THE LEGEND OF ZELDA: A LINK TO THE PAST (snes)

checked-yes =>Free Green Potion: In the Light World, north of the circle of rocks in the northeast section of the Light World, you will find a cave hidden behind a waterfall. Within this cave is a -Mysterious Pond- which will upgrade a boomerang or shield tossed into it... OR fill an empty bottle with Green Potion. =>Sword Upgrade: In the dark world, the Pyramid of Power has a large crack in it which can be blown up with a Super Bomb. When you do so, you will find a Fairy Fountain -- try tossing your Master Sword inside. =>Magic Powder: Near the Smithy's Shop in Kakario Village is a pit... pound the peg in front of it and hop in to meet a strange creature that will double your magic supply. =>Houlihan Room: The Chris Houlihan room is a top secret, money-filled room which is nearly impossible to find accidentally, and difficult to enter even if you know that it exists. You must have the Pegasus Boots and either Boomerang to enter. First of all, begin your game at the Sanctuary. Switch your item to the Boomerang, then dash out of the Sanctuary and down to the road. Dash left, then down, then right. You will now be at the left of the castle. Dash to the secret passage you used to enter the castle at the beginning of the game. Dash down the path leading to it, dashing through the plant at the end of the path, then dash right into the plant over the passage and you will drop into the Houlihan Room. However, during all your dashing to get there, only stop to stun enemies with your Boomerang (I'd only stun those which would be directly in my way), don't bounce off of any objects, and try not to hit or run into any enemies or to let them hit you. If you did all of this correctly, you will arrive in the Chris Houlihan room, containing a congratulatory message from Chris and about $225 (in case you're wondering, Chris won an old Nintendo Power contest for appearing in a game). Rumor has it that this trick can also be done if you run from Link's House, but it is still unclear. I have only been able to get it to work from the Sanctuary as mentioned above. =>24 Pieces of Heart = 6 Heart Containers: 1)Enter the Lost Woods north of the Fortune Teller and walk north.

Go over the 1st fall, but turn west instead of falling over the 2nd.
