More leak notes:
other\\CGB\\AZL__ゼルダの伝説 夢を見る島DX\\Source\\Disk3\\DEMO_zelda contains the source code and three compiled revisions of Link's Awakening DX. ".gb" files are compiled Game Boy binaries.
F:\\Backup\\Gigaleak\\other\\CGB\\AZL__ゼルダの伝説 夢を見る島DX\\Source\\Disk3\\TEST_zelda\\CGZEL.bin is a build of Link's Awakening that runs for about a third of a second then crashes on an invalid opcode.
replacing that one bad opcode with a NOP, it's a very broken, very early version of Link's Awakening DX.
It seems significantly more stable starting it up in Game Boy mode (and not Game Boy Color), but the graphics are kinda corrupted still.
The title screen only shows up properly if you let the intro play out. Also, it seems trying to actually *start* the game causes the program counter to throw itself off into random echo RAM, which is bad.
In the same directory, "ZEL.BIN" is normal Link's Awakening, except it already has a save file?
Also the stairs in the well with the heart container don't work. So there might be a lot more to *this* build in particular.
Is the map supposed to look like this here? Where *is* this?
okay, turns out that's the the map of the whole world. i'll admit i've never actually played link's awakening.
F:\\Backup\\Gigaleak\\other\\CGB\\AZL__ゼルダの伝説 夢を見る島DX\\Source\\Disk3\\CGB_samp\\Check.bin is a GameBoy Color test program!
This works on the non-color Gameboys just fine, too, just with less features. Press "A+B" to go back to the menu.
In 'other\\SFC\\ソースデータ\\ゼルダの伝説神々のトライフォース\\NES_Ver2\\us_asm', "zel0.bin" and "zel1.bin", if concatenated into one file, form what seems to be a standard US release of A Link to the Past.
also in that directory is all the source code for A Link to the Past. Lots of source code everywhere in this leak. Exciting stuff.
Do the same trick in "F:\\Backup\\Gigaleak\\other\\SFC\\ソースデータ\\ゼルダの伝説神々のトライフォース\\日本_Ver3\\asm" and you get what I think might be a late prototype of A Link to the Past?!
Correction: this isn't a prototype, this is just the final.

Tip: mention @twtextapp on a Twitter thread with the keyword “unroll” to get a link to it.
