That sounds pretty sweet! Gonna have to give it a shot after I clear some of my backlog. I was ready for Zelda to end because it was taking so long to get to the ending. Still, part of me never wanted the game to end.

Actually, you have the Goddess Sword and have to upgrade it all over again, but this time, the Skyward Slash has the same power and charging time as the True Master Sword. When you get the TMS on Hero Mode, the Skyward Slash charges instantly, so you can spam it. And you only get to keep collection items (bugs and materials), losing everything that you have upgraded till then (potions, equipment, etc.).
If you have a shitload of Rupees (I ended up with the full 9900 rupees), there's a neat trick you can do to carry at least half of that amount to Hero Mode. If you go to the waterfall in Skylof at night and play the harp near a group of butterfly, you'll summon a gossip stone that's called the Moonlight Merchant, which sells you all kinds of upgrading materials. Spend your entire wallet on Dusk Relics (200 rupees a piece) and then when you go to Hero Mode, and are able to summon the Merchant again, you can sell them back for half the price. So for 9900 rupees you can buy 49 Dusk Relics for 9800 Rupees and sell them and keep 4900 Rupees, more than enough for any upgrading need on Hero Mode.
