RedEye-
Why did you buy the game? I am not trying to be a smart-ass, just wondering why you would buy it? Plans for a release? Plans to flip it? Just want to play it? I am just wondering. Thanks

Excuse me? Why is what I do with my personal property any of your business?

I was keeping this ROM quiet because I wanted you to release your game without there being any confusion or it being "overshadowed" by the real thing. I can't believe you'd have this kind of attitude over what I do with my own stuff, how is it even related to your project?

Has nothing to do with you bro, nothing to do with your stuff. You can do whatever you want with your game.

I have a problem with someone else involved in the process and what they were telling me behind the scenes while the whole thing was going on.

I've been hoping you'd find time to release the real game, I'd like to play it as much as anyone.

I do have to admit, the buttar monster did really kill me there. Definitely worth 2k monies.

I hope Dr. Morbius gets to play it. He hasn't posted here since 2009.

Interesting. That real version of Bio Force Ape reminds me of some of the Aspect developed GG/SMS games (Sonics, aside from the first, Coca Cola Kid). Even the music sounds similar.

Wow, thanks for releasing it! It's as bad as I always thought it would be! :ass:

Thought i'd give you another thanks, and see what you stirred up here also, thought i'd never see the day

I'm sure he'll see it on NintendoAge, he's still active there, last login 3/18

The sound was by a company called Opus.

So Bratwurst was behind the original Bio Force Ape prank? Haha, nice.

Good to see that the original ROM has finally been found.

Nice that the story finally has an ending.

Now what do I do with my "Not worth collecting comp cart"?

I didn't get a chance to download that Dropbox link, it's down now. Was it the same as the prototype rom link on the Lost Levels page?

Tupin

04-02-2011, 06:23 PM

Nope. It only had three screens and you could destroy everything on them by pressing down and B. Except to when you got to Der Butter on the third screen.

It was a joke.

So it's finally been found and released huh? It's kind of sad to see such an epic tale end, but we'll always have this thread.

But was the joke .nes at Dropbox actually playable then? I wouldn't mind a copy of it... Who was behind it?

I imagine it was something Progace cooked up long ago.

The link from dropbox was an old rom from before the first 1 level demo was posted 2 years ago. Not really anything interesting. I took the link down when frank posted the real rom.

04-03-2011, 06:12 PM

Ah, I see. But hey, I think it's awesome that your interpretation and the real thing may both be available soon. Should make for a nice contrast. :-)

Probably the weirdest NES game ever made. Dur Butter's prophecy came true:Definitely was 2k monies

I still wanna see Prog's version...is he still working at it? I'm sure it would (hopefully will) be cooler than the real game.

Bio Force Ape should be remade with DP's members as the cast.

So I'm out for dinner last night with my husband when he starts telling me about this podcast for video game's he's been listening to. Then he asks me if I've ever head of this "Ape game"? because some forum pulled a hilarious prank.

It was just really odd having my husband relate to me a thread I witnessed unfold back in 2005, over dinner, what? Seven years later?

Priceless. I mean, what do you say to that? It's like being witness to a historical event, and the love of your life had no idea YOU WERE THERE! "Why didn't you ever tell me?! WHY?!"

I'm not even joking. Thread rules.

I just noticed that the image of the smashed Bio Force Ape cart was used in the thumbnail of a youtube video by Guru Larry. He didn't talk about the game in the video, he just used the image in the thumbnail.

Also, has it really been this long since anybody posted in this thread? I really didn't think it was so long ago.

Funny thing is I was thinking about this thread not that long ago when i was looking through the pics on my computer and came across the pics of the Butter MonsterLOL

I thought the same thing. This topic is like a dead president's gravestone. Flowers should be left every year.

never heard of it til now. guessing it wasnt released because it was too shitty for the gaming public and too late in the NES life cycle to warfant a release
