Bermuda Triangle Prototype? Atari

[chaaza]

So I found this at a pawn shop years ago, just wondering if this is a prototype game? I tried and have not been able to find anything on the internet... help!

Bermuda Triangle is one of many, many hacks of Activision's River Raid.

Bermuda Triangle is its own game, different from the Bermuda hacks.

 

I think the cart is more of a pre-release/demo than an actual prototype, but I could be wrong. Still a cool thing to have.

[Thomas Jentzsch]

You are right.

 

Before dumping we will not know what it really is.

It's a Proto/loaner cart, probably a finished version. I have the same cart(s) # 418 and #288

In my experience(no facts, just seeing numbers) there were 50o made and gave out for potential customers to try. They came with a type set stapled instructions asking for the cart to be returned by a certain date.

Thank you very much everybody!

I owned one myself, along with finding it with a secret agent cart(unreleased) and Frankenstein's monster. My best find ever. Nice find. I would definitely load the game to make sure that it has Bermuda on the cart.
