Sega saturn prototypes

[sg]

Hi i'm new here I have a small collection of sega saturn prototypes I don't know if they are valuable or not I hope you guys can guide me a little on that matter these were given to me by an ex employee of acclaim the games are x-men children of the atom, myst, dragon heart, batman forever, the crow those are printed in original sega discs they say produced under license from sega all of them are ntsc and they work like an original no need of any modification at all .



sorry for my english 

regards

Johnny

Awesome! Saturn betas and prototypes don't pop up very often. Valuable? probably. I Don't collect any kind of prototypes, Maybe someone else around here. also try at the Assemblergames forum, maybe they can shed some light on these. There are alot of prototype and beta collectors there.

Your English is fine btw ! thanks for sharing!

Hi Johnny.

Yeah, they'll be worth a bit. I can't value them, but I do know that there are PPL out there who seemingly have no issue whatsoever with dropping coin on such obscurities. Especially as the Beta's might have differences to the final retail build etc.

If you can provide good provenance for them (i.e bit more than 'my mate who worked for acclaim gave me these' as opposed to someone traded these in and we haven't a clue how much they're worth... damn it) then you can probably get more, as PPL like their legacy of origin etc. I'd probably 'start' them @$100 each.

My guess is you'll get more selling them on eBay instead of via your own gaming webstore: www.sakuramiami.com/

Why not see if anyone over at SEGA 16 is interested in these too?

All the best Johnny...

Hi thank you for your help guys I Have a store but we sell mostly games for the current generation I love old school games I bought a small collection from a gentleman in south florida the majority of the games that I bought from him were for the neo geo and the turbografx looking at the boxes he had I saw a pile of discs with stickers on it but no ink printing and then he told me that he used to work in acclaim and they were beta versions and prototypes they used for testing purposes like look for bugs and things like that before the final version were ready to be on sale he gave me those games as a gift so i'm not sure if I'm going to sell them but i have to admit that i was curious if they were valuable .


these are some pics from my personal collection and more of the discs I have
I also have 5 more but they don't have names on it same sega original cd's
bust a move 2 pal, alien trilogy pal, battle monsters pal, bubble bobble and true pinball

Nice collections shots Johnny. Do yourself a favour and sell those US Neo games in favour of the JP counterparts. They look nicer and you'll get more homecarts for your return

Not sure about the precariously balanced 360 though. That's just a disaster waiting to happen imo...

Thats one of the newer models its sturdy... well it wont catch on fire at least I have had my xbox like that a few times (although alot lower) it fell once about 3 feet and was okay.

That is a nice collection though and its awesome to have prototype discs of some games. Interesting pieces of gaming history!

Thank you for your comments I feel welcomed here thank you very much don't worry about the xbox   I have the system surrounded by an old xbox with a gears of war figure and a ps3  if i got time i will take new pics I got a couple of more games and systems as well I took a couple of pics today of x-men i noticed the credits are different from the retail release i also have it but to be honest i haven't played the game so i can't say what are the differences between both versions .
