I got out my Genesis and my Everdrive MD last night and was playing Maui Mallard. I had never played it before and was surprised how good a game it was. Anyone else enjoy this title.

I think I've only played the SNES version, which is a little different, but it was pretty good.  I don't know that Disney ever farmed out a bad game on the Genesis; they're all pretty good.  They really knew how to get a game made back then.

I never heard of it, until now.

Does anyone have the US rom for this game? According to wipipedia

http://en.wikipedia....in_Maui_Mallard

Donald Duck in Maui Mallard is Europeon Version and Maui Mallard as Cold Shadow is USA

I cannot find the rom for the US version anywhere and even an Ebay search shows none for sale. I ask because I really prefer to play US games.
I know there must be collectors that have both the US version and a cartridge dumper. Would anyone be so kind as to post this binary?

Thanks in Advance.

That same Wikipedia page shows that there was no USA release of the Megadrive game.  The USA title you're seeing is the SNES version.

There were a couple of Beauty & The Beast games, too....   I forget these (incl. Fantasia) because I, erm, never played 'em.

I hear those are actually all right, but I haven't played them either.

I was working at a small game store about that time and they (the owners) bought everything for the store.  They even had a huge selection of Jag, Sega Cd, and 3DO.  Well the version of this game they got I could have sworn had Donald Duck is Maui Mallard on the box.  I remember the snes being different.  I had to keep telling this one lady it was rented out who would call for like two weeks straight.  Good times.  If I had known how rare many of those games were I would have bought them before the shop closed.
My favorite weekly fun was when our Jag loyalists would come back to complain their latest game was terrible while I sat behind the counter, my good game paused while I played therapist to the rich guy who can't be bothered to read a review or play the game first on our demo station.

hmmm.. maybe it was the import.  Can't find it anywhere.
