Mr. Postman Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Cool beans. I've hunted for protos for years with very few results. I guess that's the joy of the hunt, when you actually come across that proto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 035-02 is 2/4/83. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atari70s Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 the difference that i see from the final version date on start up still 1982 when the aliens fly off the screen ( and come back on) the screen shows 2 aliens for a second or 2. also not every time but after a round it sometimes kills u . and u loose a life. im doing this on a black and white tv so color might be different. the sound is about the same i dont notice any differences. also the text looks normal and the point system seems normal.

atari70s Posted July 3, 2006 Author Share Posted July 3, 2006 Ask and then u shall recieve The close up of the text label The chips of magic. See dated 1982 Unlike the 1983 version, The lines that flash next to it doesnt do so right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 And why couldn't the 8-bit Galaxian have had the nice text graphic like the 2600 version? Programmers preference I guess. There's no reason other than the programmer chose not to put it in. Looks like a legit proto to me. Congrats. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusk2600 Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 i would never had traded a vectrex for a galaxian final version proto. nice find nonetheless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
