So I found a Gameboy EPROM cart:
Starhawk
6/2/92
Accolade
on the sticker on the chip, which is in a specially made cart with a window for a chip and IF socket. I played it shortly and it seems to be a side scrolling shooter.
It's not on the DP list, but it seems to be elsewhere on the internet.

I've got one too. Mine is 1992, the EPROM is socketed, the board is a 2M-EPROM1-01.
It is released. Did you buy it in spain?

Man, these things get around. I got mine here in Northern California. I would love to dump it and see if it's different from yours and the released version. That will have to wait a while unfortunately, since I have no dumpability.
I have the ability to dump GB/C games. I had trouble on one socketed GB prototype, but I can give it a shot.
I can dump socketed EPROM games with no problems... send me a PM if you'd like me to do it for you... BTW, what is the model number of the chip?

It's not on the DP list, but it seems to be elsewhere on the internet.
It was released in Europe and Nintendo has it on their master list as a US release, but I've found other errors on their list which is why I left it off for now. It will be added as a non-US release when I start work on that section again.
On the copyright screen, does it mention NoA or anything that would imply that it's a different build then the Euro version? Chances are it doesn't since most games just say "Licensed by Nintendo" but you never know. I don't know if the Euro release had multiple languages, which would also be stripped from a US release in most cases.
