=>Secret GBA Shop: If you play the game on a Game Boy Advance, you can access
a hidden item shop with special rings and items. Go to the Lynna Village in
the past and find the building where the target practice game is (the old
man is standing in front). There are two doors in this building: the left
one leads to the target game, and the right one is normally locked. If
you're playing the game on a Game Boy Advance, however, the door can be
opened and leads to a special shop selling $100 rings and items.
=>Mermaid Keys: One of the most annoying puzzles in the game deals with the
two different Mermaid keys you need when trying to play through the past and
present versions of the Mermaid dungeon. To get the old Mermaid key, find
the Target Carts game in the present Goron mountain, get a perfect score,
and earn the Rock Sirloin. This very same game room contains a different
game in the past - the Target Hitting game, where you win Lava Juice if you
get a score of 100 or more.
Go to the present, go to the Goron Dancing room, and give the Rock Sirloin
to the Goron blocking the stairs to receive a Vase. Exit the cave, warp to
the past, enter the cave and give the vase to the Goron blocking the
stairs; he'll give you Goronade. Return to the present and climb these
stairs until you find the Big Bang game. Give the Goronade to the Goron
there, play the game, and win the Old Mermaid Key.
Once you have the Old Mermaid Key and the Lava Juice, return to the past
and find the Goron in the stairwell (between Dancing Room and the Big Bang
Game room) who knows the Graceful Goron. If he sees your Old Mermaid Key
and your Lava Juice, he will trade you a letter for the juice. Take the
letter to the Graceful Goron (dancing) and he will let you get the New
Mermaid Key if you beat him in a dancing game.
