Nintendo’s Zelda Notes App Makes Ocarina of Time Hunting Easier

What changed

Nintendo’s Zelda Notes companion app is making collectible hunting easier in the Ocarina of Time remake. Its maps help players locate all 100 Golden Skulltulas scattered across Hyrule, along with other collectibles.

Why it matters

The app changes the game’s most tedious scavenger hunt without replacing exploration. Players can still search Hyrule themselves, then use the map to check whether a missed secret is hiding nearby.

That makes the app feel less like a walkthrough and more like a practical second screen. The useful design choice is restraint: it helps track progress after discovery, rather than turning the whole game into a checklist from the start.
