Umm... 'k.

Some guy named drx on the S2Beta board found a prototype cartrage of Sonic the Hedgehog 2. But this isn't the same one we already have on a ROM. This one's later than the one we have, suggessting this is a RC1, unlike the demo we have. So far, the guy's paied for it, and he's going to be receiving it soon. More info once he gets the cartrage and dumps it.

I see that this topic has been renamed. You are dead to me.

Dang, I found a video of a beta Mario Kart yesterday, but I can't find it now!

SKAARG

The Sonic the Hedgehog 2 prototype. The one used in the very, very old Nick Arcade special. Note: This is a link to the topic that has the rom, not a direct link to the rom. Not considered warez.

I'm up for the drx-ism religion.

Not drawing attention to yourself is often a good idea.

Hmmmmm, I saw that beta screenshot of the title screen on a sonic gamecube game manual. I think it was that port sonic mega collection but I'm not shure....

DRX is also the guy who made that Ristar level editor.

I'm not sure if this will greatly contribute to anything, but I found an interesting (to say the least) video on YouTube. Link here.

I remember that being posted here already.

Dr. Mario prototype stuff.

Part 1
Part 2

MEGAß¥TE · « **Reply #115 on:** January 06, 2007, 03:33:36 PM »

Sorry, that's not beta stuff. Those sprites are found in the cutscenes when you beat levels that are multiples of 5. The guy is totally mistaken.

I found this link at the Video Game Museum website. It's in the most recent updates for their website, talking about a SMW that looks more like an SMB3.

Hey, they just snagged those pics from Chris Covell (which he in turn had scanned from a a Japanese magazine from 1989)

Why do prototypes always look better than finished games?

The Chef · « **Reply #119 on:** January 10, 2007, 07:47:55 PM »

I guess it's just human nature. If that prototype were the final and vice-versa, we'd probably say the same thing.
