Die without counting against the counter

As you probably know, the file select screen keeps track of how many times you die in the game. To die and have it not count against you, quickly press A, B, Start, and Select as Link is spinning around before he falls down, and select Save and Quit. The game should reset. Now load up the file you were playing, and you should continue as if you lost, only the loss will not register on the file screen!

Level 8 before Level 7
Cheat Description Cheat

Normally, you can't get to Level 8 without getting the Mirror Shield from Level 7 because of the fire. But all you have to have is the potion from Crazy Tracy. Walk into the fire. As you die, the potion will refill you hearts, making you invincible for about 3 seconds. Now you can walk through the fire without dying, and you can access Level 8.

Wierd Dungeons
Cheat Description Cheat

This odd secret allows you to get to an alternate version of the dungeons, complete with walls you can swim through, invisible walls, strange looking enemies, and other oddities. You can even swim off the sides of dungeons into different ones.

You can actually do this as soon as you finish the first dungeon, but you really need the flippers, as you have to swim all over the place.

Go the the boss room of the first dungeon, equip Roc's Feather, and fall down one of the holes in the side. As soon as the screen switches to the side-on view, hold up on the D-Pad and jump using Roc's Feather. If you did this fast enough (and held up... it's necessary for some reason), you'll jump up off the screen into what looks like a room full of impossibly placed locked doors. Move around a bit and you should soon find yourself in a dungeon with the cheat activated. To get back to normal, just enter some stairs.

Level 3 Power Bracelet
Cheat Description Cheat

There is a way to get a Level 3 Power Bracelet, but it has the same strength as the Level 2 Power Bracelet. It's actually very simple. You first must be inside level 7, Eagle's Tower. Get on top of one of the ledges on the first floor. Now enter a screen at any direction, while doing the Warp Across Screen glitch (pressing select as you enter the screen). If you did it right, you'll be at a location with a treasure chest at the top left of the screen. Walk over to it and open it up. It will look like a regular power bracelet, but when you look in your inventory, it will say L3.

Get a Level 0 shield.
Cheat Description Cheat

At the start of the game, go down to the beach, to where the L-1 sword is. Don't pick it up! Instead, use the screen warp glitch to go west, and hopefully the sword will have floowed you onto the next screen. If it does, pick it up. If it doesn't, go back east and try the screen warp again.
After you get the sword, go back to the screen the sword is normally in, and you'll see a shield. Pick it up, and your shield will be downgraded to Level 0. It works just like an ordinary shield, except it is invisible.
