Maybe this has been previously discussed, but....
A while back, a dude uploaded several Neo Geo Pocket Color protos he had to the internet, and they ended up on various rom sites. I'm pretty sure I glanced at a few and didn't notice any immediate differences, but I'm also pretty sure I was distracted early on.
Just last night, something occurred to me that I should have thought of before (and which somebody else has probably already thought of) - roughly five years ago, some emulator developers stumbled across what appeared to be a "debug button" that would have presumably been accessed via a devkit. If I recall correctly, this feature was never implemented in any public emulator releases because what was discovered by the time of that post was all that was ever found (or something).
But, I realized, that was before any prototypes had turned up. So my questions are these:
1. Does anyone know of any examination, extensive or otherwise, of these prototypes?
2. Does anyone know of any emulators that implement the "D button"?
3. Is anyone aware of any attempts to test that button on the protos?
I'm assuming the answers to all three are "no", but I figured I'd check in with you guys before I started poking around on Neo-Geo focused forums. |
