I recently obtained a prototype SNES game of Lufia and the Fortress of Doom. The game cartridge is noticeably heavier, the screws on the front to open the game are different, there is no disclaimer sticker on the back nor trace of there ever being one, and the only label is a sticker that says "Lufia 7/14". The person I obtained this item from has other prototypes that all have the name of the game and a taito sticker underneath, but this one simply has the sticker on.
As for the game, i put it into the system and it starts the game with a create-a-name followed by the intro about the sinistrals, and then the game LITERALLY starts at the fortress of doom with all characters in the high level 70's and ready to fight the sinistrals. I know nothing about these games but I think it is so cool that this game starts at the last boss. I don't know if I will ever part with a game like this since i'm such a traditional RPG kinda guy, but I would definately like to know what someone more knowledgeable on the subject thinks this game is worth. It also comes with a plastic game case that I believe it was originally put in.
if anyone could help me figure out the value of a game like this I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
