Speedy Gonzales SNES on EPROM Prototype board

[Rabies]

I am a former employee of Virgin Games (1990-1993) and Sunsoft of America (1993-1995).

I have a SNES test board with Speedy Gonzales El Gato Bandito on it. I've held on to this since I left Sunsoft in 1995. As far as I can tell, it is the final build, no different than the published Acclaim version.

What's this worth? I was thinking of finally letting go of it.

I also have the following, but I don't know if people collect documents and stuff like that:

SNES CD-ROM specifications document - This is a Nintendo document that describes in technical detail the SNES CD-ROM device that Nintendo had planned to release. This document was made available to publishers and some developers. It's 19 pages and dated February 5, 1992. Unfortunately it's a photocopy, but I can assure people I have had this since 1992. It has that "old paper" authentic smell to it. ;-)

Looney Tunes "HOOP IT UP" promo t-shirt. (Actually it's up on Ebay already, but doesn't seem to have much interest).

I have various flyers, catalogs, folders, etc that were given out at CES in early 1990's. (CES is Consumer Electronics Show, and game publishers showed their stuff there before E3 existed).

I have a high-level game design document outlining a proposal for "Blaster Master 3" which would have been for the SNES. It's a color laser print, dated 12-18-1992, and is 9 pages.

A print "proof" of Sunsoft's revised logo, stamped "REVISED Dec 09 1993". (Could be color photocopy. I don't know how they printed this).

A print "proof" of a 2-page magazine ad for Aero the Acrobat. (Could be color photocopy. I don't know how they printed this).

Sketches of objects and characters that were included in the games Cool Spot, Aero the Acrobat 2, Punky Doodle, and other games...


Thank you for taking the time to talkabout my crap! :-)

I'd be very interested in the SNES CD documents. If you're looking to let them go, i'd be interested in obtaining them. I think their value lies in weither or not they are schematics or its just talking about how powerful and awesome the SNES-CD will/would be.


Most of the docs arn't going to be worth a ton, but you never know if you've got something that the biggest Blaster Master or Sunsoft fan might be clamoring for.

Sorry to revive such an old thread, but I am finally going through this crap and getting rid of some of it.

I just posted the prototyping board on ebay (check the Ebay listings section of this forum). I also am going to do something with the docs. I don't think Ebay is the way to go with what is essentially 20 or so photocopied pages. I was thinking I should just scan them and post a PDF.

To answer your question Papa, there's no schematics, but they do go in-depth enough so that programmers could start writing code to stream video, etc. People don't realize they were that far ahead. When I was at Virgin Games, they had some sequences from The 7th Guest running on SNES. It looked pretty good!

I would be interested in this item:

send me a pm if its still available and we can work something out!

I would be willing to give you a bit to scan and post the PDFs of the documents. I think it would be something a lot of people would enjoy!

Blaster Master 3?!?!? Never heard of this until now. Did they ever begin development of the game?

No, at least not this particular design. There was a Playstation 1 release in japan, and there is Blaster Master Overdrive on WiiWare.

Regarding the documents, I think PDF is the way to go.

The SNES-CD documentation sounds like an interesting read. Any chance you can scan them as PDFs?
