Glitches in Twilight Princess

These are the glitches which are possible to perform in Twilight Princess. Please read the Glitch Disclaimer Notes before attempting any of the glitches on this page.

Magnetic Ceiling Glitch
This can be done wherever there is a magnetic ceiling, such as the first one encountered in the Goron Mines. First equip the Iron Boots but don’t put them on. Go under the magnetic field and equip the boots. In mid flight up to the ceiling press the button that leads to the item screen and put an item where the iron boots were. Make sure the Iron boots are not equipped anywhere on the screen. Unpause the game and finish flying onto the ceiling. You should be on the ceiling with the Iron boots off and you will stay there and be able to walk faster. To get down walk off the magnetic part of the ceiling or equip and unequip the Iron Boots.

Unlimited Bomb Glitch
First, as a wolf, play Plumm's minigame with the fruit and crash. Then, turn back into a human and turn to the water behind you. While swimming in it, equip the Hookshot, and while it is held out, strafe to the side and through the wall. If it works, you'll be swimming through the wall. Keep swimming until you fall and die. Now as you wake up Plumm will come back and ask to to play again. Say yes. Then crash at the beginning again. You should wake back up in the beyond-the-wall area from before, but you can stand. Turn into a wolf and jump into the waterfall. Then you'll wake up in front of Iza's assistant.Talk and say yes, and you'll go to her cabin. The boat will take off without you, and you'll be a wolf. So now, warp anywhere you want, and you'll have infinite bombs. Note: This ends when you turn off the game!

Arbiter's Grounds Death Glitch
As seen in the video to the right, by following the procedures, you will actually be able to climb up a small ledge on both sides the entrance to the Arbiter's Grounds. Soon after being on the platform, Link will die and be warped back to the entrance after reaching a certain point. This glitch occurs in both the Wii and GameCube versions, hinting that it may have been planted on purpose.

Cannon Room Glitch
This glitch was addressed directly by Nintendo, and plagues many of the launch versions of Twilight Princess. While Link is in the Cannon room in Kakariko Village, the player may be unable to exit the room if he or she saves the game while inside, turns off his or her Wii, and turns it back on again. Shad, who was previously in the room, will no longer appear there, however when the player attempts to warp the cannon, Midna will act as though a person is still in the room - however, Shad is nowhere in sight. When Link attempts to leave the room, Shad appears on a separate dialog screen, and asks Link where he is going. This makes it impossible for Link to leave the room by any means, as Midna won't allow him to warp and Shad will not allow him to leave the room.

Nintendo has stated that it will exchange the games for an updated version that does not have the glitch.

Move Renando
If you roll into Renando, you can force him to move almost anywhere which you can acess by walking in the village. This includes, but it not limited to making him fall into the pool water.
