2 hours away from an epic purchase

Fully updated with  pics and descriptions!

Group shot:

image



Unpopulated NES prototype pcb.  Hoppin' Mad CES prototype (same build as my previous copy.  Stickers were added by me).

image



Battletoads and Videomation prototypes

image



"Digger" prototype (early Digger T. Rock w/obvious differences).  Marble Madness NES prototype EPROMs.  Elite NTSC EPROM!!!  Unreleased, but appears unfinished.  I haven't been able to boot it in an emu yet, but read "Work in Progress" through a tile editor.  There are numerous other GB prototype EPROMs on the far right as well.

image




Four GB prototype (Jordan Vs. Bird, Super Scrabble x2, Mousetrap Hotel)

image





One on One EPROMs.  I believe this to be an early version of Jordan Vs. Bird, but I haven't assembled the game yet.

image




Overlord EPROM box, filled with Natsume EPROMs.  Don't know the game yet, but it is definitely an NES title.  Unknown EPROM to the right.


image




Prince of Persia source code on 3.5" floppy.  Dated two years before the NES release.  This is definitely NES code though, not DOS stuff.

image





Three unpopulated GB prototype pcbs.

Dinosaur Planet marketing folder.  Full with AWESOME shit!

  • Woo hoo, can't wait for you guys to hop back on with some new protos. image
  • I'm looking forward to see what you return with.......it should be soon......right?
  • Yes... You guys told me about this a few days ago!... I can't wait to see!
  • *crossing fingers for Bio Force Ape*
  • Godspeed, good sirs.
  • best of luck. sounds like it might turn out pretty great!
  • soooooooooooooooooooo..... call me guys. i want to be the first to know
  • The amount of legwork and research you guys do, you deserve payoffs like this. Can't wait!
  • Good luck guys!



    call me second I also want to know image 2 hrs their 2 hrs back... lets say an hour or 2 their.... my guess is we'll hear from them around 5:30-6:30 pm NA time
  • We're home, and we're not empty handed. We have a lot of stuff that we need to go through before posting, but there are some goodies in the mix.



    The prototype that I was most excited about turned out to be a bust of sorts. You'll see what I mean in a bit...
  • you need to post some pics, let us see...good finds Beagle...
  • Well, I'll at least tell people what I was most excited about (which turned out to be a let down of sorts).



    I managed to score another Hoppin' Mad prototype. The problem: It appears to be the exact same build that I already had. It was for the CES, and the cart case is pretty damn cool looking. Still though, I was holding out all hope that this prototype would be complete, but now I'm thinking that this was as far as it ever made it into production.



    Don't fret though, I have a TON of stuff to get through. I'll make my next update worth your while.
  • your killing me Matt you know that right LOL
  • Sounds pretty cool image looking forward to some pics.

    lol... I was thinking the same thing... I'm tempted to call their cell phones.. haha
  • Hahaha!



    I'm sorry guys, but I have to head out the door. The sale took the better part of the day and I expected to have more time to talk about it.



    Things to look forward to:

    - Source code to NES game on a 3.5" floppy

    - NES games with noticeable differences

    - Paperwork for unreleased N64 game

    - Possible unreleased NES game...

    - Plenty of other NES and GB prototypes



    I'll take all kinds of pictures later tonight.
  • cool man !

    Dummy Head!
  • *fingers crossed for Married with children*



    image Have fun~
  • Tengen Police Acadamy?
  • From the perspective of sources, I'm guessing some sort of Elite release, so maybe Dr. Franken or something.
  • It's nothing that great. If it were a famous unknown, I would go nuts.



    What I have is an EPROM of what I'm pretty sure is a unreleased game. I haven't been able to boot it up in an emulator yet, but by using tile layer pro I did see "Work in progress." I have no idea how complete it is as a result.
  • can't wait to see what you got!
