Edit: Nothing exciting, just a garbage ROM.

Anyways, I'm not sure if there's anything that can be found via hacking the game. I'm no good at hacking. Could this just be a bootlegged/hacked ROM gone wrong? Just thought I would throw this post on this forum. And also, a shout out to my Ex-ZSO pals Xdaniel and GB!

Sabin's mentioned friend here. As an addendum I checked out the game's data with the MAME debugger and a hex editor but wasn't able to find anything else relating to just what this game is. As poor of a state as its in I'm puzzled as to why it was even burnt to roms unless it was just seriously corrupted which is probable. You can view the original topic about this on Unsee64 if you're on the forums . http://forum.unseen64.net/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1801&p=21023&hilit=+untitled#p21023

Also for all you ZSO vets this is ye olde LeeChaolan .

Welcome to both of you (and thanks for the shoutout, Sabin)! This is very cool. Do you guys have a shot of the unknown female character?

There's no way in hell this is a Martial Champion prototype. It's just a very early, very broken clone by the same mysterious company that made Fit of Fighting (a very bad Art of Fighting bootleg), and may in fact be a prototype of that game. It runs on similar hardware, seems to use a similar gameplay engine, and has the same completely jacked-up graphics ROM layout.

Why would Konami develop a fighting game on crappy bootleg hardware when they've got plenty of their own designs to choose from?

Hey GB good to see you're here. Seikatsu wa dou desu ka?


That's the female. Proto or not I think this is still an interesting find. Hilarious it ended up the way it did on the roms.

I just did my homework, that's all. The source code for the MAME driver basically says the same thing, and I would generally trust someone who's actually seen the PCB for themselves.

Welcome to The Cutting Room Floor forum. Debunking stuff is what we do.

Yeah, a little more extensive research could have been done on my part. Not exactly a great first impression here.

No worries. Mistakes happen sometimes. It's why I usually double-check things myself to make sure.

Welcome aboard! Hope to see you still look around for more stuff! =)

There's a ZSO reunion board here http://s4.zetaboards.com/Re_ZSO/index/ but unfortunately its largely unused.

Eh, it's the same idea; games have hidden stuff, we like poking and peeking at them =P XD

Glad to see all the friendly faces XD
