Well now, that's interesting, I wasn't expecting anything more than simple localization changes. Does anyone know what this background looks like on the Famicom version?Originally Posted by miaandjohnrule

It looks the same as the US version. The background in that picture actually looks like the one used for the titan's tunnel. I dunno why it would be in the temple in the proto. A bug?
Correct. The Titan's Tunnel background is the same
These are called Wizards in the release
These are called Red Gargoyles in the release
These are Frost Giant and Wolf in the release
The tombstone in elfland
same tombstone in released version
These are Sorcerers in the release
A nice little typo hahahah
I've got a ton more differences mostly monster names. Lotsa pics , not sure if I have the time or energy to post them all. enjoy
Where is the typo?
Best 2007 find to be?
Big congrats! It always amazes me how these things turn up after all those years!
It was actually found months agoHe just updated with new pics.
It's Astos no Aatos
Ah ok, i have hardly played FF so i couldnt know
I realized that..It was actually found months ago
I am not going to brake anybodys bubble but thee might be the names of the enemies best translated from Japanese to English by a Japanese person from sqaure.
Another thing to look for is mishaped objects. For example Religious figures in the Mother NES game.
that's exactly what they are.
I have looked. There's other differences but they mostly seem to be text differences and typos. There seems to be a slight difference in leveling , I do not have as many hps as the release.
Bringing this one back from the dead. I've beated the game a couple of times and really only found typos and text differences. It's different that you actually fight Garland with the Titan's Tunnel background. Here's a few typos from the ending.
Nice find.
Those are also nice pictures. whenever I try to take a picture of my television set I would get all sorts of glare and reflections.
thanks. The pics aren't so hard. I just turn the lights off and turn the flash off.
Wow, that's really cool. Have you getting any thought to lending it to somebody who dumps rare ROMs (who would then send it back to you after it's dumped), so it can be distributed on the internet for others to enjoy? I know others have done this with prototypes before.
I have thought about it and decided against doing anything like that.
This is the first I've come across this thread. I just have to say that's an amazing find there! Can't help but wonder who snuck it out of Nintendo and how it ended up at a garage sale. You should try to track its roots back a little if you can, would be an interesting follow-up.
How far is Everett, WA from Redmond (Nintendo's US home)?
not far at all from Redmond. I used to work there. I know where it came from but I'm not really at liberty to discuss it.
going to bump this ancient thread but, I just got my hands on, randomly from ebay, a similar copy of the game, not sure if it is the same one posted here.
seeing all the same differencs and what not.
Trying to play through it as well to see if I can catch other differences.
