    Default Parody World: Monster Party prototype (Famicom)

    This game was released in North America (as Monster party), but there was different version planned for Japan that went unreleased. Years ago, a Japanese collector purchased a prototype of this game for an obscene amount of money, and went out of his way to say that he was not going to share anything about this game (screenshots, videos, ROM image). A second copy of the prototype was found, and it looks like someone has dumped it. Mike from Nintendo Player has written a short article about it. Looks like someone was trying to stir things up by leaking it out.

    Possibly so which isn't fair to the Nolans as they're good people and don't deserve to get wrecked over it as we just don't know who sent that site the information or the file. Shady for sure if it's not them, and if it is, it does follow with their generosity of releasing files but they tend to do that after a cart release on various titles in the past.

    Thank you for releasing this! I'm going to be out of town over the weekend but I already can't wait to get back and play through this previously missing part of NES / Famicom history.
