Awesome! I love the labels on it.

This is 100% identical to retail PRG-0 version, FYI, but it's great that that's verified.

Ducktales 2 intro music runs slower compared to the US release, or is this due to it being a Euro prototype?

Yep, it's timed for PAL.

Also that byte difference is just in the iNES ROM header, not the game, it looks like. So I'm guessing this is something that was dumped previously (I wouldn't be shocked to learn we/I dumped it, but I really don't remember) that ended up in Josh's hands.

Right, and your dump is apparently identical to a previously-dumped DuckTales 2 prototype, the origins of which I don't remember, which leads me to believe that it's the same cartridge.

so is it a PAL prototype then?

Mark and Matt have been gracious enough to dump these, which I truly appreciate. Even if they have been dumped prior, we'll check em and know that these carts have been dumped and that the ROMs out there can be attributed to these carts... that way we don't miss them.

what do you guys want to check out next? Spot?

Yeah, this is really great, because a lot of people (me included) were REALLY BAD at documenting the cartridge along with the ROM, which was a terrible mistake.

Would be neat to see the Spot on 32X, if that's still in your collection and is something you'd consider
