Link's Awakening 'bug': No hookshot needed for third song

You don't need to pull out the Hookshot to get across the pit in Link's Awakening's Signpost Maze, on either side.

However, this little sequence break is all but useless, since you still need the Power Bracelet L-2 to get the Rooster.

So it's really not that useful, but it's cool, so who cares?

Nice to see, but it's no bug: It's just the right timing for the jump! :3

@Tiashima Perhaps, but it's clearly unintended, as evidenced by... well, you know.

[emaciation]

fffffuuu- the way i always did this was from the second farthest space to the lower right and i had to get the can't lift dialogue from the rock, then roc jump directly after dialogue (which is a neat trick as well)

You can also do this in the mountains to get to level 8 after getting the swim shoes.

It counts as a bug, since it's a design flaw in the game.

@Xkeeper0 Yeah, truely. I just came to say this, 'cause a Let's Player i saw last day did this trick in a stage where he normally had to use the grapnel and he finished perfectly the jump like u in this video! :3

So we can say, this is maybe a glitch...

Yes, it's a trick but not a bug.

Nice trick.
