  • The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a game I'll be picking apart mysteries in for years to come. And today we have an interesting one: At one point in my childhood, it was believed that Link was capable of stealing Ganondorf's horse in Ocarina of Time. One difficult challenge stood in our way to making this a reality, or so we believed: Beating Ingo with a normal horse in Lon Lon Ranch. Is it possible? What happens if you do? Well, let's take a closer look at this Zelda mystery and find out!

      I have a recommendation for a video, in Super Mario Galaxy 2 on Cosmic Cove Galaxy, there is something strange I saw in the 2nd star, which is called "Exploring the Cosmic Cavern" or something like that. When you first arrive on the level, if you look VERY CLOSELY in the background behind you, you might see a few small distant black holes which seem to be VERY far away. Could you please check it out to see if its a glitch or a later part of the level? If you read this and plan to make a video on it. Thank You

      Want to know something I've always found funny, my older Brother was born the exact day and year the original Legend of Zelda was released in the US, then my other Older Brother was born a few months before Links Awakening came out, then I was born in 1997 a year before OoT then my little brother was born in 1999 a year before Majoras Mask (and different months than those games) so all 4 of us were close to Zelda release dates and just slowly got farther from the release date, don't know why but I always found that funny. My Sisters weren't close to any of the release dates though.

      The story I heard, and that could be found on many cheat websites years ago, was that finishing Malon's race challenge in under 35 seconds would reward you with Zelda's white horse, which was able to fly.
      I tried and failed so many times before eventually sending a letter to Nintendo Power asking for help. They confirmed I had been fooled, and I had to wait with everyone else until BotW to legitimately obtain her trusty stead.

      Could be worse. My childhood friend spent MONTHS burying "dragon eggs" (they were just rocks) in the sandbox, watering them, sitting on them like a bird, and then patiently waiting for them to hatch. They never hatched. Everyone told him those were just regular rocks, but he said we'd all see who is right once he has his own dragon. He did not get a dragon. So all in all, you could have spent your time in worse ways!

    The two things in OoT that always bugged me were the guy you can’t beat in a race and the guy in the forest who turns into a Stalfos (and presumably eats Cojiro). I’ve always assumed that the race guy at least was the result of rushed development and they never put in whatever was needed to beat him.
    As for the guy in the forest, maybe they didn’t have any plans to allow players to save him, but it does suck a bit that you can’t do it and that Cojiro vanishes too. I think he was the carpenter’s son or something so you’d think they’d be upset about him dying.

    This rumor was also spread around my school back then, so it wasn't just regional.
    Also, I remember a rumor that if you left Epona out in Hyrule Field for too long without moving her she'd get stolen by Gerudo thieves. I became VERY worried about that (I always had a hard time winning the race, so I was afraid I'd have to do it again) for a while until I realized that no one I knew had ever had that happen, so it was probably fake.

I've only managed it once out of 6? 7? attempts on the N64 and only on my more sensitive controller with the joystick that wasn't worn out from Mario Party circle murder. You have to be basically perfectly perpendicular and go at top speed to get through.

    I remember hearing something as a child about there being some event where you could find zelda's white horse somewhere in hyrule field after some happening in the game, such as after the cut scene where she flees with Impa, or at some point while Link is an adult. It was supposedly possible to get the horse, though it was extremely difficult. There was supposedly some trick to being able to get it. I never saw the horse during all the times I would wildly go running around the field just because I wanted to, (and that was quite often) but I did believe it was probably possible if you knew when and where to find it.

    Love your videos when there's an inch of reality hidden under the game's code. However, this one is such a stretch. It's a nice story in a "what if" sort of way, but there's no evidence that Ganondorf's horse was ever going to be obtainable in-game. You even state this at the end of the video as spawning it using cheat codes reveals that it was unmountable. The only interesting bit of evidence that Ganondorf's horse was planned in a bigger scope but scrapped is one of the Shiekah Gossip Stones in the game which details and describes the horse for some reason. I'm surprised that this wasn't mentioned in this video.

      Ocarina of Time is a classic for a reason. I never even played it myself until a couple years ago, but it's fantastic. I'm oftentimes not really interested in older games, so for a game like Ocarina to catch my attention was really something. Obviously graphically it doesn't stand the test of time lol, but as far as gameplay and story it's still amazing to this day.

I recall that drawing and sheathing swords would change a little something on the model of the hilt, something similar to that, or looking like a little eye. Something different from what the official art suggests they should look like.... This has to be a known thing, right? Something people have gotten HD footage of. Since it's such a well-studied game.

    Supposedly you can get the brown horse if you don't jump over the fence. Saving your game after racing Ingo with the brown horse, you supposedly get to keep it. Rumors say it's a bug that was never fixed on a certain version. However, they also say, epona's song doesn't work and you lock yourself from unlocking the cow in your house in Kokiri village. You also have to hunt down the brown horse if you wish to adventure with it. Of course you lock yourself from other events. Like getting Epona and wining the bunny race.

    I didn't grow up with Ocarina of Time. Not because I wasn't old enough, I certainly was. No, the reason why I didn't grow up with it was because I was a PS1 kid. I grew up with Crash and Spyro and Ape Escape and a bunch of other timeless classics from the PS1 library. For the most part, I have no regrets in this regard. Ocarina of Time is the one game that makes me wish I did have an N64 back in the day though. Not as a replacement for the PS1, those memories are too precious to me. But in addition to it.
    When I was a teenager I had a Wii, and one of the games I had on the Wii was Twilight Princess. At first it was rather boring to me, I played a bit of the intro, stopped playing, and put the game down. Months later, I had the weird urge to give the game another try. I put the game back in my Wii, and pushed through the boring intro segment. Soon, I was totally hooked. I played through Twilight Princess entirely many times over after that, I fell in love with the game.
    This got me itching for more, so I did some research into the Zelda games. At the time Twilight Princess was the newest game in the series, and the 2D entries didn't really interest me much. There was one that caught my attention though: Ocarina of Time. It wouldn't be until years later I would finally get a chance to play Ocarina of Time. It wasn't a copy that I owned, so I only had time to play through the fire temple before I had to return it, but I found myself surprised to enjoy it every bit as much as I enjoyed Twilight Princess.
    I couldn't care less about the rest of the N64 library. Mario 64, Banjo Kazooie, Mario Party, Donkey Kong 64, these are games that hold special places in many people's hearts. I am not one of them. The only game that truly catches my interest on the N64 is Ocarina of Time. I also had the chance to play Majora's Mask but... That wasn't really my thing. One day I would like to own a copy of Ocarina of Time so I can play through it to completion.
