This is a sub-page of Notes:The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.
The offset of the routine is 01:460F in all language versions except Japanese, where it is 01:4623. The precomposed savegame follows. Offsets and values in brackets [] are only set implicitly: When the game detects no valid savegame, it will zero the RAM. However, if there is a valid savegame before this, these values will be retained from the previous save.
Copied from 01:45CC (01:45E0 Japanese) to A405–A447:
