When you complete Zelda: A Link to the Past, you are presented with a variety of statistics about your playthrough, including how many times you died.

If you die and are resurrected by a faerie, does this still count as a death?

Do any other actions count as death?

    Why would someone down vote this! I never even thought of it, but I'm pretty sure no because I've beaten the game with very low death counts and have used many faries

If you die and are resurrected by a faerie, this does not count as a death and is not included in the death counter at the end, but saving and quitting does.

    Wow, saving and quitting counts as a death? This explains why I've never had a death count below 10...

    The GBA version was updated so that Saving and Quitting doesn't count towards the death counter. Then again, it wasn't until Link's Awakening that the death counter actually did anything.
