* The game's opening scroll begins with "[[BlindIdiotTranslation MANY YEARS AGO PRINCE DARKNESS GANNON STOLE ONE OF THE TRIFORCE WITH POWER]]".
* At the end of the game's opening scroll, you can see Link [[TalkingWithSigns holding up a ridiculously large sign]] that says [[ReadTheFreakingManual "PLEASE LOOK UP THE MANUAL FOR DETAILS."]]
* During the game, bombing your way into the wrong caves results in you losing rupees as the old man inside makes you pay for the "door repair charge". These become a lot more frequent in the second quest.
* One of the hint ladies simply goes "PAY ME AND I'LL TALK." So logically, you pay her the maximum amount of rupees for some really useful info, only for her to just say, "Boy, you're rich!" [[ExactWords Well she did say she'd talk if you paid her.]]
* Old men found in labyrinths avert FriendlyFireproof, taking damage from your weapons and even retaliating with plasma balls from their nearby fires. Whaling on them can be rather therapeutic if you're frustrated from their cryptic hints, although they cannot be killed.
