You didn't have a hard time with Dark Link?  Man . . .

The first N64 version has a weird glitch where you can just stand on the little island in the middle and wail on him with the Megaton Hammer, and for some reason he usually won't fight back as long as you don't Z-target him.  This seems to have been removed from subsequent versions (along with dumb things like the change to the Fire Temple music).  I used to do it that way because he was too blasted difficult otherwise, but eventually I fought him properly, which required fairies and liberal use of Din's Fire.  Pretty quickly I learned never to use the stab move because he jump-slashes whenever you try, taking two hearts instead of the usual one, and he can block most of your other moves as well.  How did you defeat him so easily?
