Awesome.

 

I'm guessing that the list of remaining scans / mysteries is getting pretty small?

Yes indeed.

 

Apart from unearthed prototypes like Arkyology, what keeps me interested are the remaining Home Vision titles, like Magic Carpet, Jacky Jump, etc.

 

And ofcourse all VCS related press kits, promo stuff and pre-release material.

 

BTW: there are two CCW promo boxes coming up this week.

It looks like these are the new additions:

 

3-D Zapper (12-15-82) (U.S. Games Corporation, Todd Marshall) (prototype) ~
3-D Zapper (U.S. Games Corporation, Todd Marshall) (prototype)
Cosmic Ark (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Cross Force (Unknown) (PAL) [a]
Demon Attack (Canal 3 - Intellivision) (C 3016)
Eggomania (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Enduro (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Fishing Derby (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Freeway (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Ice Hockey (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Keystone Kapers (Canal 3 - Intellivision) (C 3014)
Racer (1982) (Atari, Joe Gaucher) (Prototype) ~
River Raid (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Tac-Scan (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Tennis (Canal 3 - Intellivision)
Thunderground (Canal 3 - Intellivision)

No doubt there are also some ROMs that replace bad dumps with the same name. Cool! And wow, Xevious was really quite far along...good stuff.
BTW I couldn't get Racer to do anything but make a low rumble -- is there more to it?

Racer needs to be played on F8 bankswitch.

That's true, but it's not the problem. There is no reset vector address in bank 1. If the game starts in bank 1 it will crash. Is this how the cart run was released or is this the actual proto version? Usually these prototypes get fixed before released i.e. Turbo. It would be easy to fix.

Omegamatrix, what would I do in a hex editor to fix the problem? (as well as telling Stella to use the right bankswitching scheme)

Here's a quick patch:

 

Racer (Prototype) bankfix.bin

This looks like an early prototype that is just playable. There is a lot that needs fixing (like scanline count and midscreen tearing), but I've got many other things I'm working on so it'll have to be someone else.

Thanks, that did the trick! I noticed the midscreen tearing too, but the game is at least playable. It gets going at a pretty good clip after a bit, at least on Game #3.
