Thanks! I was pleased with it. Not really the kind of thing I usually do, but I was really happy with how it came out:) It inspired my recent Gamecube Q video and I want to do more in this style now:)
@L1Games That's awesome! :D Well goodluck with everything:) All you're reviews bring back a lot of childhood memories XD Looking forward to seeing more videos :D
Hey Muzz, I loved this review! I'd been waiting a while to see this mysterious prototype you got to play.
I saw the famicom and Super Famicom games in the background during the interview and have been meaning to ask you if they are for sale. I recently got boxed Famicom with some games for a great price and I am looking for games. I would love to buy some when I am in the area next if they are for sale.
They seriously need to re-release this as a homebrew with some added levels of possible. Very sad that this was never got to see the light of day. The music and graphics are awesome. = )
I still don't understand why someone who holds a rare title like this wouldn't release the rom. I mean I realize the money side but this is video game history, it should belong to everyone. I have a hard time having any respect for anyone who holds out of us gamers like that.
Yes, but also consider that distribution of the rom can hurt the overall value of the prototype. Steve has expressed an interest in sharing the cart with others but if he does it and in what quantity im not sure. time will tell:)
so the other day i was shopping, and i ran into a copy of metroid prime trilogy for wii, collecters edition (metal case, everything came with it, the manual, a story line panflet, and the slide off case) I payed 35$ for it used, (though the disk was in perfect condition, the only thing wrong was there was no orriginal sealing)
Did i come across a good deal? or could i have gotten a better deal?
@L1Games I KNEW! that gametrader was under pricing it! Thanks muzz, I appreciate it, and put up a video of it, and something about gamestop that i think you'd be interested in, do you want me to inbox it to you? or post it on your L1 games wall?
Hey Muzz this question might come across random as it relates to the video but Im curious as to how i can break into the video game industry? like what college courses/classes could i take so that i may get hired by a video game company & work in a field that i enjoy? with everyone losing their jobs in the recession & all, i see the video game industry in pretty good stability. hell, some companies are offering job listing on their site but i have no idea what to study. im in a community college
depends on what part of the industry you want to get into. I'd say go with programming as the retail side of video games could potentially die out in another decade or so. If you want to go retail though, I'd say study business.
thats an awesome find, and great review bud! i usually only buy games from fleamarkets, garage sales and thrift stores. but thats just cause im from a small town. if i had an L1 games in my town i would definitely shop there too lol
Nice video Muzz. Very informative and well spoken, you should consider doing more review type video likes this of any other rare vintage games you happen to come across.
I'm surprised there aren't a plethora of comments about the 7/10 rating you gave here. It sounds really fair to me but we're living in a time where a 9 or lower equates to a game being a failure. As for the game itself though, it looks really good and it's too bad it was being developed during The Crash of 83. Like you said, it could have changed the game (no pun intended)
a complete version of this game probably would have gotten a higher rating. But yeah, I tried to be fair:) I'd say on average, games for the atari 2600 score in the 5 area. LOL
@Cyantist2 They technically can, as evidenced by multiple surviving prototypes, but within the next 10 years there will be a lot less working prototypes as bit rot can happen at any time in an older eprom like that, regardless of conditions. I've got about 100 eproms here from arcade boards and have run into this problem before.
I really hope he has a rom rip somewhere safe, eproms have a 25 year or so lifetime before the data starts to corrupt, a lot of prototypes are soon going to be dead and some have already died.
@L1Games 2 people and growing I'm sure. I mean it's video game history for god sakes, and these dislikers are ether jealoius or all they know is fucking Call of Duty.
