===Cartridge Versions===
===Cartridge Versions===
There are three different versions of game cartridges: ''1.0'', ''1.1'', and ''1.2''.  The differences are minor, but include cartridge color (''1.1'' and ''1.2'' are gray, ''1.0'' can be gold or gray) and the swordless glitch in ''1.0'' that was fixed in ''1.1''. Also from version ''1.0'' to version ''1.1'', a glitch where you could steal the fishing pole was removed. From version ''1.1'' to ''1.2'' the color of [[Ganon|Ganon's]] blood was changed from red to green. Minor glitches in the [[Twinrova]] fight scene were corrected. In-game elements relating to Muslim culture, such as the background music of the [[Fire Temple]] (which included a choir that Nintendo felt resembled a holy Muslim chant), as well as the emblem on the [[Mirror Shield]] (whose design was a crescent moon and a star, also a symbol associated with Islamic culture), were altered in version ''1.0'', ''1.1'', and ''1.2'' to avoid offending Muslims.<ref>[http://hyrulianreligion.webs.com/shields.htm Religion in The Legend Of Zelda]</ref> The shield design was [[Gerudo Symbol|changed]] in the [[GameCube]] version. The symbol is also seen on other more minor objects such as blocks. In each subsequent version until 1.2, some very minor pieces of dialog were re-translated. In the Forest Temple's Block-Puzzle room, when you shoot the golden eye with an arrow in version 1.0 you get a bundle of arrows; versions 1.1 and 1.2 give a Small Key instead.

All Japanese cartridges for the Nintendo 64 are version 1.0. In North America, all three versions were released (in fact, all gold cartridges were 1.0). In Europe, only 1.1 and 1.2 were available. The Virtual Console release seems to be 1.2, once again with the emblem change from GCN versions.
