find strange dots in the sky of Hyrule.

[@melonstuff9creative]

4:28 rat thing: Hey im flying :D While explode: Rat: bruh

[@Froggycolouring]

“rat thing” 😭 Thats a bombchu, and “real bombchu”(which is another enemy from zelda) is what they’re based off and they look more like dogs

[@PrimeTF]

7:14 This must be where SoulCalibur got its Guard Impact mechanic from.

[@Handsome_Black]

For some reason if you hit left on the joystick at the exact time you use the Megaton Hammer, Link will do a right swipe of the hammer instead. Not sure glitch either. It's a fully animated and everything. I've never really known why

[@HighPriestFuneral]

It's slightly faster than committing to a full slam and won't flip over enemies.

[@zeronightx]

The sword parry thing is rad af

[@MartKart8]

I wonder what would happen if one of the default horses, in Lon Lon Ranch speed was increased and moved as fast as Epona and you won both races, what would happen to Link, and would he be able to escape the ranch? No one reason saying the horses are slow, as I already know that.

[@Unchainedful]

An it’s a very simple reason, the horses are slow.

[@odinvolk6973]

Lon Lon Ranch, the fence you jump to get to Hyrule field with Epona is taller so my guess is they made the fence around the racetrack with an invisible barrier so people wouldn't skip the race. if you could wouldn't you just take Epona, jump the fences, and say to Ingo "Sayanora sucker!!!"?

[@devonm042690]

If glitches are on the table, I have something that some people call a glitch, but considering how specific _and_ consistent it is, I think it was more of a debug thing. In the Fishing Pond, if you catch a record-breaking fish, then swim to the center of the pond, face the front of the room, go into first person mode, hold Z when Navi isn't flying to any fish, exit first person mode, and make your way to and talk to the pond owner without letting go of Z, turning in the fish will always result in being awarded the Golden Scale. It works on all N64 versions, all Gamecube versions, and the Wii and Wii U virtual console versions. Not sure about NSO or 3D.

[@SuperSenshi]

Now I'm curious... what's the maximum size of fish you can get in the pond? Does it have a cap, or is it limitless?

[@devonm042690]

@@SuperSenshi There is a limit, specifically there's a separate limit for both child and adult. As a child, the limit is 10 lb. As an adult, I think the limit is 16 lb, though it might be 18. You're expected to catch at least a 13 lb fish to get the Golden Scale, and you have to be an adult to get it the expected way. Even if there was a 13 lb fish as a child, you'd get the heart piece for turning it in. If this hypothetical scenario was actually possible, and you caught a 13 lb fish for the heart piece, all you'd do is raise the bar beyond the minimum to get the Golden Scale, since a record-breaking fish caught as a child carries over to adult if you haven't already caught a record-breaking fish as an adult by then. The Hylian Loach, which gets released after the fisherman weighs it because it's an endangered species, is almost 30 lb, but you always get a purple rupee for that, not to mention the special characteristics of the fish that require their own consideration when trying to catch it, so it doesn't count. The method I mentioned can be done as a child. In fact it's the first trick done in a very challenging challenge run. Honestly, I only thought to bring it up because the glitch that allows you to skip Ganon's Trials by unloading the barrier is the last trick in that same run.

[@SuperSenshi]

@@devonm042690 Ah, okay. I didn't know if you could break the record, leave, re-enter, and break the record again.

[@devonm042690]

@@SuperSenshi You can break the record multiple times in one fishing session. It's just that there's a limit to how many times you can break the record, because eventually you run out of bigger fish. Also, as the pond owner says you can only keep one fish. That means if you want to turn in every record-breaking fish you catch you have to return to the counter for a weigh-in each time. After you weigh-in your fish, if it's a record breaker it goes in the display tank at the counter. If you catch a fish that doesn't break the current record but you choose to keep it, you can just catch a bigger one and you'll be asked if you want to release your previous catch.

[@XradicalD]

Link was doing Metal Gear Rising parrying all the way back. Game is legendary.

[@nintendoborn]

I’ve reached the extent of my knowledge in this game, crazy. Can’t wait to see what else you make!

[@Raycloud]

In the lore for A Link to the Past it is said that Ganon grabbed the Triforce with blood stained hands after killing his followers (fellow bandits) to claim the Triforce for himself. I wonder if he used that blade to do so.

[@autochat]

2:13 also his toy had a blade too, I remember my dad buying a Ganondorf for me and a Link for my sister, I end up losing the blade.

[@cainanneedham9022]

These are some of my favorite videos on KZbin. Always super interesting.

[@flamestrikereaglesus1844]

Idk if it counts as a cool fact or not, but the pots that fly at you will try to always get to Link's current level before flying at him - Like in the Colossus room in the Spirit temple, if you walk up her arms the pot will spent a few secs raising until it can hit Link XD Thought it was cool

[@MarkMaker]

Do you think you might make videos like these for Starfox 64 as well? I'd love to see them if you do! If not, that's okay! I already love all the Zelda and Mario videos. ✨

[@FCFoulCaptains]

No tektites were harmed during the making of this video

[@alarex8204]

These videos are so entertaining! Thank you!

[@DanielAlejandrOrloff]

¡Espectacular!

[@Supervideoslink16]

There are four ways to get out of Lon Lon Ranch, three of them are from the fences and the other is one time occasion and it is that you can jump over Ingo when he traps you after you get Epona. I didn't know about the Ingo one after years maybe I'm just dumb but other people didn't know about jumping over the fences.

[@WhoIsSirChasm]

It looks like the fence of the corral matches the size of the entrance gate. Maybe it was a shortcut to make escaping the ranch more difficult?

[@jechumanzanares3542]

Ive noticed the arrow flying places before and thought you can pick them back up lol

[@AmanaHB]

Parrying the attacks with the sword is pretty cool

[@Kakeen]

I love absolutely love this series, keep up the great work!

[@jongameaddict]

My guess is #6 was made to stop Epona from jumping out of there

[@alexanderjones9241]

My guess is that they made those particular fences in Lon Lon Ranch really tall so Epona couldn't jump over them when learning to ride or during races.

[@chemione8965]

I think there's nowhere you can find these fun facts, looygi bros is getting hype, even one day I was watching a reel of one of the best latin American Nintendo curiosities, and they show a fun fact from looygi bros, obviously they gave him credits by mentioning his channel's name, but it feels so good to be suscribed on the best channel and being the first one realizing fun facts that you could get it in months from another channels

[@Godofyoutube999]
