Upgrading Link’s Deku-Nut Bag lets you carry more of these useful items in the The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake. As young Link, you can use Deku Nuts to stun enemies and create an opening to attack. Your starting supply is limited, but two hidden upgrades will give you more room.

Link begins with space for 20 Deku Nuts. The Bigger Deku-Nut Bag and Biggest Deku-Nut Bag each add 10 to that limit, bringing your total capacity to 40 Deku Nuts.

Both upgrades are hidden in the Lost Woods. To reach the first, you’ll need to be young Link and have the bombs from Dodongo’s Cavern. For the second, you’ll need the Mask of Truth from the Happy Mask Shop.

First Deku-Nut Bag Upgrade Location

Bring bombs and at least 40 rupees before setting out for the Lost Woods.

From the Kokiri Forest entrance, travel right, left, right, left, straight, and left. If you know the Minuet of the Forest, you can instead play it to warp to the Sacred Grove. Enter the Lost Woods from there to find the boulder in the first area.

Place a bomb beside the boulder to uncover a hole, then jump down into the cave. Deflect the two Business Scrubs’ attacks with your shield and speak to the Scrub on the left. It will sell you the first bag upgrade for 40 rupees.

The second upgrade is also hidden beneath the Lost Woods. From Kokiri Forest, take the path right, left, right, left, and left. If you’re entering from the Sacred Grove, go left, right, and right instead.

Look among the shrubs for a hole in the ground and drop into the cave below. Put on the Mask of Truth and climb onto the tree stump to make the Deku Scrubs emerge. Speak to the older Scrub on the right to receive the second bag upgrade.

The Ocarina of Time remake differs from the original in several ways. Other challenges include exploring dungeons from the Deku Tree to Ganondorf’s Castle, finding Richard the dog, and tracking down Cuccos.

For full completion, look for every Piece of Heart and Gold Skulltula token, and find each spot where you can plant a Magic Bean.
