Doesn't it seem kind of petty to mention you have a proto/rare dump but
you're not going to release it? I mean the message just comes across as "haha i have this rom and you don't."
Btw this stems from someone saying they dumped the "Super Maruo" game for Famicom that he found on a pirate cart, but he's currently "hoarding" it
Why would you even mention it? Just... don't be a fag.
....Not a good idea for a thread, this is going to turn into a shit storm pretty quick.

Haha, bring on the shitstorm, I just wanted to bring it up, but I don't really have anything else to say.
Troll thread is for trolls.

Quick! Lock this before one of the 'prototype guys' sees this thread!
In before lock!
You are startled by a grim snarl. Before you, you see 1 Red dragon. Will your stalwart band choose to (F)ight or (R)un?
Nope
Now for more important information: I love cheese!
I have a serious answer. At the very least it lets people know the thing exists. Fills the community in while simultaneously an implicit acknowledgment that "it might be for sale." It doesn't exactly do any good to find something and then lock it up in a vault without ever letting anybody know it's there.
The other stuff...I have my thoughts on. But they involve semi-complicated issues of value and market forces as well as some introspective looks about personal goals related to the lifespan of some of these games. In some sense, proto owners are racing the clock. It's not worth going into. Suffice to say it will take a bit more than a "Yo, look what I found" post to make me label that person a jackass.

1) Collectability is often a reason for doing this... value goes down after a ROM dump.
2) Try to use better words than "fag". Douche.

Holy crap. It's been a while.
Doesn't it seem kind of petty to post a catalog error as an unreleased game?
Yeah. Ass sandwich.
In der von dem schloss.
In before the lock.
Needs more proto-bacon.
