Original Release Info:
Publisher: Nintendo
Release Date: November 21, 1991 (JP), April 13, 1992 (US), September 24, 1992 (EU)
Fun Facts:
There are several portraits of Mario hanging in houses of Kakariko Village, pulling on the portraits causes Rupees to come out.
In the western release's instruction manual, Ganondorf is given the last name Dragmire. This was the result of Nintendo of America's translation team wanting to make their own contribution to the story. This is the only instance where Ganondorf is given a last name.
It is possible to deflect Aghanim's magical projectiles using the Bug-Catching Net. While the timing is trickier than using the sword, the circular swing of the Bug-Catching net can also protect Link from the cluster projectile that scatters on being hit.
