⚠️ Biggoron Sword on N64 vs 3DS
On the original N64 release the Biggoron Sword (a two-hand sword that does double damage and never needs magic) can break if you save and reload while it’s equipped due to a bug, reverting to the Giant’s Knife. It is reforged by re-running the final step of the trade. The 3DS remake fixes this — the Biggoron Sword does not break there.
