Continuity mistake: Ganon escapes with the Triforce of Wisdom and Link says "We'll never catch him now". As he says this, he raises his right fist into the air. Shot changes to Zelda grabbing a seed behind him and his fist is still in the air. She turns and bends down to plant the seed and the shot changes. Suddenly both Link's hands are behind his back. (00:11:20)

Continuity mistake: The bat tells Ganon that Link is guarding the Triforce. He then aims his hands at Zelda and the perspective switches to showing her through his hands as he uses it like a scope to zoom in on the lizard in her hands. His hands are up for this, but the very next shot, his hands are suddenly back down on his arm rests, and he then raises his left hand again to blast the lizard. (00:08:55)

Continuity mistake: During the fight with the Moblins, the one with the staff breaks the vases on the table next to Link's bed. This also causes the painting of Zelda to fall and break. A few shots later, the vase and painting are back where they are supposed to be and perfectly fine. Throughout the fight, the painting keeps changing from fixed to broken, and even how much it's broken constantly. (00:03:10)

Other mistake: When Link and Zelda fight Ganon and the skeletons, 3 skeletons grab Zelda. Ganon throws a bomb at Link and Zelda. Link lifts Zelda and the skeletons are hit by the bomb. It explodes but only hurts them as they vanish, not fazing Zelda or Link what so ever despite being right above them. But a little bit later, Link bats a bomb at Ganon that is exactly the same as the previous bomb. This one explodes huge and destroys a cave. Two of the same bomb, no consistency of power at all.

Audio problem: After Ganon makes off with the Triforce of Wisdom, Zelda plants a seed and has an amateur magician use a growth spell on it and make a sling shot. Link says "My kinda girl!" His mouth never moves at all while he says this. (00:11:40)

Continuity mistake: Spryte tries foolhardily to stop Ganon from taking the Triforce of Wisdom. She is on top of it as she confronts him. He then moves his hand to her and flicks her away. When he does this, she is suddenly down in front of the Triforce. (00:10:45)

Continuity mistake: Shortly after Link fights the Moblin with the staff, and the vase and painting of Zelda are broken, it shows the Moblin he threw at his bed earlier still under the sheet and struggling to get out.

Continuity mistake: As Link looks out the window at Zelda, the ledge on the outside of the window has 3 lines going down it showing it divided into 4 stones. The shots from Zelda's perspective show it as one solid piece. The window is also skinnier from her view. (00:01:50)
The Ringer - S1-E1
Continuity mistake: When the Moblins attack Link in his room through a sort of trap door, the hole that is the door keeps changing locations, shapes, and the tiles around it all throughout the fight. Some points even disappearing entirely. (00:01:25 - 00:03:40)
Chosen answer: It'll be to ensure that they're always facing directly away from each other, 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock, meaning between the two of them they've pretty much got 360 degree coverage. Otherwise there's a chance they might end up at say 12 o'clock and 3 o'clock, leaving themselves exposed from another direction.
