This is probably my new favorite thread. That R4 sphinx is fab-u-lous!
So, are any of those betas really for sale by those guys?

Yup, I spoke with both users a month or so ago, they're willing to part with them...at the right price. |

It had better be very different from the final to be over $100.

Yeah, that's very expensive, but the whole "one of a kind" thing is what makes it like that =/

Yeah, but lemme put it this way: Are you familiar with the Megaman 3 beta? The one which just has some programming and graphical glitches, but is otherwise exactly the same as the final? That is not worth $100. I mean it's "cool" to have something unique, but if it's almost exactly like the final, then it isn't worth it IMHO. |

Actually, if you look at Neon Tiger's room in in the back of the box it seems to be the same beta as Rodrigo Shin posted, which had the different Bit and Byte.
Which gives us a bit more of an idea as to where X3 was headed.

I must question why the credits for MM Soccer got nixed.
This is gonna be a tough one, but...does anyone have any magazine previews of the first Megaman, or any visual evidence that it was originally going to be an Astro Boy/arcade/FDS game?
I know I've got an early RnR1 preview lying around here somewhere, but God knows when I'll be able to scan it...

Like THE Donkey Kong origionally going to be a Popeye game? That's a mystery.
For the credits part, I think they were either in a hurry, or all sports games are like that. who knows.

I don't think that there is any prototype of an arcade MM game; I think it was always just a very early idea that got shelved before the game went into production. |

Thought so. Guess we'll have to wait for Retro Gamer to cover it in their "Making Of" feature...

Didn't find that RnR preview, but I did find this:  There's another, earlier preview, but I don't think it had anything interesting. |

What's different about this screen?
I remember a trial version of MM PU ... did it have any differences?

You can play the exact same Trial Version if you use the Transfer feature in Irregular Hunter X (MM:MHX). You have to send that Trial to another PSP to play it. It's Fireman's stage on it. I don't remember any changes.  |

What's different about this screen? Not much. I still thought it was worth posting here, it being a preview and all...arg. |

A whole [parasitic bomb] load of Mega Man prototypes are up for sale at the Hidden Palace: NES:
Mega Man 2
Mega Man 3
Mega Man 4
Mega Man 5
SNES:
Rockman X3 Sample
Mega Man 7
Mega Man Soccer (early, no gameplay) Everything is going for well over a $100. You can either buy the proto itself or have them dump it for you. Either way, it's gonna cost. |

Either way, it's gonna cost. I called Protodude for this. The seller is DreamTR, a prototype collector who is kindly willing to dump his prototypes in return for a bit of cash in return for what he originally invested in them. His "affiliate" who's posting this is "drx", who is also famous in the Sonic community for leaking over a thousand protos on Feb. 28, 2008. Just thinking though, it probably wouldn't cost as much a say a copy of BioHazard/Resident Evil 1.5 for $2000. A prototype of Rockman X3 would most likely cost in the lower hundreds. But that's just me. I think we as a MM community should pitch in, make some sort of a donation drive, and buy as much as we can. Again, that my rear end talking. No seriously, I think we all should take this opportunity before its gone for good. |

The author of the post has added pricing to the games: Mega Man 2 -$850

Mega Man 4 -$750
Mega Man 5 -$750
GameBoy
Rockman World -$750
Megaman 2 -$750

I know for a fact that Rockman world is early and is an English Japanese hybrid and Rockman X3 has a lot of differences. No idea on any other protos.
Let me know how much you can spare on each proto and we'll see if we can work something out. |

Damn. Guess I was wrong. Of all protos, I'd like that Rockman X3 proto, though.
