Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time - 10 Things Worse Than The Water Temple

1. Bombchu Bowling

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmJH1KQHgAE You all remember the Bombchus. The cute, but essentially useless weapon that joins the Deku Nuts as items you can easily beat the game without ever using once. They work like bombs, only they move across the ground like a mouse, so you need to stand at a distance and make sure you€™re lined up perfectly, otherwise they will miss their target. So the game designers decided that because it€™s so maddening to use them in battle, why not turn it into a minigame? And so you got Bombchu Bowling, one of the many distractions at the Market Bazaar and integral to obtaining all of the Heart Pieces or increasing the size of your Bomb Bag. The object of the game is simple: use your Bombchus to go into a hole placed on the wall in front of you to blow up the wall and move onto the next one. It€™s essentially skeeball. You are given 10 Bombchus to get them in the hole three times. Seems simple enough, right? Wrong. The first target is fairly straightforward, but the third features a massive Cucco sitting dead in the middle of the bowling lane, meaning you need to either bowl around it or find that precise moment to fit the Bombchu in the small window created by the two other Cuccos. If this wasn€™t bad enough, the prizes rotate randomly, so if you€™re looking for the Piece of Heart or the Bomb Bag upgrade, you€™ll have to keep resetting the game until you get it. Other prizes include 50 rupees, bombs, or more useless Bombchus. Bombchu Bowling is an essential minigame to getting 100% completion of Ocarina of Time, but is easily the most frustrating one.
