Nope, it's an Original Chinese Pirate of Zelda 3 for the Famicom (Link's Awakening Pirate Famicom cart exist too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthkur Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 The screenshots really look like it's an NES version of Link's Awakening. So what's the story here on this? Any more details? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wickeycolumbus Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 The NES pirate version of Link's Awakening does not seem to be done as well as A Link to the Past. There is also a port of The Minish Cap. Here are some game play videos: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Last I checked most all those Zelda ports use mapper 183 which is not very easy to reproduce on real hardware. If your into emulation sure they are kinda neat but I prefer to play 8bit games on 8bit hardware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Just trying to help... I apprciate it. I should have been more clear that I would only want these if I was able to apply an IPS patch to change them to enlish and also be able to use the patched version on a real cart on real hardware. Mapper 183 means no dice, and as of current I think only the GB port has been translated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
