i dont think any new coding is being done, which i think is whats needed to get complete compatability

sounds like he is just making more carts to sell, maybe he will pop in here at sometime and answer your question
or you could ask over at the sega-16.com forums

From the website:

"Furthermore, it will now save and load perfectly on a Genesis 32X, Sega CD, Sega CDX, JVC X'Eye, and Pioneer Laseractive. Finally, you can run the game without problems, no matter what set up you have. "

whoa that new cover art is way better. I kinda want another one now. I think the old cover art was fine, and had the feel of old genesis rpgs, but this new stuff is alot better. It's nice that we'll be able to tell who has the original runs and who has a later version as well.

[VACRMH]

Well that sucks.

The only reason I have a spare genny around was to play my first run copy, and now this new run plays on the CDX.

Bah

Hello.

Now, as of October 9th, 2007, we are taking pre-orders for the third production run of Beggar Prince! Orders will begin shipping to customers in November, 2007. To learn the full details of the third production run, please read this article.

Visit beggarprince.com to place your order directly.

Thanks everyone for your continued interest, support and dedication. Never let dreams die!

I like the old-school Genesis game design for the box art!

Son of a bitch I'm buying it again. :P

Maaweee I can finally get a copy. I guess its alright I didnt have the money to pick it up during the first or second run, since they've worked some bugs out.

[DaBargainHunta]

What about the Nomad? It wasn't mentioned. Any issues there?

[suppafly]

No dude

[Starwander]

I just placed an order for it! Thank you for keeping the community alive.

[zektor]

Yes, thanks for keeping the Genesis alive guys! Awesome stuff!

[Cornelius]

We'll see if this one gets merged too...

Missed out on the 'first edition' (or whatever you want to call it) of Beggar Prince? Well here ya go!

I'd like to pick it up so I have both, but just too much for me to spend on 1 game (plus I only play on the Nomad). Er, if that didn't make it clear, this isn't my auction, I just had a search going for it.

[Dark_Sol]

Oh the greedey dojar did a BIN! lol

The new cover art is absolutely amazing! I love the Prince's expression! Thanks for this, now I have a reason to buy it again. My original slipcover came to me with some water damage to it, I didn't feel like bother Brandon Cobb about something so nitpicky, heh. (I'm looking for a copy of the first/second run version if anyone has one up for trade/sell. *wink*)

I will continue to support Super Fighter Team and the upcoming Tavern RPG, as well as any homebrew company/game that creates some passion and heart and write their code with their blood, sweat, and tears. All those homebrew games which play like nothing more than a freeware app do not interest me... games like Beggar Prince make me happy to be a videogamer.

Keep dreams alive.

So like I kinda wish I had a genny. Oh well.

Is this game actually good? Best Genny RPG was Phantasy Star 4 - does it beat PS4?

I havent played beggar prince for more than an hour, but i´d say that PS4 is better...but that is to be expected...

PS4 is in my opinion the best genesis rpg there is...but beggar prince is pretty good too

Fuck it, me too! Woot!

[108Stars]

I like it just as much as PS IV. It is very different, though. Much more simplistic and funny. You must not equip anything, there is no money system. The graphics on maps are very detailed.
Different, but on the same level as PS IV.

[Vroomfunkel]

The new cover art is eleventy-one times better than the first lot ... I know it's a stupid reason to buy/not buy the game, but as any publisher will tell you, it makes a hell of a difference anyway.

Fixing those save bugs will make a lot of people happy though. Congrats! If I still had a MD, I would buy a copy.

ReVival magazine (France) published a review of Beggar Prince in this month's issue.

Do we have an ETA on this 3rd batch? I heard they were supposed to ship sometime this month? Any truth to that?
