View Full Version : TG16 Proto "cartridge"...

Greets,

Anybody have a ballpark idea of what proto boards for the TG16 might be worth? I've got a few floppies worth of EPROMS I dumped as well, and have verified the board still works...

In digging around on the net, I've yet to see any mention of these buggers. Went digging around in my attic today, and found my TG16 stuff, along with a bunch of proto NES games (about 18 or so), so figured I'd ask..

I've also got a proto SNES board, a couple of SMS ones, a Genesis one, and a Gameboy one - all take EPROMS. I'd swear I had two for the TG16, but have only found one in some quick digging.

In the same vein - did "Camp California" ever exist in HuCard format? The only references I'm finding are for CD format, but I've got ROM files that work great with the TG16 proto board - the version was definitely not a finished/final version, so perhaps it was pushed to CD?

Thanks

Am I correct in assuming the SMS protos are 100% identical to the released version?

Just double-checked; appears I have a single, bare SMS proto board - no EPROMS on it. Never wrote any reviews for SMS or Genesis games, but managed to pick up a few boards somewhere along the way; the other Sega boards I have (3, also bare) appear to be for the Genesis.

So - useful if you have an EPROM burner and want to play games on the "real thing"

Wow! Looks like the newb is looking to brag!

Just kidding :-)

:P

gotta remember, back when I was doing this, there weren't ANY emulators - if you didn't want to dump it and burn it whenever you felt like playing, you were pretty much screwed :( I was a happy camper when the first SNES floppy backup based systems came out...
