From nfo:

"Please note that it will be the last CARROT release.
During nearly 6 years, our team dedicated a lot of time and money to save lot of N64 gems.
But everything has an end and it is time to move to other projects.

We would like to thanks all the people that helped us out during those years.

Special mention to Gilgamesh who had been our main contributor on many releases.

Also be careful: it seems that some people may have the possibility to reflash N64 protos with a gangwriter.
You may be scammed with fake protos!!!!"

Fake protos!!!????!!!!

[Brandon.F]

Fake protos!!!????!!!!

There could come a situation when somebody has a cartridge and writes the ROM to it and sells it. I'm sure some people would want to pay quite a bit to have an unreleased game on a cartridge. But it would be a fake if they made it themselves.

Found the Level Select as mentioned in the article at Nesworld, but some of the old codes from the first Glover game can also be used. I've found some of these that work, plus some new ones:

Yeah, the level select can get accessed by hitting L on the file select menu. I just pressed random buttons in order to get it open.

[nesworld]

Whoa! cool stuff.... I was hoping for something like this to happen, thanks...

also, in the game if you pause (press start) hit the left button, there's another hidden menu

[Brandon.F]

That's awesome, thanks for letting us know.

[nesworld]

Tried the Space Invaders game yet? :-)

[Brandon.F]

No, I played pool in the gambling house though. Was cool. Interesting how much the game changed from the first Glover, if you ask me though, I would have preferred it if it was more like Glover 1.

[nesworld]

Really? I love the Banjo Kazooie feel of Glover 2 way better than the first game - it never really caught my attention.

Fake prototypes have always been a possibility. Usually hard to fake clearly aged carts but if you buy a cheap proto and reflash it...

Not uncommon for legit prototypes to have one label but contain another game entirely at all. Adds to the possibility of someone successfully pawning off a fake.

[Brandon.F]

It's a shame that situations like that could happen.

There's some odd text within the rom... I think someone had been smoking something brefore writing this....

I couldn't find any of that (using a regular hex editor). I'll try LemAsm.

[nesworld]

I used the hex viewer in PSPAD

[nesworld]

Hmm! something happes if you insert a controller in port 4 and press start... or try pressing Z while the game is running...

More debug goodies! :-)
