XXXX - Fruit Chase (U)

[cruddybuddy]

Ahh! Fruit Chase has been bought out by Gold Nugget Casino!!!

 

[mynimal]

The .nfo says it has some kind of super-ultra-megazorg (Ahi!

) protection, but that Rising Sun have cracked it, so it should play on emulators, right?

I wonder why the company bothered to put my protection on it. Seems like too much of a fuss, we got around it anyway.

(If you don't get it, see my member title o.o)

 

[opcode32]

sceners coded it, and they love their copy protections (iridion 1/2 anyone)

 

[fluffykiwi]

I'm guessing it was nuked as it was never a commercially released rom, thus no number. Still a legit release though in my opinion and very welcome for my XXXX collection

Release Date: Late February 2003... hmm... maybe they should update their website...

what's different between the xxx nuked version and the 1723 - Golden Nugget Casino (U)...
it is xxx or 1723?

No, they shouldn't..it was never officially released.

 |  Hi, it's us again! Look what came up in our mailbox  |_____ Â_|___
 |  two days ago..                        _/  /
 |                              Â/______:__
 |  Hi guys, I have a special treat for you. This is a    Â/  Â|
 |  rather old (from 2002), but very interesting game    Â_   
 |  called Fruit Chase. Let me give you some info:      /______/
 |                                  |
 |  The cart features a heavy copy-protection: e.g. you can't play Â|
 |  play world 3-1. On the original cart everything works fine but Â|
 |  if you want to play the rom on a flash cart you can't pass world|
 |  3-1. This is 100% a good dump. You can dump the cart 100000   |
 |  times it's always the same. Also if you manipulate anything in Â|
 |  the cart/dump you see a skull-screen when trying to play the  Â|
 |  game afterwards. This game is old now but was never released in |
 |  the market so it's, like said, old but also a rarity which other|
 |  groups don't have access to. Also its a challenge of cracking  |
 |  it. Are you good enough to make it playable???         Â|
 |  Good luck.                           Â|
 |                                  |
 |  P.S. A trainer for the game with level-skip would be fine    |
 |  also;)) consider that.                     |
 |                                  |
 |  //------------------- End of Mail ---------------------------- Â|
 |                                  |
 | ÂOfcourse we were good enough! And because we were asked so kindly|
 | Âa small +5 trainer (yes, with levelskip!) was added too. Also  Â|
 | Âspecial greetings to the fellow scener that was involved with  Â|
 | Âthis title. You tried hard mate, but it wasn't good enough;-)  |
 | ÂRespect to you nonetheless, you know we just did what had to be Â|
 | Âdone! So everyone, enjoy this fine little puzzler!        |
 |                                  |

the original NFO seems quite funny to me now :hmm:

 

[betaboy]

I'm puzzled. This is not the same game as Golden Nugget Casio but uses it's screenshots. Why?

 

[Lily]

Ok, it really isn't that hard to understand - this was originally given the number 1723, but when it was realized this was never a commercial cart, it was nuked and given an XXXX instead. Obviously it's still associated with the shots for the real 1723 release.

 

[AshuraZro]

Why not just take screens with GB Player + GCN Streaming when a game cant run on emu?

 

[DeMoN]

screens are mixed atm, will be fixed soon.

you guys ever planning to change the screens?

Screen are fixed. Atlest now the mystery is solved.

 

[No-XS]

At least we got paid for making the music back then. I've never seen the game itself, or played it..

M-M-M-M-M-EAGA BUMP!
