==Loading and Disc Swapping==
*In the Famicom version, when Link travels into a Town, Dungeon, or Cave, the game will Pause momentarily. It will say '''W A I T''' on the screen while it loads. With the NES version being on a cartridge, there are no loading screens.
*The Famicom version is on a Disc, with there being information on both sides of the Disc. Disc Side A consists of the Title Screen, the Menu, and the [[Great Palace]]. With the remaining of the game taking place on Side B.

When Link choose to save and quit, in the NES version, Link will retain his exact same levels. However, in the Famicom version, the levels will be reduced to whichever currently has the lowest level. For example, if Link has a Level 7 Attack, Level 5 Magic, and Level 4 Life, when he saves and quits, all of his levels will be at Level 4.
