Video Gamer X with "The Odyssey of Hyrule" and Kukyfrope with "Abstrussness of Hyrule" proudly present the most comprehensive source of Zelda 64 Gameshark Codes on the Planet. Many hackers and crackers and Code Junkies have slaved hours to get these codes and here today we have the codes that will make Link Fly, make you see and do things you never thought possible.

First and Foremost is the Beta Quest Code, found first by "The Wise Old Owl" and first presented on Kukyfrope's "Abstrusness of Hyrule" website. The Beta Quest Code allows you to get into the beta version of the ROM and access many unusual areas of the game. There are three Versions of this code. This code is important because it allows you to 1. Play the Beta Quest, 2. See the Triforce, 3. Get Inside the Chamber of Sages, and 4. Access bizarre alterations of familiar areas. These will be featured in coming installments of Gameshark Blowout 2000. The first Beta Quest Code was found by the Wise Old Owl and is for Zelda 64 version 1.1. The second Code is for version 1.0 and that was found by Kola. The Third version for Zelda 64 version 1.2 was found by Kukyfrope. If you don't know what Version of Zelda 64 you have, simply perform, Crooked Cartridge and then Video Gamer X's Debug Code and you will see a date of when the game was loaded onto the cart. If the date is 98-10-21 then you have Version 1.0. If the date is 98-10-26 10:58:45 then you have 1.1. If it says anthing higher than 10-26 then you game is version 1.2 or higher. For the record all Gold Zelda 64's are version 1.0 Once you know what version you have simply enter the following codes.

Special thanks goes to the hackers of these codes.

Here's what happened to me when I did the Beta Quest. First I entered the code and I was in Hyrule Field and there was an echo like I was in a cave, then I Levitated with L over the Gate to Hyrule Market Town, then I was warped to the Goron Shop, then when I left the Goron Shop I was dropped in the Castle Courtyard where Young Zelda is and the screen said "The End" "The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time" over it, but I could still move around. Then when I left there I appeared in the Alley in the Market, there a man says, "Hey Sonny, I'll tell you something helpful... I heard there is a mysterious fountain somewhere near the castle..." (First Thought: (Unicorn Fountain). Then I opened the Door Facing me in the alley. I then appeared in the House with a cow in it in Kakariko. The Cucco Girl and The Dancing Guy was in there. The Cucco Girl said, "Please don't tease my cuccos!" The Dancing Guy said, "Nobody believes what I've been telling them all these past seven years!" From there I exited though the door and the game crashed. (Doh!)

When I tried another time and repeated the previous process up to the part before I entered that door and got to the Alley, I walked backwards in the alley (into the foreground) and appeared out of one of the shops in the Market Square. From there I went toward the Temple of TIme, and ended up in a cutscene with Darunia in the Fire Temple, and again the game crashed (Doh!)

The next time I tried to enter Lon Lon Ranch from Hyrule Field and the game crashed. (doh!)

The next time I followed my first plan and entered the alley again. This time I went toward the back of the alley and got to the other part ot the alley. There was a soldier on the ground and he said, "Unnngh...are you the boy from the forest...? I-I-I've Finally met you... I-I-I have something to t-t-tell you... Ganondorf, the Gerudo King of Thieves, betrayed our King... Zelda's Nanny, Impa, sensed danger and escaped from the castle with our Princess... I tried to stop Ganondor's men from chasing them...but... The Princes was...waiting for a boy from the forest...that's you... She wanted to give something to the boy... If you received it from the Princess, hurry...to the Temple of Time... (Soldier Dies!) From there I move into the rest of the Alley and see the guy that says "what's wrong with my loitering here" and the game crashes with a bunch of orange, green, anblue lines. (doh!)

My next attempt was to head toward Zora's River. When I did this I appeared IN the Area near Jabu Jabu, the Zora's Fountain. Jabu Jabu was moved away from the Dock and Princess Ruto was embeded into that rock in the lake. I could see the Zora Saphire embedded into the ground inside of the rock. I walked into the tunnel at the the back of the Lake and the game crashed. (doh!)

I did the same thing again, but this time Levatated into Jabu Jabu. I appeared in the Room where you fight the big Octorock and the sound of the Spiritual Stone. Adult Link had the Fairy Ocarina! (Instruction Booklet Screenshot) I was able to access my Item screen and I had the Weird egg and the Pocket Egg. I was pretty much stuck inside of Jabu Jabu so I played the Fairy Ocarina and played the Prelude of Light. When I appeared in the Temple of Time all the Spiritual Stones were at the altar. I Played the Song of Time to see what would happen and the Triforce above the Door Illuminated and turned Gold but the door didn't open (Ha!) From there I played the Serenade of Water, from there I arrived at Lake Hylia and it was all dried up but raining. There were clouds in the sky. I went to the fishing pond and that was the same. When I went back outside to Lake Hylia I played the Requim of spirit. I arrived at the Desert Colossus and I Levetated to the Platform where the Mirror Shield is and obtained the Mirror Shield. I went into the room with the Iron Knuckle and defeated the Iron Knuckle. I backtrack and Leave the Spirit Temple and head into the Wasteland. I blow a hole in the wall where the Nayru is when I play Zelda's luliby the game at the Triforce Symbol the game crashed. (Doh!)

On my next excusion I went from Hyrule Field to the Kokiri Forest, and when I did this I ended up looking at a cave that I had never seen in the game before it had some kind of brown and green plants on the floor. I couldn't move or do anything. The music for the Chamber of Sages was playing in the Background. ....weird... ^_o is all I have to say about that... possible triforce clue? My game didn't crash, but I had to reset because it was stuck in the cave.

The next time, I moved from Hyrule Field to Lake Hylia and ended up inside of Dodongo's Cavern in the room with the switch where you have to push the block onto it to keep it down. I had no items, and couldn't access the Quest Status. I pushed the block on the switch and opened the door then appeared inside of the Deku Tree where you fight Ghoma! Ghoma was invicible! I had the ability to select the Arrows and my Ocarina. I played the Prelude of Light and the screen turned white and stayed that way. The game crashed.

Well, my tenacity was not foiled yet. I was in Hyrule Field, took out the Ocarina (Although you can't see it because the buttons are all gone) and played the Bolero of Fire. I ended up appearing just outside of the castle by the secret entrance to the courtyard. I appeared INSIDE of a box. I got out of that. I noticed that the map of the area was black instead of blue. Weird. I let one of the guard catch me and the game crashed. (Arrgh!)

My next attempt was going from Hyrule Field to Gerudo Valley. When I walked into Gerudo it said Gerudo Valley, and the screen was all fogged over and the Chamber of Sages music played. The game seemed stuck like that and the map of Gerudo again was Black instead of Blue. I was able to access the Quest Status and I looked at the map, and 3 dots were glowing but most of the areas on the map were whited over with clouds. This was really getting strange with the Chamber of Sages music and Gerudo Valley. The game didn't crash this time, but I had to reset it.

Gamers working with the Gameshark and the Beta Quest code have found that by changing the modifier for the beta quest it is possible to access even more areas in the Beta Quest and have link appear directly in an area. The Following codes were found apparently by "BOB."
