It appears to be the first version of the Aging software to be developed for the system, and has quite a few differences within the fonts and graphics shown when compared to later versions.</p><p style="margin:0px 0px 15px;padding:0px;font-size:1.5rem;">Surprisingly, this specific cartridge was recovered from Brazil. In 2003, Gradiente/Playtronic ceased to be Nintendo’s representative in the region, due to this, many accessories, games, repair parts, and internal equipment were sold to nearby stores. Notably, this is the first known instance of a prototype revision for a retail PCB (as noted by the “X1” on the PCB). It is also the first SNES test cartridge to be found which uses a Mask ROM instead of an EPROM to hold data.</p><p style="margin:0px 0px 15px;padding:0px;font-size:1.5rem;"><em>ROM Information</em></p><pre style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:15px;padding:8px 12px;font-size:15px;border:1px solid rgb(232,232,232);background-color:rgb(238,238,255);"><code style="border:0px;padding:1px 0px;font-family:Monaco, Consolas, 'lucida console', monospace;">----| File Data |-------------------------------------------------- System: Nintendo - Super Nintendo Entertainment System File: SHVC-AGING.sfc BitSize: 1 Mbit Size (Bytes): 131072 CRC32: BCBABD55 MD5: EAF9F580B4798470F26786D9340922AB SHA1: 1B80D66A19E281BD4E1A7CBAD55E6285304F7F81 SHA256: F58837BE3CF307EDF550EC971993672D8D00E4FBA99A2C5DEE58383202D08C54 ----| Detection Data |--------------------------------------------- ROM Type: LoROM Cartridge Type: Normal ----| Header Data |------------------------------------------------ New Maker Code: N/A Serial: N/A SFX SRAM Size: 0x00 Title: Map Type: 0x00 (SlowROM-200ns; LoROM-32KB Banks) ROM Type: 0x00 (ROM) ROM Size: 0x00 (8 Kbit; Bad) SRAM Size: 0x00 (None) Country: 0x00 (Japan) Old Maker Code: 0x01 (Nintendo) Version: 0x00 (v1.0) Inverse Checksum: 0x0000 (Bad; 0x18D4) Checksum: 0x0010 (Bad; 0xE72B) </code></pre><p style="margin:0px 0px 15px;padding:0px;font-size:1.5rem;"><em>Special Thanks</em></p><p style="margin:0px 0px 15px;padding:0px;font-size:1.5rem;">Massive thanks to Voodooween for sending this in for release!</p></div> Internet Archive HTML5 Uploader 1.7.0 SNES;Prototype;Development;Debug;Sample wiiprotos@gmail.com 2023-01-26 14:02:17 2023-01-26 14:02:17 [curator]jscott@archive.org[/curator][date]20230509181042[/date][state]un-dark[/state][comment]Not Spam[/comment] true
