Maybe this is a dumb question, but why is it that I can only get 200 rupees? Is there a point later in the game when I’ll be able to collect more then that. It’s weird, it’s almost makes me think there’s a glitch in the game, if it weren’t for that limit, I’d have 100’s more by now.

You’ll come across fairys later in the game that expand your rupee wallet, up to 5,000 to be exact. Just be patient.

**skaterboarder87** has answered the question already, but if you get stuck in the future, I will mention [a forum dedicated to this game](http://www.gametalk.com/talk/cube/the_legend_of_zelda_the_wind_waker/) that I have found rather helpful.

Thanks, that’s kinda what I figured, I just wanted to make sure.
