GCN バグなし (JP Glitchless) 100%

Notes:

Bug Limit is, by definition, No Save and Quit. Files don't matter.

There are some places in the route which offer options on how to proceed. The faster option is listed on top, but is likely a fair bit harder. These tend to be relatively short divergences.

If running on Wii, see the identical Wii route here.

Quick reminder: This is No Save and Quit. Get the rupee textboxes out of the way.

  • 5R should be gotten from the rock on D2 if you did not get enough rupees on D1. If you did, it'll get grabbed the first time you collect a blue rupee later. Reminder that Cave of Ordeals is a thing, so don't skip this textbox.
  • 10R should be gotten from the rooftop rupees after the fishing rod on D2.
  • 20R could be grabbed from an early-game chest (such as the one in the Elde Inn if you get it), but if not then from the first redead drop in Arbiter's Grounds. Not very many 20s, so this text can be skipped if you want.
  • 50R will be gotten from Agitha, on the first trip. Not many 50R drops, but you get the box out of the way regardless.
  • 100R will also be gotten from Agitha, on the first trip. There are some 100R drops to take advantage of this on. The drop in Ordon should be collected with a textbox skip in some form.
  • 200R drop is only seen twice; the Kakariko Sanctuary Bell and F39 of Cave of Ordeals. Skipping it is fine.
