What a fantastic tuto! I had tried and failed original LA's no ace any% and had no idea DX has distinct method with a simpler boss fight. You just earned a new runner!
Hi and thank you for a great tutorial. You are very great at this game. I have been playing through the whole game, a casual walkthrough. Since I have been playing Alttp a lot and tried a lot of different routes and glitches, I tried this one category in this game. I submitted one of my runs, the ocarina route, at speedrun.com. It would be nice to do a sub five minutes run. This route is pretty hardcore. I have had a tough time with Agahnim and Dethl. Well, maybe one day.
I downloaded the rom from speedrun.com but when im at the screen before the one where you enter ganon boss fight i drown also i cant cross the second screen the way you do it in the dog house and i dont get the softlock on the white screen
Hi! Yes everything in this run works on the original 1993 version, however that game is even more broken than this one, so there are actually even *faster* ways to finish Link's Awakening 1993. You can see Nitroz's WR here: ruclips.net/video/Ub94IghcKpk/видео.htmlsi=5K35kAUquYpv4UMD
+Greed RM first make sure you're using a+b before select then start, if that doesn't help it might have to do with your key layout. Mess around with it a bit, emulators can be troublesome for these reasons
I have absolutely no problems until the Very last fight, you said his movement= players movement, so why does he charge at me after to bow rounds and kills me? since i don't have the feather i can't jump.
The window for movement in the final phase gets pretty tight after the second round of arrows, since his arms start spinning faster. It's hard to maintain the same up+down pattern like you do in the beginning so with bad RNG, you will get charged by him if you are having to avoid his arms. This quirk is one of the most frustrating parts of this Speedrun since it's a combination of both consistent movement and RNG.
Riddler Speedruns I was merely joking, given how LA Switch definitely fixed everything from the GB and GBC releases, but I’m excited to see how speedrunners will try to beat the new version with limited or no glitches.

can i see the ocarina route?
When I try to do the clip part I get warped to the beach. what happened?
If you mean the clip into the doghouse, make sure that you kill only two enemies.
Yo Im gonna get dat PB right now lmao. Thanks for that Riddler :)

If someone is reading can this glitch work with the 1993 version?

And is there a tutorial for that type of glitch or speed run ?@@RiddlerSR
@@RiddlerSR and does this speed run work with the gamewach Zelda edition?
@@Pink_Pig99 I am not sure about the Game and Watch Zelda edition. However, You can find any speedrunning resources for LA at speedrun.com/LA
@@RiddlerSR k thank so much
im using bgb and the save and quit menu isnt working, is there something wrong with the file? i downloaded it from the speedruns website
what is your control layout? sometimes certain keys on a keyboard don't work in unison
+Riddler Speedruns 4,5 1,2 . A,b start,select

So, will you put out a tutorial on how to do this in the Switch remake?
I'm not sure the any% run will be anything like this on switch, a lot was patched so as soon as we figure out a good route I will try to make a video

sorry for saying this on a 4 year old comment in advance
but the NSO version of links awakening DX still works for this route
Do you have to be on the jp version?
No you can do this on any version!
@@RiddlerSR great! Thank you so much!
This video is awesome!! Is there a reason why speed runners use the Japanese version of this game?
Japanese can say more with less text than English can. This means that dialogue boxes don't last as long in Japanese and it saves lots of time.
You should include Ocarina route in this tutorial. Cause Dethyl skip is much easier then losing a run to that bastard. Just sayin Kappa
YippYo I dont Know Ocarina Route :p ask greentunic for that video lol
