I've had this for awhile. In fact I had more than one of these and this is my last one. It is Swordquest Fireworld and is a lab loaner cart. It has no sticker, so I made sure and tested it, though I sort of remember it being FW. Anyway, I'm probably looking to sell it. I usually don't collect protos of games that were released. Just more stuff for me to store with no room as it is. Not sure what this would go for, and I'll entertain some offers. Or else it may go up on Ebay. Do they allow protos on Ebay? I remember people having problems.

Has Tempest had a look at it to see if it differs from the final version of Fireworld?

[Wickeycolumbus]

Do you have pictures of it? Is it a WIP? Ebay is usually fine with these types of auctions. To be safe, you may want to omit 'prototype' from the title.

A Lab Loaner without a sticker, sounds suspicious unless it is clearly a different ROM from the released version. If it is the released version, how could anyone tell the difference?

[Philflound]

There may have been a sticker at one time. There seems to be some type of wear where the title is. No, Tempest hasn't had a look at it, though it's possible I got it from him way many years ago. I can't remember where I got these from.

Best Electronics maybe?

[Philflound]

No, I wouldn't have bought from Best protos of released games. I did get my Dukes proto from them though.

Oh, you meant that the TITLE sticker is missing. I thought you were saying that the cartridge had no label!
