Buddybuddies and I are happy to announce the discovery of 3 previously unseen betas for the Atari Jaguar. These were found on the same hard drive as the final version of Tiny Toon Adventures, most of them are dated before the launch of the Jag. As can be seen in the pics, there are quite a few differences from the release version. TMF has an alternate ending, DDV is closer to the 16-bit versions .etc- mostly inconsequential but some are pretty interesting.

We are also preparing a big release featuring a currently unavailable game (+ more) for later on this month- announcement will be very soon!

Big thanks to Tursi for compiling these betas for us :)

JAGUAR RULES!

Thats really cool, I remembered seeing screenshots of DDV that had the 4 extra characters and always wondered what happened to them! :lust:

Being a old Legend of the Red Dragon player (on the BBS's) I loved the Red Dragon Inn on the DDV alternate screen!

I'm a bit confused... is this related to the Atari Mega ST & TT computers that were used by testers and currently on sale on eBay ? Did Willard and BuddyBuddies buy one or more of them ?

Or is it something unrelated ?

No this is not related to the current few Atari HQ Jag Dev computers currently being sold, however, yes the 3 betas were found on another Atari HQ Dev computer that BB & Willard went in on sometime over a year ago. :)
