Turn Red Shield Blue
- Effect: changes the color of the Red Shield to blue
- Prerequisites: Red Shield, Ether Medallion
- How To: Go to an area where a Pickit Plant resides. Let it take as many items from you, until it takes the Red Shield. Quickly use the Ether Medallion, kill it, and pick up the Red Shield. It will turn blue until you go to the next screen.
- Notes: The shield will turn back to its normal color when you change screens. This only works in the SNES and Wii versions.
Go Anywhere Glitch 1 (SNES/Wii)
- Effect: Go anywhere
- Prerequisites: none
- How To: Go to any ledge and jump off of it. As you just enter the air, save and quit. Re-enter the file, and be hit by any enemy. You will turn invisible, and be able to go anywhere (similar to the Ocarina glitch in The Minish Cap.
- Notes: This can only be performed on the SNES or Wii version of A Link to the Past.
Go Anywhere Glitch 2 (GBA)
- Effect: Go anywhere
- Prerequisites: Have the Mirror, Pegasus Boots
- How To: Go to any ledge in a dungeon and jump off of it. As you enter the air, use the Mirror to warp to the entrance. Run into a wall with Pegasus Boots. You will turn invisible, and be able to go anywhere (similar to the Ocarina glitch in The Minish Cap.
- Notes: You can't do the SNES/Wii method on GBA because the saving function is different, and you can't use the GBA method on SNES/Wii because it just makes link move slower. This glitch is very usefull, because it allows you to move screens endlessly, eventually allowing you to enter Dark World dungeons from the Light World, (including Palace of the Four Sword) and vice versa.
Flute Glitch
- Effect: Run fast
- Prerequisites: Have the Pegasus Boots and Flute
- How To: Go somewhere in the overworld where there is a pair of wooden stairs. Use the Flute, and justbefore the bird grabs you, use the Pegasus Boots. When the map appears, cancel. When you land, start going down the stairs, but then come off. You will run very fast.
