Tempest Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Fake! I've seen a few photoshops in my day... ? Actually these are 100% real. I'm quite jealous. I hope the rom can finally be released now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ave1 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) I have tried with mine. I would need to send it through the mail (which I won't do) or a plane trip to get a guy to accomplish the task. Another option is to have the computer cartridge reader sent through the mail to me for a day or two so data can be obtained. I see that to be the best option... Just need someone to be willing to send it to me. Tried to get that accomplished two years ago... and was told to wait. I'm willing, but it all depends on the person who owns the equipment.

Shawn Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 This game is not easy to dump and even harder to reproduce. I really hope this works out and the masses can finally have access to play this game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godslabrat Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 This is a really dumb thought... but is there a chance you could just dump it with a Retron77? Would that work? I mean, you could either keep it, return it, or whatever... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, you could either keep it, return it, or whatever...No. The Retron 77 doesn’t actually save ROMs from carts. It loads then in to the emulator to play and then they are gone when it is powered off. Also the special hardware or additional chip(s) that is game uses probably won’t even play on a Retron. If this thing ends up getting dumped Stella is gonna need an update to even play it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

classicgamer74 Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 Wow, I'd love to have the rom if it can be dumped. I wonder what can be done to make it work on Stella? I enjoyed the game when I got to play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supergun Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I’ll tell you one thing, in all my years of collecting, I’ve never seen this many carts of an unreleased game coincidentally found by people over & over again. But of course, it’s just a coincidence, so don’t read too much into it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Per my webpage: Quote Port of the Colecovision game of the same name. Tarzan was developed by Wickstead Design (the same team behind the unreleased 2600 Pink Panther game). The game finished, but was unreleased due to it requiring a special chip for extra memory. A prototype of the game may exist with one of the programmers. An in-game screenshot, picture of the box, and a manual all exist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 There are 20 copies for sale in the marketplace right now for $75 shipped each. I'm guessing those came back around due to the fact that the binary could very well be released to the masses if all goes well with dutchman's copies getting dumped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hizzy Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Is anyone buying the repro in Marketplace or are you waiting on the ROM dump? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
