So hey, after waiting over three years, my aunt finally brought back the rest of my video games. That includes a 3DO, Turbografx-16, Game Gear, and most importantly, a prototype version of Frogger that I'd left lodged inside the Sega handheld before I left Arizona.
I'm tickled pink that I can play this again... it's not only a rarity, but a fantastic game that's among the best in the Frogger series. I'd like to give others the opportunity to enjoy it as well, by dumping the ROM to the Internet. However, I don't have the tools necessary to do this. I discussed my dilemma with Omar Cornut (aka Zoop, or more recently, Bock) a few years ago, and he was willing to dump the cartridge... but not so willing to send it back once he was done.
My question is this... is there anyone on the forum who I can trust to dump the game to a ROM and send it back? I would greatly appreciate it, and it would give gamers everywhere a chance to play this great Game Gear version of Frogger. If you're interested, please send me an E-mail at mneko@hotmail.com as soon as you can. We'll discuss the details from there.
Thanks again, guys! I appreciate the help.

Fuck Zoop. I'll bet Opoth (http://opoth.ath.cx/vt2099/) would be more than willing to dump it, shoot him an email.

Thanks for the heads up! I E-mailed Opoth fifteen minutes ago... but I also sent Zoop a letter earlier this afternoon. If Zoop's not willing to agree to my terms, Opoth will be the next person to get a shot at dumping the game. Frankly, I'd rather have Opoth do it, since he lives a lot closer... and frankly, I don't think Zoop likes me all that much.

Hey,

If you can't find anyone to dump this, email me at virtual.boy@mchsi.com . I haven't personally dumped a game gear cart, but I have dumped carts from lots of different systems, and my whole collection of Virtual Boy games, and I have everything to do this.

Do you have a pic of the cart? If it has an EPROM that can be pulled, that makes it 100 times easier since I have an EPROM programmer and can dump that in a matter of seconds, otherwise, I just have to take a cart edge from one of my game gears and solder an adapter to my programmer. Either way, I'm sure I could do it for you.

Thanks for the offer, but I think Opoth is gonna handle this one. I just hope he'll be able to do it... he tells me he's had problems with unconventional Game Gear carts.
