I've been collecting prototypes for many years (mainly NES) and I really enjoy documenting them. I would like to eventually have a list of every NES game prototype documented(or as many that even exist.) I need to post up my findings sometime when I have time to finish documenting them!

If anybody has a NES prototype they want dumped/documented, just let me know!

As a side note I have a Star Ocean 2nd Evolution PSP prototype that I'd love to dump, but I'm not sure how to do so.

I have the talespin Nes prototype dumped already. I can work with ya on documenting it.

You know I saw something about that earlier referenced elsewhere.  They got caught and shamed hard on that one given the solid info about where the shell came from and the rest.  It's pretty obvious even to people who don't shop for protos that's a total fake given it has a retail board in that 'window' on the shell as it is.

You’d be surprised how little some research. 

Wata I’m ready to contract out my services to work on prototype authentication and better labeling of what makes them cool also I’m planning to end the matrix hahah

I doubt it has value, but do people seek out unpopulated development board stuff?  I have this old Gameboy cart without a chip dropped in to test with it, but it does have a pretty shiny RARE gold sticker on it so at least you know who used it and probably could guess at for what too.

I’m sure someone would want that because it’s Gameboy. 

Miss the old prototype section but low traffic plus most people aren’t interested in listing what they got means not many people are talking. People are buying on eBay tho! 

To far north or I’d love to help out! 

Wow impressive. I got this game recently I doubt I’d remove the toys r us for nostalgic reasons but glad still it worked out for you 

Ouch hopefully they do something to right the problem! Also I could see them taking forever they have the worse time keeping on track with their releases. 
 

they actually have apology cards that aren’t sent with the game. Makes zero sense.

Only one item catching my eye! 

Mine just closed down but they have had rumors for the last year at least of closure. The store was usually empty.

I'm surprised he likes it despite the fact you've clearly impaled him with it.

Pain leads to strength! 

Legacy Luke Skywalker lightsaber. 
 

bonus my 9 month old loves it 

My wishlist Item is the Pokémon gold prototype I forget what convention it was for but, the one with different sprites and names and unused Pokémon. 
 

like someone else said I could trade for that and be happy

This is probably the coolest thing I've seen on this site. I never knew Nintendo had an output solution for the original Game Boy.

You should see the big one

Anyone have some more info on their Metal Storm release? It still says December release, but the month is getting on...

Dude these companies are rarely on time. Expect like two months after their expected and you won’t be annoyed.

The eternal question

Well, she knows her shit. I saw her in a panel a year or so ago and she goes deep into some really obscure stuff. She's also been helping out Frank, I think since he started the foundation. I know back in May during the Game Informer Archive backup, she was there the entire time. I mean, I went up and put in a week of work. She was there for all five weeks with Frank. For free, volunteering. We all were.

Is there even any games for this thing? Like, even theoretically, only game i can come up with is the 7th Guest demo,  and Secret of Mana, but who knows if it ever actually made it to prototyping.

 

No cds were made to be played with it. It can only do nstj carts it looks from pictures

Your ideology isn't conservative.

LOL, well to be fair, the bible advocates slavery, genocide, so I guess that's fine. Just don't go coveting your neighbor's wife, because the celestial dictator will convict you of thought crimes.

To late she’s wearing short shorts and she’s got a fat booty!!!

Because most people in the Post Office are not collectors of Retro Gaming goodness and probably can give 2 shits about retro gaming treasures .They probably think that “old stuff “is garbage ,and worthless ..lol 

I still feel like most people don’t care about older gaming and or collecting it. 

How can someone be that dense to think that’s okay?

The Darius thing was cool, those had only been released in Asia IIRC, only way to get them was from Play Asia, and those collections had less content than what is coming in the SLG version. I went in big time on this release, shmups always end up being in demand anyway and I love this series. My only gripe is it doesn't include G-Darius but oh well. 

Bleep store had more then the slg release. I got the play Asia one it was a must buy. Slg is just overkill personally but I think it might have two additional games or is that the same ones from the play Asia limited edition? 

I love how they did this like bleep store in Japan did with two shmups. 
 

slg for some reason re did the Darius release for switch again. Makes no sense but I bought it regardless 

Last time I seen one it was owned by and Australian. His was a vga 80+ Q

Get a crt. Or you can go all out and get a pvm/bvm. They make they the n64 look amazing just finished ocarina not to long ago on it. Going thru Mario 64 now.
