3DS Zelda Oracle of Ages/Seasons

Re: 3DS Zelda Oracle of Ages/Seasons

I actually find the Oracle games to be a big disappointment compared to Link's Awakening. The dungeons disappointed me and felt very unnatural, the bosses disappointed me, the overworld in Seasons disappointed me. Although I did love the time travel & overworld in Ages.

I just replayed them both over the last year

To each his own, I guess. I purchased Link's Awakening last year and so far I don't dig it that much. I find it really confusing and the engine flows better in the Oracle games, even though its the same exact engine they used.

Unless there's a hard copy of this I won't be getting it. I have no wifi to get these games and no time to sit somewhere and wait for it to download.

Seasons took a minute maximum to fully download for me so there's no long wait times.

They lead you around like a dog in the oracle games. I love how natural LA is and how less direct everything is.

the world is so damn natural

Only small shame is the fact that there's no Advance Shop, so no 100% completion. Oh well.

Picking up Ages with my next paycheck, working my way through Seasons now. I enjoy these a lot more now than I did as a kid, and I loved the hell out of them when I was younger.

They took out the Advance Shop? Bummer! (Meh, I never cared for 100%, the Green Ring was hard enough to get)

Easy trick in Seasons to get the gasha nut heart piece: There's a buried patch of soil near the entrance to the sixth dungeon (two screens right and one down from the Gale Tree in the top-left corner of the world map). Plant a seed there, beat the dungeon, then head right for it and there should be your Heart Piece.

It's not like the game told you it was completed 100% in the first place... No big loss. These advance rings did absolutely nothing.

In Oracle of Ages, how are you supposed to enter the cave by the fairies forest? I think it has something to do with bombs, I just don't know where to find them.

I'm your man, I've got all the answers!

In the forest, search every corner. You'll eventually stumble upon a mystery seeds tree. Take them. A soldier will spot you and tell you than Queen Ambi was looking for them. Hel'll take you to the palace. The rest is straightforward.

I decided to get the games, started with Oracle of Seasons and is it just me or is the boss in the Tarm Ruins hard to beat?

Thanks, man. I have successfully gotten halfway through the second dungeon now.

Not just you. Manhandla can be an absolute bitch with all the conveyor belts pushing you towards the center of the room and just how mobile he is. Equip the Magic Boomerang and the Roc's Feather, find your favorite island, and each flower requires 3 hits with the boomerang to destroy, using the feather to dodge as needed. After managing to destroy all the flowers, a few more boomerang hits to the body will expose his core. When you pull this off, all that's left is to run up, pull out your sword and destroy him. (You do have the Noble Sword, right?)
