cost me a vectrex system ( which i didnt get into really) not a really big selection forsale its more about hunting and asking around.

[Mr. Postman]

Cool beans. I've hunted for protos for years with very few results. I guess that's the joy of the hunt, when you actually come across that proto.

035-02 is 2/4/83.

the difference that i see from the final version

 

date on start up still 1982

when the aliens fly off the screen ( and come back on) the screen shows 2 aliens for a second or 2.

also not every time but after a round it sometimes kills u . and u loose a life.

 

im doing this on a black and white tv so color might be different.

the sound is about the same i dont notice any differences.

 

also the text looks normal and the point system seems normal.

[super_dos_man]

pics?

[atari70s]

Ask and then u shall recieve

 

 

The close up of the text label

 

 

The chips of magic.

 

 

See dated 1982

 

 

Unlike the 1983 version, The lines that flash next to it doesnt do so right now.

sweet find!

 

( I have never had ANY luck finding protos)

what u think tempy.

[Tempest]

what u think tempy.

 

Umm... It's a WIP version of Galaxian. I told you this already. What else do you want me to say?

 

And it's Tempest or Matt, not 'Tempy'

Temper, temper, Tempest...

[jnice]

And why couldn't the 8-bit Galaxian have had the nice text graphic like the 2600 version?

Nothing personal to you Tempest, that was funny how he worded it.

Programmers preference I guess. There's no reason other than the programmer chose not to put it in.

 

Looks like a legit proto to me. Congrats.
