	2 different developmental test cartridges with 7 games, one of which is "Wild Snake", an unreleased Tetris style game. http://www.ebay.com/itm/232161905377

	I think WildSnake was already dumped by SMSPower?

	Going by the sticker it looks like a different build.

	dump does not = release. We should support the sale and the dumping of ROMs, so that people continue to share with the community. Otherwise collectors will hold onto builds forever, as some are lost, since "releasing" them makes them worth less. This is an unreleased title either way and best of luck with the sale :) -Segasonicfan

	I bought that lot from MOD-MAN for those variations, but had it shipped to a friend in the US so will only get it in a few months.
