I hope that's the case. Regardless of how 'meh' it looks, I love Viewpoint. I know it wont come close to the original.

I still remember when we found Hammer Proto.
2 days later the roms were dumped and released for everyone to enjoy. Not a single cent was charged.
To hell with those hoarding bastards.
As for Viewpoint 2064 - It really looks quite pleasant for a 1999 game for what it is and the system it runs on.
The use of the ram expansion could have done wonders.

It's not THAT hard to find a prototype if you know what you're doing and where they may turn up.
I own 2. I just kept my eyes open, knew what I was looking at and got lucky in one instance.
There are thousands of prototypes of games out there, not all are fantastic or desired.
It wasn't like this was a hotly anticipated game (for as awesome as it looks.)

Heaven help us if a non-Freaked legit Neo proto shows up for sale.
Well, it's a shame it is for the N64, as I have seen draw distances better on the damn 3DO than that! Also, what the hell is with the music? That is no Viewpoint game, despite the ship looking almost like the one in the Neo-Geo... yikes! This game is best kept as a proto, or just as a free rom to the community. $3,000 for that game? I think not...

Whoever bought it definitely did not purchase it for the game play or even a collectors item - I can guarantee you that. I bet it gets sold to a release team or even made as a repro-esqe type thing to profit from.

a Viewpoint 2 for Neo Geo would have been amazing

The N64 could have used more shoot 'em ups. this looks ok at best. That draw distance gave me a chuckle though, maybe it's compatible with the expansion pak, which he wasn't playing with on at the time.

When I first heard about this, I was excited to see what I expected to be a N64 port of the Playstation version of Viewpoint. I was pretty disappointed to see what looked like a leftover 32X game.
The N64 really could have used a solid 2D-style shooter.

I like the lock-on feature with the rockets, that draw distance though is pretty bad! Plus I never really cared for the N64 that much anyways. The game does look cool though.
