This is a sample more so then a proto? Hard to tell but are they EPROMs or standard chips inside? Most of these types of carts are standard EPROMs with no window.

Huh, I always assumed there were windows underneath the stickers, but I will check today to confirm. I’ve had sample carts like this have windows, so it was my assumption.

I just checked again. Unfortunately I cannot confrm because the sticker is very well stuck and I'm not going to take a hair dryer to it, but I believe there are windows. I think this is a gaming mag review copy/sample. Pretty much all of those that I have seen utilize the windowed EPROMs. Not sure why they’d put a sticker on otherwise.

I do believe this is close to final, however. I will run a hex compare later, then turn this into an auction.

I also lost a screw in the process. Anyone got a magnifying glass?

Found it!

You can usually run your finger off the sticker and tell if there's a window under it.

That’s what I did. I THINK there is, and I think I also saw its outline in the light, but this particular sticker makes it tougher than the others for whatever reason. Different texture. Still, whenever I’ve seen something like a sample cart for use only in a kiosk or something like that I have never seen stickers on the EPROM. I’m not sure why they’d put them on without there being a window.

Same reason you would put a sticker on anything. Identification.

Those are Hitachi EPROMs. So, yes, standard UV erasable EPROMs.

Yessir! Not giving that one up, I’m a Genesis guy by heart and I think there were more hex differences in the Genesis than SNES, but I am checking tonight.
