The kids weren't all that hard. The hardest one to find was that kid in the tree by the bomb house. It took me 5 minutes to find the three kids, another 10 just to find that one in the tree, and 5 minutes just to figure out how to get him out of the tree (roll into it).

The kid in the tree was the first one I found and it wasn't too hard to find, it just caught my eye when I was on a high ledge, but I couldn't figure out how to get him down. Him and the one behind the bomb shop were easy, but it took forever for me to find the others. I felt stupid for not looking behind that gravestone in the first place.

Speaking of the gravestone, has anyone noticed how....um... "happy" the dancer by the gravestone is?

Wow. How shitty. Nintendo has to keep pushing us all to get a GBA. Or maybe I'm the only one left on this whole forum that doesn't have one....

No, you're not the only one without a GBA. I don't even know what the hell some of you are talking about? I feel like I suck now, cause I got my WW on tuesday, and yet I'm still trying to rescue my sister right at the beginning. But I only have played it twice. I still play battlefield a lot now.

Well, I just picked it up, and it came with a free Nintendo Power guide/walkthru. Not that I'll even glance at it until I beat the game, but it might come in handy if I decide to go thru the game again to pick up every item.

Mine should be here Tuesday.

Great game , but I think it's a bit too short.

Bought a second bottle from the Rock Spire Beedle (he's the one with all the expensive stuff (empty bottle, piece of heart, and a treasure chart)), so I'm looking better in that area. Also found the Northern Fairy Island and recieved a 5000 rupee wallet

I just beat the first dungeon with the dragon, yippee. My whole view changed about this game once I started fighting. I enjoyed this dungeon much more than the OoT dungeons. One thing that is really bugging me about this game though is how all the big prizes for hidden things and side quests are always RUPEES. Right now my wallet is only 200, and it is always maxed. I thought I found a big secret on the island with the dragon when I took control of a seagul and hit one of the bomb plants on the wall next to a rock with a chest on it. It blew up the rock and the chest fell. I expected something cool, like a chart or something, but my luck it was a 200 rupee peice.

I have noticed there is a lot of exploreing in this game. That is one bad thing about both the Zelda's on N64 is there really wasn't much room left to explore (being a cart system probably has something to do with this).

I got the MAsters Sword, and am off. I have been following those fish trying to find these items to get into these islands but I can't get into any of them yet for one reason or another.

The amount of interaction is simply.. awesome. (burning the ropes on a bridge to have it fall from under you, etc)

I just got the Deku leaf and am (repeatedly) trying to fly to the Forbidden forest...

That's exactly what I was thinking...at first. But once you get that huge 5000 rupee wallet, and you realize how much more stuff costs, plus the whole auction house prices, and that ship with the rare items that are marked up real high, you will start to realize why there are so many rupee treasure chests, and just how valuable they are in this game compared to other Zelda's. My advice is don't go treasure hunting until after you get the two big wallets. You will definatly need those treasures to fill those wallets later.

yea I ended up finding about 500 rupies that I couldn't carry. I got the 5000 now though.
