In Topic: Just picked up a boxed 1029

Wed Feb 8, 2012 10:48 AM

I have a loose one I picked up a long time ago just because it's the neatest looking Atari badged printer I've ever seen. I've never done anything with it however, because I really have no use in printing anything from my Atari. If I did though I'd use it in a heartbeat.

Remember Da Fuzz was found with a "production label" but it's still considered a prototype...
Actually, I believe Da'Fuzz is considered production since more were discovered. I thought it was a proto, but was corrected :)
That's news to me. Where did you hear about more being found?

In Topic: Is this a prototype?

Looks like a review copy or possibly just a very early copy of the game with EPROMs instead of ROMs.

In Topic: Halloween Prototype 1 & 2 Videos

Any chance you can put the videos back up? I'm getting a 'This video is private' error now.

I think I remember at the time I was told that Castle was a prototype.
Well he was probably correct. For a long time Mr. Do's Castle was thought to be prototype only, but then the Canadian release was found. You can read about the prototype here, although I don't have a picture of it for some reason. Technically the cartridge version is still prototype onyl if you're in the US or Europe.

Obviously I need to update this page because A. It has been confirmed as a budget Canadian release, and B. A box does exist.
