*Sigh* For the uneducated, the BS-X was a Super NES addon released only in Japan. It could recieve various different things through a modem while shows were being broacast via sattilite. Probably the most famouse would be BS Zelda which was broadcast for an hour along with a TV show.

Of course I don't own it. There wasn't a legally sold game of it. You could download it, but dumping the files was illegal. Don't worry, I have faith it will be released someday in some form...

I have a Rom of it and it's pretty cool especially the time-activated triggers, which gives me an idea...;)

Its gotta be released in some form on GBA eventually if Nintendo plans on rereleasing The Legend of Zelda. They're not going to use the old NES graphics at least. The Adventure of Link would need a graphic overhaul too. There's a BS Zelda 3 game too right? Would have been nice to see it for the GBA Zelda 3.

TSA, buy a BSX and a bsx card with BS Zelda on it. :p It WAS sold through the BS-X system as you payed for their little service and all. So unless you get a bsx card with bs zelda on it, you don't have all the zelda games, hahaha. :p Oh, and as far as "legality" of Bs Zelda being dumped, nintendo can't do much about it as so much was changed (if you are playing roto's great patch) and they had some problem with St. Giga I think. But anyway, nintendo doesn't care about people playing Zelda or other Nes games for free, or bs zelda. I dunno bout snes games. Last I heard nintendo was only "protecting" gameboy color, gameboy advance, snes, n64. NES, heh, they don't care.

Can you actually PLAY IT on the Famicom System? If it's just on PC, then no...I don't want it or need it.

Somebody once offered me it...but I don't think it was a game.

You can apparently play it if you have a SFC and BSX, assuming you also have the card with bs zelda on it.
