Download & Changelog. Any way to run BS Zelda on Retropie? There are so many patches and variants of BS Zelda that it's hard to know if it's my rom. BS-Zelda MottZilla Patch (v0.95) only shows a black screen in the libretro version of snes9x, but does work properly in the mainline release (latest testbuild).

I've been following this subreddit for a while and you guys helped me out immensely, so I thought I would post a link to the following thread on another forum where someone made patches for Dreamland 3, BS Zelda third and fourth quest and Mottzilla version, Daffy Duck, among others. You can find the patches on the last few pages. I'd also encourage you to check the compatibility list on page 1 of the thread, as it keeps track of the progress on games which previously caused problems in Canoe.
The patch names which I can confirm work are:
Daffy4b.ips mottzilla_095.ips fourthquest-1b.ips thirdquest-1b.ips Kirby3-1.ips
Thanks to Sluffy!

The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Stone Tablets is a nearly forgotten spinoff title originally made for the Super Famicom Satellaview but a new fan English translation has brought the game back to the masses.
BS Zelda no Densetsu Inishie no Sekiban was a special title for the Satellaview, a Japanese only peripheral that allowed players to download and play games over a satellite connection. The game itself is basically a remix of A Link to the Past. It’s sort of like a predecessor to Ocarina of Time: Master Quest.
You can download this lost Zelda game here. Following this latest translation there are now language patches for English, French, and German.

For a long time, the title was hard to completely emulate due to its unique nature. The game could only be played while it was being broadcast via satellite and changed over time. Audio broadcasts were played during the games, with orchestrated music and voice acting. The elements were missing from ROMs. Until now.
The latest additions to the Ancient Stone Tablets translation includes a dubbed version of these original broadcasts. The four hour long performance restoration covers the entire game’s length. It is among the biggest changes to the translation.

Satellaview Zelda games could only be played during broadcasted times so that the gameplay could sync with the streamed audio. Content was limited as well. Players could only access certain parts of the overworld and specific dungeons depending on what week the title was being broadcasted. The game was played over four weeks and broadcasted for one hour only. Progress would be saved to a special cassette tape to transfer over to the next week.
ROMs now exist for each of those weeks, allowing players to enjoy the experience through emulation. Another game BS Zeruda no Densetsu is also available. It was a reimagining of the original Legend of Zelda for the Super Famicom. ClanOfTheGreyWolf has an episode dedicated to these games and the Satellaview:
