How to use the table
The original bosses test the equipment earned in their dungeon. The table includes Dark Link as a miniboss because the encounter blocks the Longshot. Ocarina of Time 3D adds Boss Challenge, while the 2026 remake has the Hall of Fallen Foes. Use the version badge before assuming a rematch feature exists in the N64 release.
Questions
Which version does the index describe?
The location and gameplay summaries describe the original N64 route and the 3DS adaptation unless a row names another version.
