Early Ariolasoft Brochure
Posted: Tue Sep 11, 2018 1:32 pm

I picked this Ariolasoft brochure up a few months back and noticed the strange white D pads and white hang on card in the system and thought that you guys might find it of interest.

The quartet arcade cabinet is so cool !
Note that the cover for maksman shooting as seen on the brochure is different from the known releases http://www.smspower.org/Scans/MarksmanShootingTrapShootingSafariHunt-SMS Wonder if it will show up somedays |

I bet someone has one (unknowingly) in their collection. I wonder why they blacked out one of the game titles (Black Belt)? | |

1)
The font on the system looks like my M404 prototype: http://www.smspower.org/db/sms_prototype_m404-bios.shtml 2) There's another detail to spot: the Hang On card in the card slot doesn't protrude much. The card is either a mockup, it is shorter than regular cards, either the slot is deeper than regular Master System... |

Well spotted Bock! Looking at the white Hang On card a little closer, it actually looks like a sticker. | |

The game was banned in Germany until just a couple if years ago. It seems silly now, but apparently, smashing people to bits didn‘t go down well with the authorities back then. |

I wondered why the German only version of Blackbelt was so hard to find! | |

Also nice the screenshot of the SG-1000 version of Wonderboy. | |

Thanks for posting it here. I knew it would be of interest. I love these early documents that show things different to the final released versions.
Something else - the spine of the TransBot card, there isn't usually a space between Trans and Bot. |

Oh yeah, I've scoured this brochure for differences but never noticed any of what you guys have mentioned! | |
