BS The Legend of Zelda - Week 1 Voice Acting Translation
Naturally, because we have already translated the text in the game (and made a patch of it), this translation ignores ingame text completely and focuses on the voice acting. There is however an exception: all text appearing at the beginning of the video during and before the loading of the game. This because said text was not available to us before the video was found. And any instance of it in this translation will be marked as such.
With all that said, enjoy the translation!
BS The Legend of Zelda
Week One Intro Female Announcer: We will
now transmit the BS Legend of Zelda Chapter 1. This program is the first game
program in the world to be broadcast through a satellite connection so that all
players nationwide can play within the same game environment in real time. You
can now enjoy the appeal of a game with voice acting and background music in
high-quality BS sound. This game is a program that exists only in SZelda Time.⬝
You will be unable to save it to the memory pack. And now we welcome you to the
wonderful world of Zelda! Narrator: Long, long, ago, this world was created
by the gods. The gods, as proof of their great power, left behind an artifact
of three golden triangles, the Triforce. One ruled power, one governed wisdom, and one forged
courage. Until the appropriate people would appear to inherit them, each of the
three crest-bearing Triforce pieces slept in a Sacred Realm known to no one. SSomewhere, descended from heavens, there lies a golden
power. The wishes of those it shines upon are conveyed to the gods.⬝ These are the words passed down in the land of Hyrule. SObtain the golden power of the Triforce and your wishes
shall be granted.⬝ Those captivated by the legend sought the Sacred Realm for
themselves. However, of all people, the first to open the gate to the Sacred
Realm and obtain the Triforce was Ganondorf, leader of the thieves. It was at
this moment that the king of evil, Ganon, was born. Before long, Ganon"s malice spread over Hyrule and sinister
events began to occur one after another. The King of Hyrule therefore commanded the Seven Sages and
the Knights of Hyrule to seal away the source of the malice. The people of Hyrule, by divine revelation, had created the
Master Sword, a sacred blade with the power to defeat any evil that may steal
the Triforce. The people waited for a hero with the power to wield the
sacred Master Sword to appear. However, the force of Ganon"s malice did not
wait for the hero"s coming and pressed closer to the royal palace where a grand
battle unfolded. After great sacrifice, the sages at last succeeded with the
seal, and as the curtains fell on the conflict known the Sealing War, peace
visited the land of Hyrule once more. Zelda: My name is Princess Zelda. I have been
imprisoned in a dungeon by an evil power. Rise quickly. Hero. Hyrule... Hyrule is
in danger! Narrator: A puzzling message shatters the
moment"s peace. Hurry, Hero. Return peace to the land of Hyrule once more! Week 1 18:06 Old Man: Welcome, Hero. The people of this land
have all been awaiting your arrival. Aaah, do not be surprised. I knew that you
would come to this land, guided by the stars. Now then, Hero. Gather the pieces
of the Triforce that were snatched away and bring down the Evil King, Ganon. I
shall send power to you from here. One more very important thing. This world
exists only within a predetermined time. When the moment comes, this world,
like a dream, shall vanish. To begin, seek out the Evil King"s dungeons said to
lie somewhere within this land. Hurry, Hero. Take this sword. 18:07 Narrator: There are things that you must learn
that will aid you on your quest. Press the A and Y button to use your sword.
Please press them now. Next I want you to press the X button. This is called
the subscreen. Here you can manage the items you possess. To choose a held
item, press the X button to return to the game after making your selection and press
B to use the item. To switch the item you want to use, press the X button again
to call up the subscreen. There is also a way to switch items using L and R. I
will pray for your good fortune. 18:08 Narrator: According to the old man the Triforce
lies within the dungeons of the Evil King. Rumor has it that the dungeons boast
a variety of traps. This week, you will be searching for the Level 1 and Level
2 dungeons. You should soon be able to find the first dungeon. However, Level 2
remains hidden somewhere. Whether on the overworld or within a dungeon, the Evil
King"s underlings will target you. When your power to fight foes has been
exhausted, the fairies will offer you their protection. The springs are where
they dwell. 18:10 LISTEN CAREFULLY start Old Man: Where are you, Hero...? Where are you
fighting now...? There"s no mistake that with your current power, you face a
difficult battle. For just a little while, your sword will be granted power. Do
you understand? All those who hear my voice now fight upon this land. LISTEN CAREFULLY end Narrator: What"s this?! Even though your life is
not full, the beam yet issues forth. You may be able to recover the Triforce
during this time. However, be conscious of the life you have remaining. Plunge
in hastily and you may be defeated. 18:11 Narrator: In order to buy goods from merchants,
a currency known as rupees is necessary. Bombs... keys... It is best to be ever
conscious of your amount of rupees. You will know by the number shown at the
top of the screen. As one might expect, the shield the merchants sell is more
powerful than the one you currently possess. It can defend against the balls with
which the Zoras, who emerge from the water, attack. 18:15 Narrator: The sword"s beam no longer issues
forth. The effect appears to have worn off. It seems you must now fight with
more caution than ever. Narrator: Perhaps you have obtained a bomb
somewhere. You can use the bomb with the B Button. It is said that within this
earth there are cliffs and walls that can be destroyed with bombs. In dungeons,
particularly, are statues of faces embedded in the walls. It is said some of these
stone statues can be destroyed using bombs. It is also said that somewhere
there are mysterious blocks that move. 18:17 Old Man: How fares the battle? I am now
perusing some sealed forbidden manuscript. I shall try using the spell that is
in the Chapter of Lightning, directing it against the Evil King's minions. Mhh⬦ ah-aah! 18:20 LISTEN CAREFULLY start Old Man: Listen well,
Hero. A heart container has appeared before my eyes. There's no mistake, it is
something newly washed ashore. I can hear the sound of the waves. Should you
obtain the heart container, I believe it will help you in your fight. LISTEN CAREFULLY end 18:21 18:22 Narrator: Let's use this time to review items used with B. Bombs are a very
powerful weapon. However, not only can you attack with them, they can also be
used to break walls. This is important, so be sure to remember it. Let's try to
break a stone wall. 18:25 Narrator: The boomerang can be used to stop enemies in their tracks. It is
also useful for retrieving things too far to reach. Furthermore, you can throw
it diagonally. A bow is required to use arrows. A bow is
located in one of the Evil King's dungeons. Merchants sell arrows. However,
whenever you fire the bow your rupee count will decrease, so pay attention. 18:30 LISTEN
CAREFULLY start LISTEN CAREFULLY End 18:31 18:32 Mmh⬦ aah! 18:35 LISTEN
CAREFULLY start LISTEN CAREFULLY End 18:36 18:37 18:40 LISTEN
CAREFULLY start LISTEN CAREFULLY End 18:42 18:45 LISTEN
CAREFULLY start A figure that strides on, enveloped in
smoke, destroying monsters, rocks and walls...! This is not my own power. The power of the
stars that guide you through this world emerges through me. LISTEN CAREFULLY End 18:50 18:53 LISTEN
CAREFULLY start LISTEN CAREFULLY End 18:54 Narrator: Only a little time remains. Did you collect the 2 Triforce pieces?
18:55 Narrator: This world will soon disappear. Hurry. Hurry! 18:56 18:57 Old Man: You fought well to the very end, Hero. I witnessed your bravery
from here. Today's fight is finished, but that does not mean your mission is
over. When this world appears again, perhaps you will arrive at my door once
more. Next week, you should take care of anything you believe may have been
left unaccomplished. These memories will not vanish for as long as your fight
continues. Until next time.

However, even the Seven Sages were unable to wield it.
If you do not set to fulfil your mission immediately, you will be failing to
them.
Narrator: What could the heart container
that appeared to the old man be? And the place where the waves can be heard?
The heart container under the eastern pier has been there from the beginning.
It looks like you can't obtain it at the moment. That must mean there's another
place where you can hear the sound of the waves.
Narrator: Have you found any breakable
walls or cliffs yet?
Put your bombs to good use because, considering there"s caves of old men and
merchants, there is only one way to do that.
Narrator: It's said that there's an old
woman who lives in a hidden cave among the cliffs. Wherever could she be? Rumor
has it that the old woman sells life-restoring medicine. That's something you
want to get after delivering the letter. You should do so quickly.
Narrator: We know there are two
Triforce pieces to find. However, only one dungeon entrance can be seen...
It appears the second entrance's location can not be found without bombs.
18:23
Old Man: What's the matter, you say? The fairy living in the spring has
disappeared. This, too, may be an act of the Evil King. We cannot leave things
like this. We must find the whereabouts of the fairies.
Narrator: The fairy in the spring has
vanished. It seems the power of the Evil King is having an effect. Without the
fairies, the battle will become difficult. You've got to be careful.
Narrator: Even defeating an enemy will
not cause any fairy to appear. It's dangerous like this. You'll want some
life-restoring medicine.
Old Man: I shall try using the spell located in the Chapter of Fate in the
forbidden tome.
⬦that wasn't very helpful.
Old Man: Somehow, I've figured out the whereabouts of the fairies. Now we
can borrow their powers.
Fortunately, they are friendly to you. They also taught me a new spell. I shall
try using the spell on you.
Narrator: The fairies have become your
friends.
Now, you hold the advantage in the fight.
Narrator: Ever since the old woman who
lives by the cliff was surrounded by the flower monsters that fly in the sky,
she has been forced into hiding against her will.
It probably a good idea to search for her using bombs.
Old Man: I have now found a fearsome spell in the forbidden tome.
But, it may be of help in the fight.
Mmmh⬦ m-shaa!
Old Man: The fairies have returned to their springs. It seems as though
they have fled from the Evil King's power. The springs have now regained their
previous power.
The fairies who aided you will not lend you their power anymore.
Take care as you keep fighting.
Narrator: This week the goal was to
recover 2 Triforce pieces. If you already have them, it's best to collect
rupees and buy items in preparation for next week.
Old Man: There is one final greater spell written in the Lightning chapter.
I will use it right now.
Mhhhh⬦ ky-ah!
How was that?
Old Man: A fearsome vision has appeared to my eyes now.
Perhaps I can transfer it to you.
Narrator: There has been a change in
your items. Something about the number of bombs. It seems you'll be able to use
them to your heart's content.
Narrator: There are some places you
cannot reach no matter how hard you try. The time will surely come when you can
reach them. You should keep them in mind.
Old Man: Hero, it seems the power of the bombs has disappeared. The power
of the stars is also weakening. You must hurry. My power will not last long.
This world will soon disappear. You have but a little time remaining to you.
Take back the two Triforce pieces from the Evil King's hands.
Narrator: Time is running out. Is there
anything left undone? Do you have a bow? Did you get the boomerang?
Narrator: The time is up.
