Download link: https://archive.org/details/battlebots-gc-prototype Back on Christmas 2021 I tempted fate and hosted an hours-long livestream of this unreleased game on my Twitch channel. I'd had a copy of it for a couple of years up to that point but was unsure what to do with it over legal concerns I had regarding releasing it. Naturally this attracted a lot of attention in my direction and when nobody sent their legal team after me for doing a no-no I figured I was in the clear. I reached out to the founders of the BattleBots company (again) and said I'd procured a copy of the game prototype. I asked if I could just go ahead and post it online for people to play. I was informed that as long as no money was exchanging hands in the process they were finally okay with this prototype being out there. Prior to releasing this prototype the game had only been spotted in a select few places: a demo was playable at the taping of Comedy Central's final season of the show in 2003, and competitor Donald Hutson brought with him his copy of the prototype and a Gamecube dev kit to the taping of the 2015 season of the show and let people play it there. When the prototype was posted to Internet Archive I also posted an entry to my BattleBots blog about my thoughts and history with the game and the process of obtaining and ultimately posting it. This is old news but I'm sharing it here for posterity since this is the appropriate forum for it and AtariAge is one of the few places online where people hunt for protos with sincere intentions. -
Today I am releasing a prototype of Frog Bog for Intellivision. This was dumped from an EPROM cartridge yesterday. I was told that I should also release it here, so I will. Provided in the zip file is the BIN and CFG files needed for emulation and/or flash carts. The file is also available on archive.org with the provided link https://archive.org/details/frog-bog-proto please enjoy! FrogBogProto.zip

Could not find a fitting label for my Hard Head repro. To whom it may concern and could make use of it.

Hello A while ago I picked up a used French Canadian 'schtroumpf' label variation Smurf which I used to have as a kid (I'm from Montreal). Came home tried it and found it was kind of odd, looking further its a (as far as I know - I looked at every set out there) un-dumped variant of it. Made a small YT 'Short' video of the discovery. Link is in the description (stored on Archive.org). Also found a Space Panic variant. If you look at old youtube commercials and some other printed material of Smurf you will notice that it has the same tree lines. Thought you might be interested. Before you go on eBay trying to buy a Smurf with a French label just know that it has nothing to do with it. It was pure luck. Bought two more just in case and they were also the common 16KiB Rom. Cheers

Hi everyone. Browsing my local Craigslist I noticed a less than generous individual is selling what appears to be a prototype of Sabotuer, the originally unreleased 2600 game. I don't know the history of this game but is this of some significance to the community? Had this been found and dumped already? Here is their listing. If this isn't allowed on the forums my sincerest apologies. This is not my game and I am not the seller advertising it. On a side note, $5k is an insane asking price, yeah? https://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/clt/d/hayward-ultra-rare-atari-prototype-game/7482181201.html

Just when you thought it was merely a rumor, the evidence proving it true finally shows itself: Gaming Alexandria's article: https://www.gamingalexandria.com/wp/2022/06/fairyland-nes/ Looks like Retro Core may have to do an update video on Battle of the Ports.- 4 replies

Now this is quite fascinating: https://duke4.net/duke-nukem-forever-2001-content-4chan-leak/ Judging from the footage and screenshots, this actually looks like fun and it's pitiful that George Broussard decided not to finish this. Hat tip goes to Spawn Wave for mentioning this. It's at the 8:04 mark.

Hello friends, I just picked up these carts from an Estate of a Principal Engineer that worked for Mattel in 82-84. I was wondering if you can help me identify these cartridges. All these were in a Intellivision II lot with a console that had an incredible low serial number of 00661. Thank you in advance

SELLING ENTIRE COLLECTION FROM 1980's. I worked as a sales rep for Activision in the early 1980's and have a LOT of prototypes (14 total - 8 for 2600, 2 for 5200, 4 for Intellivision), used games in boxes (40+ and mostly Actiivision titles), a 2600 and a 400 game console and even typed original drafts of instructions for 5 games. I want to sell it ALL IN ONE LOT. According to these blogs the protos should be worth about $80 each, no idea of the value of the instruction manuals, and we all know the value of the other games and consoles (not much...). I also have two unopened, sealed ROBOT TANK by Activision for the 2600. Check out the pics. I live in San Diego and YOU will pay shipping. First $600 (plus shipping) can have it ALL, right now! Or make your best offer. and highest bidder just may get this Collection. I had trouble uploading the pics from Google so here's a link top the pics - just copy and paste... (Sorry, I am a salesman, not a tech!!!) LOL https://photos.app.goo.gl/WN5DyyNTrGApAnec7- 6 replies

Hello fellow Atarians, picked up this item on ebay back in 2011. I used to run a search for "atari prototype" and if anything looked interesting throw in a bid. Won this item sold by a seller in Maryland with a description of "Mock-Up for Happy Drive CPU", stored it away and found it in the closet the other day. Thought you might enjoy checking it out. Cheers!

MAME 0.229 It’s been an eventful month, culminating in the release of MAME 0.229 today. One change that you’ll notice straight away is that the “64” suffix is no longer added to the file name for 64-bit versions of MAME. If you’re unsure, you can see the data model at the end of the window title. One very elusive Argentinian title has finally made it into MAME this month. We’ve very proud to present Ms PacMan Twin, an extensive hack of Ms. Pac-Man with simultaneous two-player cooperative gameplay. Another rarity you can now experience is Midway’s unreleased Power Up Baseball – the NBA Jam of baseball. On the topic of prototypes, Wayne Gretzky’s 3D Hockey Fatality Edition is now supported. Several TV games for preschool age children from JAKKS Pacific’s Sharp Cookie line have been dumped and emulated, featuring popular characters like Dora the Explorer, Scooby-Doo, Spider-Man and Thomas the Tank Engine. Travelling back a little, Mattel’s representations of Basketball, Hockey, Soccer, and Tag as electronic toys are now supported. Elektronika Autoslalom has arrived from Russia (with love). Another batch of JPM IMPACT fruit machines have been promoted to working this month, making use of new artwork engine features for their internal layouts. Updates to the Win32 and Qt debuggers add a context menu to debugger views with an option to copy visible text to the clipboard, improve behaviour when views are scrolled to the bottom, and fix a crash when right-clicking some memory views. We’re lucky enough to have received another shader update from cgwg, improving the appearance of the popular crt-geom and crt-geom-deluxe effects. We’ve added support for the NEC/Renesas V850 family to unidasm. That’s all we’ve got time for here, but there are lots of software list updates, newly dumped bootlegs, bug fixes, and other enhancements that you can read about in the whatsnew.txt file. As always, you can get the source and 64-bit Windows binary packages from the download page. Read the rest of this entry »

Is there such a thing as a Prototype Label? I got this in a trade 18 years ago from the owner of Mean Hamster Software. At the time he said this was 1 of 2 with this label. But that's all I know, Can anyone fill in more history about this cartridge, label or game? Thank you Steve

diy What I'll need for a Prototype Cart Build?
Prince Manic posted a topic in Atari 2600 Programming
I love to test my games on REAL hardware when needed I did made two socketed NES Prototype carts and I'm thinking of building my own prototype version of the Atari 2600 with Sockets as well I've checked OSHPark and I see Activision styled ones and I'm wondering if that can work for my homebrew games or not I'll list the boards I saw on the site Atari 2600 2K/4K Cartridge PCB - https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/ke2psYkp Activision Atari 2600 2K/4K Cartridge - https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/fqTcNFkn Atari 2600 8K/16K/32K Bankswitch Cartridge - https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/Z612kCkR Activision Atari 2600 8K/16K/32K Bankswitch Cartridge - https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/gmpugm1I Atari 2600 64K Bankswitch Cartridge PCB - https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/wjP27Tpt Actvision's looks simple to use if I used it as my prototype carts so I don't know - I may not do 64KB so I'll debate on what my game needs -
Hi, I am looking to buy a potential prototype build of Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly, or any pre release materials anyone might have. Does anyone know any info on where I could find a build of this game, or someone who has PS2 prototypes in general? Thank you!!!
-
Well, this was a surprise. Found this bugger in a lot of 10 games for 20 bucks. You can still see where the proto label was before it fell off. Amusingly, the previous owner, "TIM", had a piece of scotch tape with his name written on the front (as many other games in the lot did) but it was easy enough to remove without damaging that shiny red label. 999% likely a review copy/final rom but still crazy to bump into. Figured I'd post here as well in case there's anything I'm missing about this that I should check for differences, and just to show that it exists!

In some stuff we got from David Chandler's estate, there was a videotape from December, 1981, that appears to be test video of the Super-STIC, which Keith had indicated entered development in 1982. I guess that story isn't completely right.
