'''BS The Legend of Zelda (BSゼルダの伝説)''' was an enhanced remake of the first game in [[The Legend of Zelda series|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]. It was released with two different maps.  
'''''Super Mario All-Stars''''', known in Japan as '''''Super Mario Collection (スーパーマリオコレクション)''''', is a [[video game]] compilation.  


It was released digitally in weekly episodes, over the [[Satellaview]] on the [[St.Giga]] Broadcast Satellite network. The first map was released in four episodes in August 1995. The second map was released in four episodes between December [[1995]] and January [[1996]].  
It contains enhanced ports of ''[[Super Mario series|Super Mario]]'' games, including ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', and [[Super Mario Bros. 3]].  


The maps are half the size of the maps in ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]''.
It contained the first release of ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' outside of Japan, where it was given the name ''[[Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels|The Lost Levels]]''. This was done to differentiate it from ''Super Mario USA'', which was released as ''Super Mario Bros. 2'' outside of Japan.


The player character was either the male or female Satellaview avatar, based on the information given during account creation. Both the male and female avatars wear a green tunic. The male character wears a backward baseball cap whereas the female character has long red hair without a hat.
==Versions==
''Super Mario All-Stars'' was released for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] in 1993.


==Story==
It was released for the [[Super Famicom Box]] pay-to-play system in Japan on July 14, 1993.
[[File:BS Zelda.jpg|220px|left]]
The land of Hyrule has three golden Triforce pyramids, the Triforce of Power, the Triforce of Courage, and the Triforce of Wisdom, each of which contains mystical powers.  


One day an evil army led by Ganon, the prince of darkness, invaded Hyrule and stole the Triforce of Power. Princess Zelda, due to fear of what Ganon would do with the entire Triforce, split up the Triforce of Wisdom into eight fragments and hid them around Hyrule.
It was then released in a compilation with ''[[Super Mario World]]'' as '''''Super Mario All-Stars + Super Mario World''''' in 1994.  


Angered by her action, Ganon imprisoned Zelda and sent troops out to search for the pieces to complete the Triforce.  
From 1997 to 1998, a modified version of ''Super Mario Collection'' titled '''''[[BS Super Mario Collection]]''''' was released for the [[Satellaview]] broadcast satellite add-on for the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|Super Famicom]]. Five worlds from ''Super Mario Bros.'', five worlds from ''Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels'', and six worlds from ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' were included.


Thankfully, a hero has set out to defeat Ganon and to save Princess Zelda. To do this, the hero has to find all of the pieces of the Triforce so that Ganon can be defeated and Hyrule can return to a state of peace and harmony once again.
The original SNES version of ''Super Mario All-Stars'' was later released, through [[emulation]], on [[Wii]] as '''''Super Mario All-Stars Limited Edition''''' in 2010.  


==Release==
==Legacy==
''BS The Legend of Zelda'' was only released digitally, in two maps, over the course of four weeks each.  
In 2020, a [[Nintendo Switch]] compilation titled ''[[Super Mario 3D All-Stars]]'', known in Japan as ''Super Mario 3D Collection (スーパーマリオ3Dコレクション)'', was released. It contained high-definition versions of ''[[Super Mario 64]]'', ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', and ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.


In addition to being only released digitally, the voice acting and music that accompanied the game were broadcast over satellite, so the game in its original form is no longer available.
