The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Bonus Disc was a pre-order bonus for The Wind Waker containing the original Ocarina of Time and as its main selling point, Master Quest.

Due to problems with people canceling their pre-orders after receiving the bonus disc, it was later bundled with The Wind Waker itself in western markets.

64DD Connections

To do: What is the link with 64DD?

There are leftovers from when the game was being developed as an expansion for the 64DD.

Zlj_F.tcg

This is the ISO file that contains both ROM files and the end credits FMV. Curiously the file name for Master Quest is called urazle_f.n64. zle_f.n64 is the normal quest's file name.

Unused Strings

Thank-You Message

thank many many people!!!!!!!!

This very grateful message is located inside the file ________________.ird.

Unused Logo

In "zeldaGraph.arc" is a file called "r16_titl_r.bti" which has a logo that could be the game's pre-release name as The Legend of Zelda X.

The following textures are also in "zeldaGraph.arc":

The Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time X

Going through time, Link is bewildered by Zelda's story. X

Same as the first set of Japanese characters above, except italicized and with shadows.

Unused Menu Background

Inside bg8.tpl is an unused menu background featuring a GameCube, similar to many menu backgrounds for the Interactive Multi-Game Demo Discs. This background often goes unused on those discs as well, which, like Master Quest, are multi-boot ISOs.

Regional Differences

To do: Show these movies.

The selection of trailers present differs by region. The Japanese version has the most trailers and promoted the ill-fated Capcom Five. The selection was overhauled for international releases.

• Those exclusive to the Japanese release include Mario Party 4, Resident Evil Zero, Ultimate Muscle: Legends vs. New Generation, Mr. Driller: Drill Land, Resident Evil 4, Dead Phoenix, Viewtiful Joe, P.N.03, Killer 7, and Final Fantasy Tactics Advance.
• The North American and European releases replaced the above with The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Metroid Prime, 1080° Avalanche, Wario World, and a "Hot Clips" montage.
• The only shared ones between the three are F-Zero GX (under the tentative title "F-ZERO GC" in Japan and "F-ZERO" overseas) and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and Four Swords (which features an entirely different video in the international versions, lacking narration and focusing less on Four Swords).
• The Australian version only has Metroid Prime, A Link to the Past and Four Swords, and "Hot Clips".
• The Korean version has the same videos as the North American and European versions, with the exception of "Hot Clips" and A Link to the Past and Four Swords.
