The Legend of Zelda: The Legend of Zelda - Blue-er Ring

The Legend of Zelda: Blue-er Ring is a fan-created modification of the classic action-adventure game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. This patch alters Link's character design to provide a more appealing color scheme. Additionally, it includes modifications and compatibility adjustments for various ROM versions. Released on January 30, 2018, this version maintains the readability of in-game visuals while enhancing aesthetics.

Link's ugly blue outfit has been changed to a more aesthetically pleasing color. Now, when he wears this ring, he can almost hear Zelda as she breathes wildly!

Patches are included for Famicom and three different FDS images. The NES patch should work for every other version of the ROM (U, E, GC).

Link's ugly blue outfit has been changed to a more aesthetically
pleasing color. Now, when he wears this ring, he can almost hear Zelda
as she breathes wildly!

I didn't test the entire game yet, but the new color seems to be just as
readable as the original, in every dungeon I checked.

I'm going to assume you know how to use IPS patches. I'm also going to
assume you know how to obtain a ROM to patch. Please don't ask me.

Patches are included for Famicom and three different FDS images.
The NES patch should work for every other version of the ROM (U, E, GC).

As with my other patches, feel free to use this as a base for your own
projects, as long as I am credited in the readme.

Technical info:
The two sets of colors changed can be found at 6BA6 and A296 (NES U).
