Hi, so I purchased a working AST cart from a repro guy and wanted to see if anybody is up for the task of creating the box, manual and map for it.  I seen the PAL format, but haven't found anybody who did the NTSC version.  I'm attaching pictures of the game I bought as well as the PAL bundle I seen...

If you're up for the task, shoot me a PM with your price.  Thanks for the help!

I'll make you a box tonight, maybe a map too. Don't have time for the manual though.

Not 100% but the ROM was originally broadcast in weekly episodes over 4 weeks. I'm guessing the switches select between each episode.

Wow. This is really cool. I didn't know there were different versions of BS Zelda.

The same guy who made this claims he is making a "Master Quest" version of the same game. Says he is moving some items around, making the boss fights a bit more difficult...gosh it's hard to keep up with all the Zelda hacks these days...

I'm amazed at how professional some translations and hacks are. This looks great!

That's cool that he's doing a "Master Quest." I wonder if he's one of the guys from this site. http://bszelda.zeldalegends.net/s...

It still makes me sad that Nintendo never did any Satellaview stuff over here. I was 17 in 97, so my parents probably would've loved to see me play these online instead of the original Diablo. Haha!

Where can I purchase either of those?

edit: particularly, the NTSC copy with the dip switch. I have already worked on a box for this and NEED a copy!

A user on eBay has been making them and auctioning them off somewhat regularly. I think one is up right now even. Same person who has been doing Star Ocean and who has a killer deal on a $25 Alien Soldier genesis repro right now. I don't remember the username, but should be easy to find by searching for the AST game.

Have any GBA NFR games with back stickers for sale or trade?  See my want list below :)

Here it is:

You guys might want to try and contact her, if ebay decides to enfore the anti repro rules, they might ban here and you won't be able to order a copy of the game.

Yeah the prices on those Genesis repros are great!

The dip switches are interesting... I wonder what the inside of the cart looks like? Must be a wire filled mess.

As for a custom manual... I'm assuming it should be modeled after the original Legend of Zelda manual, correct?

After watching a youtube video, I see that it's a BS remake more or less of Link to the Past... so a custom manual would probably want to follow suit close to that...

I'm not sure about that,but the cart itself is heavier than a standard Snes cart.

8 eproms need to be used to make this. So likely they used 4 adapter mounted flash roms.

I would ask you to pop it open so we could see for ourselves what the inside looks like, but I wouldn't begrudge you if you didn't want to for fear of screwing up the switches/wiring on the inside...
