Most of the original HUD has been moved down to the touch screen, leaving the upper screen mostly clear of graphic overlays. The only part of the HUD still on the top screen is the A Button prompt, which has been redesigned to look transparent. From this bottom screen the player has quick access to their inventory, equipment, and map. The Ocarina is permanently assigned to the bottom-left. The bottom screen can also be tapped to switch between inventory, equipment, and map, making it much easier and quicker to switch between tunics, swords, and boots.<ref name=zu/> The bottom screen has a camera icon that can be tapped to switch to view mode, which can be controlled by using the Circle Pad. The camera can also be controlled by physically moving the 3DS around; for example, if the Nintendo 3DS is held up, Link will look up. The view mode is also used to aim projectile weapons, such as the [[Fairy Slingshot]] and [[Fairy Bow]]. If the L Button is held, it is possible to slightly look around and increase the viewing window by moving the 3DS; this may have been done to accommodate the smaller 3DS screen. Note that this cannot be done when an enemy is being targeted. Any time [[Navi]] wants to give advice, the view icon will be replaced with a Navi icon that can be touched to hear what she has to say, and her name will flash along the bottom of the top screen.<ref>{{Cite | Most of the original HUD has been moved down to the touch screen, leaving the upper screen mostly clear of graphic overlays.

In this mode, Link has to fight through every boss, one after another.

Throughout the Boss Gauntlet mode, Link can only restore his life between battles by using any of the bottled items he might have with him. | ||

====''Master Quest''==== | |||
To unlock {{TLoZ|colon|-}} {{OoT3D|-}} {{MQ}}, the normal quest has to be completed first. Upon doing so, the player will have an option to choose between the normal quest or Master Quest after starting up the game, allowing a second playthrough of the game with redesigned dungeons. This mode has three save files of its own, separately from the normal quest. All upgrades made to the original game apply to ''Master Quest'' as well. Additionally, the entire game has been mirrored, similarly to {{TP|-}} for the Wii, making Link right-handed as well as flipping the entire overworld map and the dungeons. Link takes twice as much damage, similar to [[Hero Mode]] in other games. Visions are not available in this mode. | |||
