Any% (Forest) (Goron Bag)

EDITOR'S NOTE: This route page is no longer maintained due to being obsolete. Please check the latest Any% routes under the Routes (Wii) tab.

There is a newer revision of the Wii Any% route - Any% BitE Route - that is faster by several minutes. However, that route is much harder to perform due to several tricks being both very precise and a lack of backup strategies effectively forcing most of the tricks performed in that route.

Note that all GCN&Wii tricks/glitches linked in this route are done on Gamecube and therefore are mirrored on Wii version.

Runs should start with a blank file in slots 1, 2 and 3 as multiple files are used during the run.

Route intended for NA 1.0, PAL and JPN

The route written below beats Forest Temple, does Midna Dive and Helmasaur LJA, gets Goron Bomb Bag, completes Lakebed, and does Snowpeak before Arbiter's. However, the Addenda below lists a few other routing options.
