How many times has this same circle been done?
Step 1- awesome prototype is found.
Step 2- disgruntled fan says owner should dump it and " it wouldn't affect the value"
And so on and so forth.

If you want it, buy it!

I also don't think making the dump available will make the proto cheaper in my opinion as well. Else EarthBound carts would be pretty cheap because the ROM was available.
This couldn't be further from the truth.  This game would be lucky to break the four figure mark once the rom is public.  There are countless historical examples to support the idea that prototype value plummets after a dump.

As for wanting the game dumped, you could just buy it and release it yourself (like so many of us have done in the past).  If you truly believe that the prototype would not be devalued you could simply buy the game, dump it, and sell it for what you paid.  You're no worse for the wear and the game is released.  Sounds good to me...

We're dealing with a Nintendo R&D1 game that wasn't released, and has more than SimTunes actually has, that PC "port" only has Pix Quartet. Sound Factory (in this case) has Pix Quartet, Beat Hopper and Star Fly, and MAYBE the 4th mode is actually in there but hidden because it wasn't ready for show. Maybe. TCRF people can do that work, perhaps maybe I can.

And who knows what Nintendo can do with possible easter eggs and the little things that would make you think it's Nintendo, that I'm sure wouldn't be on SimTunes in any way...
It's a Nintendo game, not a Maxis game here. And because of that I'm pretty mad that the dump isn't available yet.

EDIT:
I also want to say that I won't try to force the guy to make the dump available, that's his choice. But as far as I love the SNES, I'm all about game preservation, and I'm all about making dumps of every protos and make them all available.

I also saw it's on eBay. I REALLY wish someone would dump it. It's way too important to lose it.
It's a piece of history. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=35&threadid=137107 2014-11-05T17:20:04 -05.00 steven78 31
