Ocarina of Times Scrapped Concepts

There are noticable differences in Ocarina of Times beta, from unused tunics to its story being heavily altered.



Gold and Silver Tunics
There are 2 tunics that can be seen in some beta screen caps and magazine articles that show Link in a silver and gold tunic. The silver tunic is said to have been used in the beta ice temple as you would take damage from the cold. It is still unknown what the gold one would have done, but it is theorized it might have been used in the spirit or light temples.

The Triforce
The Triforce was originaly planned to be an obtainable like in previous titles in the franchise.

This idea was probably scrapped because the story of the game changed and leaving it in would heavily contradict it.

The Unused Pedestal
If you use a hacking device to move about during the cutsceen in which Zelda throws Link the ocarina of time and go to the pedestal by Jabu Jabu, you will find that he has been moved fairly far back and stepping on the pedestal causes the game to crash.



The Hub World
The hub world had 2 major redesigns before the one that was used in the final game. The first one was Ganons Castle, in which all the temples were connected to similarly to the worlds in Super Mario 64. The second was a fully rendered 3D world that would change depending on what you did to it.

The Arwing
An arwing can be found by hacking the game. Nintendo says it was meant to help develop Volvagia, the Fire Temple boss, but the Arwing fairly detailed, constantly firing and homing in on you. Many fans belive it was meant to be a joke boss that was going to be included with the canceled expansion "Ura Zelda".

Unicorn Fountain
The Unicorn Fountain is a fountain whose pourpose is completely unknown. Theories range from it being the beta great fairy fountain to it being where you obtain the Triforce. All that is certain is that it was in Zoras Domain but was put under te ice so adult Link can't reach it and kid Link can't swim to it. It also has a wall blocking the path to it, making it impossible to enter.



Ura Zelda
Ura Zelda is the unreleased 64DD add on to Ocarina of time, which would have added:

2 Tunics

New and rearanged dungeons

The Arwing(?)

Supposedly gave you a new quest after beating the game

New enemies
