I've got Golden Axe and Agassi Tennis Master System protos.
What do the other proto collectors among us here have?

If homemade proto countsa, I have a cart to card converter for SMS to let me use any SMS card games on console without card slot (SMS 2 and Game Gear with Master Gear)

I don't have any SMS protos, but I'd love too see some verification for:
Dodory
Double Dragon 3
Street Battle II
To To World III
They're in the guide, and I've never even heard ANY mention of them from ANYONE. And as keeper of the SMS section, I feel a little awkward leaving them in the guide without verification.

No kidding! I've always wondered about those. It wasn't until recently I finally some some pics of Pat Riley Basketball on a rom page. What about Fire Fight? I've never seen any mention of that other than on an outdated FAQ.

I need to start putting people's names into the proto sections - this comes up ALL THE TIME, not just for Master System. If I'm not mistaken, these are Clint Dyer's, who worked for Sega for 8 years.

I have a review proto from Fantasy Zone for the SMS and SGG Frogger proto..
Marc.
I have various kind of cartridges:
http://www.smspower.org/misc/sms_sample_or_prototype_cartridges-01.jpg
Some are actual protos, some just display unit versions.
One interesting one is Super Basketball:
http://www.smspower.org/misc/super_basketball.jpg
I also have a prototype SMS with a different BIOS, different plastic & font:
http://www.smspower.org/misc/sms_prototype_03.jpg
And two SMS Display Units. One with 16+16 slots and one with 16+3 slots.
I am ALWAYS looking for ANYTHING related to SG-1000, SC-3000, SF-7000, Sega Master System and Sega Game Gear. Those are all Sega 8-bit systems. Even duplicate or simple display unit cartridges. Please consider trading/selling.
Btw. I starting working today on hacking SMS Display Units to remove the 2-3 minutes play liimitation. I'll post result in sometimes on my website forum.
Thanks,

Bock,
I just had to post this and let you know that I am a Sega collector and the first time I saw your pics here, I was literally drooling. I am so stinkin' jealous of some of that stuff you have. Nice job in your collecting, keep up the good work and good luck.
BTW. ckicked on the link to your web site and I have to say it is Sweet. I will be visiting it often.

I've got one of those weird SMS's with the different BIOS. Does yours have the snail game?
--Back on topic--
I've got a sonic 1 review proto and a wonderboy III late beta.
EDIT - Turns out it's a prerelease. Finally bought the full game. There's no differences other then the title.

I am looking for the promo display "Sega Kiosk System"..
Welcome to the club.
They pop from time to time on eBay. There's at least one a year.
Some pictures: http://www.smspower.org/db/sms_store_display_unit-bios.shtml
Note that you can't actually play more than 2/3 minutes with those unit. They reset themselves after this time.

Heh, those look like the lot of 6 Kiosk carts I sold in the CGE auction last month. ...unless by some bizarre coincidence you managed to get 6 kiosk carts with the exact same games on them.

Hey...well I got these games from "therainking818" on ebay. I won these carts on August 30th last month. Is that you or someone else? Talk about interesting if these were from you.
Raccoon Lad
09-15-2005, 03:06 PM
Heh, those carts went from eBay (lot of 13) to me (I kept 3), to the CGE swap meet (4 more sold in the swap meet), to the CGE auction, then back to eBay again, and then to you.

Ahhhh...I see. So...do you remember the exact 13? Which 3 did you keep? Which 4 did CGE keep? Of course I have the other 6. Awesome though in how these games get around. Now I meet the guy who had the original 13 in these forums. :)
Btw...do you know anyone that has the Sega Kiosk System? I cant find this system for the life of me.
Raccoon Lad
09-16-2005, 04:41 PM
I kept these 3:
Alex Kidd in Miracle World
Space Harrier
Fantasy Zone
These sold at the CGE Swap Meet:
Ghostbusters
Choplifter
Gangster Town
Rambo
And you got the rest.
Be patient, at least 1 Kiosk system shows up on eBay per year. But be prepared to pay $250 minimum for it. Anyone who own the Kiosk system is a serious hardcore collector.

I used to have the kiosk system, but I sold it to portnoyd because I had no room for it....I think it's sitting in storage in Vegas as we speak.
I have some pretty cool Master System protos, Pat Riley, Dick Tracy, Donald Duck that says "work in progress" at the title screen among others...

Yeah, that thing is pretty big... Postage won't be cheap either.

I can't rightly say I have any real protos (with one exception of sorts, noted in the text under my username ;) ), but if I could find a legit proto for any system cheap enough (doesn't matter what game), I just might buy it...

Bock: MY Donald Duck does look similar. Dick Tracy, no idea how different.
I have the following proto/sample carts for the sms...
Alex kidd the lost stars
R-type
Thunderblade
Double hawk
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/segamastersystem/Picture081.jpg
I also have an official Activision released sample cart of Cyborg hunter but i would have to get a picture of that one for you all to look at
Apart from that i have an promo master system cart which was meant for store displays in Brazil
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/segamastersystem/Picture095.jpg
And one hell of a rare hang on card which i believe may have been an early promo type (released in 86)

Heres the Cyborg Hunter i bought from Buyatari the other year
