Crimefighter Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 All right, nobody knows the existence of this game beyond a select few, me being one of them. So sit back and enjoy a forgotten game lost to time... 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 Funky! Definitely the released version has a lot more polish to it and seems leaps ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polyex Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I know Wizard of Wor does not got a lot of love these days, but I love the game. I remember seeing it premier in arcades, I had to have been 11 and was just amazed that it could talk! I have an arcade machine in my home that I restored and I play it every day! The owner should dump the roms of this prototype! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PizzaChef Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Are you going to scan the art and dump the roms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimefighter Posted July 6, 2017 Author Share Posted July 6, 2017 Well it was sold off on eBay, new owner unknown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Apparently the guy tried to sell it to MAME admin for something like $6000 just so they could get the ROM, and they basically told him (after he bought it for $200 on Craigslist) to go &@#$ himself. http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=367397&page=2&view=expanded&sb=5&o=&vc=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimefighter Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Well the seller who put it on Craigslist for $200 didn't know what they had. From what little I know a museum in New York bought it. Hopefully it won't go into storage and be hidden away for decades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Jack V Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Hopefully we can find the new owner and help him dump the ROMs for the MAME community to enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 What irks me most about the seller is not the huge flipped profit as much as bragging in his ad that *not even MAME has it* as one of his selling points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimefighter Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 The museum in question was contacted by me, they are going to back up the ROM data in case a chip goes bad on the board so there's a chance it could be released to the MAME community at some point.

Mayhem Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 You'd be nucking futs not to backup the chips, even if you didn't release the dumps to the public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRedEye Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I happened to see this in person last week at the museum, it's in the right hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swami Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I happened to see this in person last week at the museum, it's in the right hands. Is it on display now, or still in storage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Can the name of the museum be revealed yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
