Title Skip Patch

Hack of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

In the Japanese and European versions of A Link to the Past, the player can skip the animation of the spinning triforce and sword at the title screen by pressing buttons any time after the "Nintendo Presents" screen. For whatever reason, this feature has been removed in the American version, which means that you must watch the animation in full before you can go to the file select screen.

This patch simply modifies one byte in the ROM to restore said functionality to the game.
