This is an odd request, but if you can help it would be greatly appreciated. I bought a Metal Slug 3 MVS Cart off of eBay recently and I have come to believe that it is a beta cart. I paid $300 for this thing, so I would like to know what it is.. and if need be, get a refund. Anyway, here is the deal. It is an English MVS cart of Metal Slug 3... the first thing I noticed is this... When you go into the settings and change country from Others to USA there is a 1 - 2 second black screen pause before the title screen shows up. This is surely a parental warning screen similar to the one in Garou if you make the same change, however mine does not have this screen... and instead like I said, the screen is black for 1 - 2 seconds. Secondly, there are a few audio anomolies at the end of stages... after you beat a boss, and right when the music ends and the POWs rescued are being counted... there is a hissing or crackling heard from the speakers until the end mission music plays. Now, there are plenty of times when the music is silent and these clicks are not heard... but they can be heard after every boss is beaten and a few times on the last stage (when going to shoot down the first mid boss, after freeing the commander from the electric field on the ship and at the end of the stage). I guess my question is this... does your copy of MS3 have the same things that mine has? Or do you have crystal clear audio after the boss is beaten and a warning screen if USA is set in the country field... This info would be extremly helpful in determining if this cart is a release cart. Thanks so much for your time,
