Although you can collect rupees by cutting grass and killing enemies from the early hours in the game, you can only carry a limited number of them. If you reach the cap, you will have to leave the rupees you find behind, and we all know that in this economy, Link can't waste money.

To help you make Link's pocket large enough to carry all the money you can find, we've put together this guide showing all rupee wallet upgrade locations in Ocarina of Time remake.

All rupee wallet upgrade locations in Zelda Ocarina of Time

You begin the game being able to carry only 200 rupees, but with the upgrades, you can increase this number to up to 1,000 rupees. There are two rupee wallet upgrades in the game, the Adult's Wallet and the Giant's Wallet.

You will find these two rupee wallet upgrades in the same place: Kakariko Village. More precisely, you obtain them by talking to the Cursed Rich Man inside the house on the southeast side of Kakariko Village after completing his requests.

To unlock the Adult's Wallet, you must collect 10 Gold Skulltulas, which you acquire by killing the shiny spiders you can find all over Hyrule. Once you have the required number of Gold Skulltulas, return to Kakariko Village and talk to the Cursed Rich Man. As a reward for breaking the curse on one of his sons, he will give you the first rupee wallet upgrade, which increases the number of rupees you can carry to 500.

The next step is to collect 30 Gold Skulltulas and talk to the Cursed Rich Man again to receive the Giant's Wallet. Unlike the first upgrade, which only increased the number of rupees you can carry to 500, the Giant's Wallet will increase it by 500, allowing you to hold 1,000 rupees. With all this space to carry rupees, you can start thinking about farming them or maybe finding all 100 Golden Skulltulas to receive unlimited gold rupees.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake is a little bit different than the original game, so if you need guides to help you through, we don’t blame you. We have walkthroughs for all the dungeons, from the Deku Tree to Ganondorf's Castle. We also have guides for the sillier, in-between parts of the game, like when you have to find Richard (the dog) or Cuccos.

For those going for 100% completion, we also have guides on where to find every Piece of Heart, every Gold Skulltula token, and where to plant every Magic Bean.
