Talk:Glitches in The Wind Waker

Either I need a walkthrough or...
I was playing and was at the second Command Statue in the Tower of the Gods. I used the Grappling Hook to get across the chasm, went up to the statue, and played the Command Melody. The statue was in plain sight, as you can see on the image, and the game told me that nothing was nearby that I could control. I attacked the pillar, went around playing the Command Melody in several areas, fell into a chasm, exited and reentered, and the same thing happened. I finally watched a walkthrough, and... a cutscene is supposed to trigger? Nothing happened anything like that. I might have swung the rope too far and bypassed the trigger area, but I doubt it. Unless I missed something, I think that my game might be broken. (But it isn't) 00:38, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Note: The problem with the left screenshot is that I don't think you can view the inactivated statue on a inactivated pedestal from this distance- it'd only be possible on the other side of the room.


 * You're supposed to press R to call it down from the pillar first. It says so on the a nearby stone tablet, I believe. 01:04, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh.... Oops. I had given up on it. I watched a Walkthrough, and I didn't notice it, but maybe I just missed it. I really didn't mean to ask for help in the game... Sorry about that. But are you sure there's a stone tablet there? I didn't notice in either the actual game or the three walkthroughs I watched... Sorry. 11:48, 26 March 2013 (UTC)

Cleanup needed
I think some of these need to be cleaned up a bit. A few of the glitches listed seem to be either missing words from the description or are too conversational. I'm not very well versed with using glitches in this game, so if there is someone who is who can make this page a little more readable, I would be most appreciative. --KingStarscream (talk) 18:36, 5 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Which ones for example? I know quite a bit. - PPLToast (talk) 19:17, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't really know, there's a few bad ones, but it's not that bad. What I don't understand though is that a way way more cancerous page like the OoT glitch page doesn't even have an improve tag ._. - PPLToast (talk) 08:05, 6 September 2014 (UTC)

Outset island before Greatfish island (potential glitch activation?)
I was playing wind waker hd and I decided to stop at Outset Island before I went to Greatfish Island and I healed Link's grandma and she gave me elixir soup, have I glitched up the game or has anyone else done this with any ill repercussions? --Dayle14 (talk) 14:24, 23 May 2015 (UTC)


 * The "sick grandma" event is a separate event from the Jabun sequence. There's no glitch involved; the game was designed to allow the player to return to Outset Island as soon as they have the second pearl, and events were distributed accordingly.  --Shiningpikablu252 (talk) 16:32, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
