BS Zelda no Densetsu "Broadcast Satellaview The Legend of Zelda" was a game released for the Satellaview attachment for the Super Famicom in Japan. It was based on the original The Legend of Zelda for the Nintendo Entertainment System. Unlike the original Zelda game, this version had a different direct sequel called BS Zelda no Densetsu Kodai no Sekiban (which was based on The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past).
Gameplay
The gameplay was identical to its predecessor, but a few differences exist which make the experience distinctly different. One of these differences is that the maximum number of Rupee (Legend of Zelda)Rupees allowed a player was increased to more than a thousand (rather than 255 as in The Legend of Zelda). The overworld was altered from an 8 by 16 map to an 8 by 8, although an effort to make Map 1 relatively comparable in terms of general landscape features to the overworld in The Legend of Zelda is apparent. As in the The Legend of Zelda’s Second Quest, dungeons are again completely different. This game is sometimes referred to as a "Third Quest", in reference to The Legend of Zelda’s Second Quest. The Map 2 version could thus be considered the "Fourth Quest". Carrying on the tradition initiated in the Second Quest where the dungeon map layouts spelled "ZELDA", Third Quest layout spells "St. GIGA" and the Fourth Quest spells "NiNtENDO".
