This is a small “convenience”/addendum release of the
Super Awakening hack.

It is based on [b]Super Awakening v1.2 plus the 23 commits made since that version[/b], but with the [b]Auto-Restock[/b] feature removed.

ALL credit for the hack, code, and design goes to the original author:
Hartman (GitHub).

This release is provided for users who do not know how to build their own copy without the Auto-Restock feature.
Screenshots were taken using the BGB emulator (Emulated System set to “SGB + GBC”).

What this hack does:

  • Expanded SNES controller support via Super Game Boy (X/Y/L/R support)
  • Sword & Shield mapped to A/B
  • Two item buttons mapped to X/Y
  • Cycle items with L/R (includes previous-item shortcuts)
  • Customizable 10-slot item inventory menu
  • Quick Dash
  • Quick Lift

Intentionally Not Included:

  • Quick Restock (spend rupees to automatically restock empty consumables)

Compatibility Notes

The romhack is fully supported on an original Super Nintendo using a Super Game Boy.
Game Boy Color is supported in compatible emulators.
Some emulators require additional configuration to properly map X/Y/L/R to Controller 2.

  • ✅ Super Nintendo
  • ✅ Analogue Pocket — Use https://github.com/spiritualized1997/openFPGA-Super-GB
  • ✅ Web Browser — https://cphartman.github.io/projects/super-links-awakening/
  • ✅ Mesen — Set “Game Boy model” to “Super Game Boy”. Configure buttons under “SNES Port 1 Controller”
  • ✅ bsnes — Load the SGB .sfc first, then load the patched ROM
  • 🌈 BGB — Set “Emulated System” to “SGB + GBC”. Map X/Y/L/R to A/B/Left/Right on joypad1
  • ❌ mGBA / RetroArch — No Controller 2 input support
