BS Zelda -> Not official Nintendo game

Board Guidelines

1 - We ask that you do not insult, ridicule or threaten other posters, old or new that they may be. Also, please, do not spam :)

2 - We ask that whenever you wish to write about later parts of a game, you apply the spoiler tags to said text. Especially if it is something about the game's story, bosses, puzzles or items.
In the help forums however, it is not required to use spoiler tags for anything except the game's story. Failure to do so may result in warning, suspension or banning; depending on the number of times this happened, the severity of the violation (such as describing the game's ending) and possible maliciousness of the violator.
Alternatively, you may create a topic with the words *spoilers for "game(s) name"* in its title. That will exempt everybody from using spoiler tags in that thread for spoilers about said game. However know that said thread may not be modded, unless specifically requested for a violation of these rules.

3 - Due to the high level and frequency of malicious spam bots posting in the forum, registration is required to post replies in any of our forums.

It's one of those so called "pirate games" not because it is an illegal rom dump of an SNES game, but rather because it never went through the official Nintendo licensing process. In fact there is no rom dump available for this game. Being that it isn't official from Nintendo, I don't think there'd be a problem dumping this game and playing it on an emu, because it never made any money for Nintendo anyway. However it is a VERY RARE "pirate" cart. I've only seen THREE VIDEOS on all of Youtube of someone playing it. Here's some camcorder vids people filmed of them playing this game, that they posted on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCczlMyhYZ4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLRvMYfv2lo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O5dc4YuzSlo (at the VERY start of this vid you can see what the cartridge looks like, bad quality vid though, sorry couldn't find better quality image of the cart) If someone here can possibly find a cart of this game somewhere, and dump it, please post the rom up here. I've asked the posters of the Youtube vids via Youtube messages, to dump their game for the sake of the emu community, even sending them links to sites that sell SNES game dumpers so they know where to buy them, but they all decline, citing this is a rare game, and in the unlikely event that such a dumper accidentally malfunctions, they don't want it to end up frying their VERY RARE game cart. So to all those at bszelda.zeldalegends, if you happen to find this cart somewhere, if you have an SNES game cart dumper of some kind, please dump this game cart and post the rom to this website. I'd like a chance to play it myself.

You've got a whole section of BS-X games in the downloads section (mainly of the Zelda variety, but also the BS-X bios cart rom). This game I speak of in the op post is not even an official game, but rather is home-brew game that someone somehow put into a cartridge and sold, probably on the black market (which they shouldn't have sold, because it's unlicensed game, i.e. Nintendo never gave them the cic chip to unlock the cart, but they somehow made it work anyway), but it's certainly not an "illegal rom dump" as the game was NEVER a legit product that was sold in legit game stores, and it NEVER made money for Nintendo or any other legit game company (Capcom, Accolade, Rare, etc). It is a "public domain" game in that it never was (or at least never should have been) sold as a game product. Therefore it falls under the same rules as any other "homebrew" games, and that is that free downloads are perfectly ok.
