I've seen all three of these floating around on the web in images for quite some time now. And even some youtube videos from ebay sellers over the years. Having read the article, I'm kind of let down that these are not the "droids we are looking for" as a Jedi would say.

I know why these protos were sought after, we are looking for the tentative/in progress version of Ninja Gaiden I.

The NGII proto article was kind of a funny read. But I'm not surprised that NG3's proto had VERY LITTLE to offer as it is a fine representation of how that game was handled in development for the US (carelessly).

I think your next goal, ought to be finding the japanese NG proto types as they may be different than our NTSC counterparts.


That's actually what I'm shooting for, its quite the task I must say. I've spoken with people who worked for Tecmo at that time and I've found nothing. ]]> The Legendary Demon Statues have been preserved at last! http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=35&threadid=132875 2014-09-22T08:29:21 -05.00 Armageddon Potato 7

A big thanks to Mike from NintendoPlayer.com, and Hybrid from NA. Mike really helped me dig deeper into the games an uncovered even more. Hybrid helped with game genie codage! Also a shout out to Mattinparadise, DreamTR, and that guy from Sunrise Dimple records whose name I'll never remember! If they hadn't sold me these, I would have never gotten this far!
 
It's been a great year for prototype releases, and I hope this makes it an even better one!
