    Thanks I did a little something extra as well, as a bit of fun -- I used a Super Mario Kart soundfont I made and arranged/recorded the Vanilla Lake sequence. It's as close as I can get it for now, though there's still quite a lot of guesswork. Additionally, the guitar's loop-point is horribly broken and sounds very wrong, haha. alas.

    I think I know what Ed Oscuro is getting at. It's kind of like having a DVD with behind the scenes footage and extras about the making. If games are becoming more and more like movies, it would be nice to have rereleases on games like Super Mario Kart with prototype versions and betas as "special features".

    You would know nothing, you disgusting HOARDER! You refuse to hand over the ROM just to be a jerk, so we can't make .SPCs from it.

    Why didn't you just buy it? You have too much interest in it, and it didn't even go for that much.

    MatthewCallis: He's not talking about the one that was on eBay. I ended up with that one. He's talking about the one I sold to Nicola that van_halen purchased.

    you guys are still whining about how he won't release something he paid a lot of money for for free?

    The game is bug-ridden and not a lot different than the final product. What's wrong with asking politely for some game play videos? He already posted some I think.

    Its not like playing protos is terribly fun aside from the novelty.

    Default About your Super Mario Kart

    Sorry to bother you but I'm curious about your Super Mario Kart. Did you get the game from a store that sells betas and prototype games? I'm so interested in owning a beta version of Super Mario Kart as well. I heard that there is a limited amount that exist but I'm trying to get one for myself. If there isn't an extra copy, would you mind if I were to buy the game from you? Just trying to be fair, yes I really would buy the game from you. I understand it's rarity and no I'm not gonna dump the game or anything like that; besides, I don't even know how to do that. Just to let you know I do like to collect games and other stuff; I have my own Japanese Super Famicom with Seiken Densetsu 3 (Secret of Mana 2) game. If you want, we could trade if you're interested. Sorry to sound stupid if I am but I really want to collect that game. Please comment me back. Thank you.

    There's TWO Mario KArt protos that exist, mine and Van_halen's.

    I seriously doubt one of us will trade for a Super Famicom and Secret of Mana 2 game. You need to have some big bucks but I am willing to sell mine for the right price.

    Also, there are no "stores" that sell beta/prototype games.

    This reminds me of when I was like 12 and found a guy on a game trading site that had Sonic Crackers. I thought I could trick him into giving it to me for nothing by offering a copy of Zelda 64.

    How old are you? Either you don't know the value of protos or you're trying to pull a fast one cuz you're too young and don't know any beter like I was

    Sorry, I'm not planning on getting rid of it anytime soon. It actually came from DreamTR here who got it from one of his sources.

    Heh, I wasn't much better when I had just started collecting many years ago. I remember that I once unintentionally made a low offer on the Legend of Zelda prototype because I was new and didn't have a freaking clue as to what things were worth. Of course, prices have gone up a bit since, but still...

    That HadokenRy guy only made one post too. I wonder if he even knows how to use this message board properly.

    Jumpin jehosophat, a bump for the ages.
    Good luck to Beta64 ever hearing from van_halen, I'm confident no further information will ever surface on this game.
    Whaddya mean invalid parameters?!

    9,000 gigs of ram and it still can't answer a simple question!

    I wonder if the same guy even still has it. I mean, he was saying on the first page of this topic that he wasn't expecting to stay in proto collecting forever.

    out of curiosity, did you ever dump this? or you, DreamTR?
    I'd love to give it a run to check out. I know dumping is really easy these days but understand people still don't want to share their protos, just asking =]

    and yes, I'll totally help subsidize its release if that is what it takes


    Game on
