==={{TLoZ|-}}===
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', the second quest is unlocked after the player has beaten the game, and doing so would replace the file with a picture of Link holding a sword. This new quest consisted of the dungeons being located in different places with an added difficulty degree. The [[Heart Containers]] and some of the shops found in the overworld are also changed to better hidden locations.Gamers could also enter the first five letters of their name as "ZELDA" in the name input screen to start the second quest automatically.

==''The Adventure of Link''==
==={{TAoL|-}}===
Similar to ''The Legend of Zelda'', the second quest can also be obtained after completing the game, and the file of the player would have a [[Triforce]] piece next to their name. The features included are that the player gets to keep all the [[Spells of The Adventure of Link|spells]] learned in the previous quest, and the levels for Skill, Magic, and Life are also carried over. Special items found in palaces such as the [[candle]] had to be retrieved again, as well as any Heart Containers and [[Magic Jar|Magic Containers]] obtained.
The Second Quest in {{TAoL}} can be unlocked after completing the game. The file will now include a [[Triforce]] piece next to its name. During the Second Quest, Link gets to keep all the [[Spells of The Adventure of Link|Spells]] learned in the previous Quest, as well as his levels for Skill, Magic, and Life, making the game rather easier. Special items found in Palaces have to be retrieved again, as well as any Heart Containers and [[Magic Container]]s.

==={{TWW|-}}===
{{main|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest}}
[[File:TWW Link Receiving Hero's New Clothes.png|right|thumb|300px|Link receiving the Hero's New Clothes]]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', many players found the then-unprecedented depth of the game to suggest that ideas such as that of a second quest would be far from impossible. Countless discussions, theories and hoaxes about the alleged second quest to obtain the [[Triforce]] within the game spread around the internet, although any such endeavor has since been conclusively disproved by Nintendo and skeptical fans. The hype was most likely fueled by the aforementioned sense of depth in the newly-developed ''Ocarina of Time'' environment, nostalgia and internet pranksters. The closest hopefuls might have gotten would have been by bringing unused data left on the game cart during development into play via a cheat cartridge, or ''Ura Zelda'' — "Another Zelda".
The Second Quest in {{TWW}} can be unlocked after completing the game. During the Second Quest, {{Term|TWW|Link|link}} receives the invisible {{Term|TWW|Hero's New Clothes|link}} from his {{Term|TWW|Grandma|link}} instead of a green tunic, making him appear to wear his initial outfit for the entire game, while {{Term|TWW|Aryll|link}} wears her pirate dress previously seen in the game's ending. {{Term|TWW|Link}} also starts with the {{Term|TWW|Deluxe Picto Box|link}} in his [[Inventory]], and all the [[Figurines in The Wind Waker|Figurines]] he collected in the first quest are carried over. All of the [[Hylian (Language)|Hylian language]] spoken by {{Term|TWW|Valoo|link}}, the {{Term|TWW|Great Deku Tree|link}}, and {{Term|TWW|Jabun|link}} is translated in the Second Quest, and the locations of sunken treasure found by [[Treasure Chart]]s will be different; usually further away from the island than they were in the first quest.{{Verify|TWW}}

Perhaps due to the hype, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest|Master Quest]]'' was originally planned for the 64DD [[Nintendo 64]] add-on, but was finally released in selected copies of the ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] along with the unedited ''Ocarina of Time''. This production was a revamped version of the original quest with excruciatingly difficult new puzzles and challenges, but a seemingly unaltered storyline.
==Other Appearances==
==={{ZG&W|-}}===
{{Noncanon|Start}}
In {{ZG&W}}, after the ending scene in which [[Princess Zelda]] is rescued, if Link presses the attack button, the second round will start. The second round has quicker enemies and Link's score from the previous game is carried over.<ref name="G&W"/>
{{Noncanon|End}}


== ''Oracles Series ==
==Trivia==
In a manner of speaking the Oracles Series actually has several Second Quests. The [[Password-Linked|password-linking]] aspect of the files, allows one to continue a quest from one title to the next. Things maintained include: your name, Bipin & Bossom's child's name, [[Strange Flute]] pet, and Current Sword. The File Screen will have a different icon. The icon changes yet again if the player uses a password to create a third quest file.
*The Second Quest from {{TLoZ|-}} was created after [[Takashi Tezuka]] arranged the Dungeons in the First Quest in a way that only half of the memory available was used.<ref>{{Cite Person|quote= I created the data exactly in line with it, but then Tezuka-san made a mistake and only used half of the data. I said, "Tezuka-san, there's only half here. Where did the other half go?" and he was like, "What?! Oops, I messed up..." But Miyamoto-san said it was fine just like that. [...] So, using the half of the memory that was left over, we decided to create the Second Quest.|name= Toshihiko Nakago|url= https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Iwata-Asks/Iwata-Asks-The-Legend-of-Zelda-Spirit-Tracks/Iwata-Asks-Zelda-Handheld-History-/Bonus-2-The-Story-of-the-Second-Quest/Bonus-2-The-Story-of-the-Second-Quest-234014.html|title= Bonus 2: The Story of the Second Quest}}</ref>
*During the development of {{SS}}, Zelda's adventure after landing on [[The Surface]] was originally planned to be included as a playable Second Quest. Although the idea was scrapped, this setting was used during the game's credits.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 297}}</ref>


== ''The Wind Waker'' ==
==Nomenclature==
''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'' also features a Second Quest, although more limited in change than its previous counterparts. The game's Second Quest makes primarily aesthetic changes — namely, [[Link]] will wear his initial outfit for the entire game (consequently obtaining the [[Hero's New Clothes]] as opposed to the [[Tunic#Hero's Clothes|Hero's Clothes]] in the First Quest), [[Aryll]] will wear her ending pirate outfit for the entire game, and all [[Hylian Language|Hylian text]] will be translated into readable English. 
{{Nomenclature}}


Link also starts with the [[Deluxe Picto Box]], with the same pictures he had in the first quest.  Because some characters only appear prior to the point where Link can normally reach the [[Nintendo Gallery]], it is impossible to acquire every figurine without starting a second quest.
