Bang Bead, Proto or not? Kill the myth

Ok, I saw the pics from adols auction, bangbead has a dip sheet for gods sake, full artwork and mini marquee. SNK wouldn't make all this for a proto cart, or even a cart there were 12 of (Like billy pitt claims).

Also why does Billy Pitt cal it a proto on his page? When he knows all this, it seems not good to me, since you'll find people trying to sell it for a grand on eBay (opps one just sold on eBay for that much...)

I have heard nick th fury and others say the game can be had for 300 and that it was a wide MVS release in europe and japan. Someone squash this proto nosense. Since ive seen proto SNES carts and jaguar carts before. None of them come with full artwork, or even cart stickers.

the game is not a prototype. the proto carts do NOT look like regular MVS carts and they deffinitely do not have the full art work like A regular MVS cart does.

Bang Bead?
What is it?
A proto?
A full MVS?

Uhh no it isn't man, go into your profile, and choose "No Avatar" as your avatar choice. You'll get a broken image too, EVERYONE else on the board that doesn't use an avatar has a broken image. So it's not me, and I'm not gonna use one either.

It just looks like the sequel to Flipshot... by the looks of the screen shots there is nothing to new about it.. accept the goals look like they are all stars now instead of different per character. Flipshot was just like an air hockey/pong type game... Bang Bead looks the same. Flipshot was no where near as fun as Windjammers, although it looked better... The game could be good, but knowing Visco's track record, and the quality of the first game... I doubt it <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0">

So Kanji, you already recieved your cart? You mind taking pictures and writing a review for us than... we really would appreciate it since we have little to know idea of what it is like.

The fact is that it seems to be still unclear that there are more owners of MS 1 home cart than Bang Bead.Way more..

A quote from Billy Pitts "Proto Page".

"The game resembles a sequel to Battle Flip Shot. I am the proud owner of this proto."

No, your the proud owner of a regular released MVS cart, what's with this guy? All he's doing is adding to the high price hysteria.

FIGURED ID GET AS MUCH........

YOU MAY AS WELL HAVE "NOT" REPLIED, BECAUSE REALLY, I DONT FIND IT FUNNY.......

DID I PERSONALLY SAY I COULD FIND YOUR CART?
DID I ASK BIG BRUNO, FRAN OR ANYONE ELSE?

THE FACT IS, YOU HAVE SOME INFO THAT YOUR NOT SHARING, THAT COULD BENIFIT OTHERS WITH KNOWLEDGE.......

REALLY, DID I ASK YOU OR THEM?
YOU OWN THE CART ALREADY.......
