Hi, thanks for contributing to the undumped list. I do have three things: 1) you keep dropping session IDs into the edits — remove them before adding the links, especially if you have an account on the website and are logged in at the time 2) could you keep the alphabetical order? 3) How do you know the various games are finished/near finished — especially with Dragon's Lair, as MrMark only said the game was completable? (I'm specifically looking for verified evidence — dated magazines, official word, etc. — the ROM header mentions something about "CES"?...) As for Lobo, do you know the dates of the magazines with the reviews? Thanks - Andlabs 00:35, 4 July 2011 (CDT)

Hi, it's ok. I'll go the same order as yours: 1) Don't know what you mean. I do keep getting some kind of weird error every time I do an edit, I don't know if it's related to that. 2) But I did arrange the new entries alphabetically, didn't I? I think the only case I didn't was with The Flintstones because of the determiner "The", and I just followed other examples of games which are labelled alphabitecally according to the first noum and not the determiner they have before. Either way, you removed the game because of its hybrid unreleased-as-retail-and-released-digitally-but-undumped status which is pretty uncommon (the only other Mega Drive/Genesis game to follow this very same status, as of known, is Garfield: The Lost Levels), so it shouldn't matter any longer. 3) With Dragon's Lair I have to say I just assumed it because of what they said, sorry. I didn't have evidence of the existence of this game so can't provide anything. However, I DO remember evidences with most of the other games I listed like The Itchy and Scratchy Game, Jelly Boy and Waterworld because I remember these games getting reviewed (by Spanish magazines mostly, like the ones I submitted for games like Mr. Nutz 2 and Putty Squad) and being reported as finished in these, so I'll try to get them back in order to get the evidence. Besides, I played the games to death and I know the released prototypes are completed versions, especially compared to their SNES counterparts. The Waterworld prototype even has European region lockout (it was going to be released only in Europe, like the SNES and GB versions were), something it wasn't usually added until very late in development. But since we need to verify with evidence, I'll look into getting them, don't worry. 3+) About the Lobo matter, I have the date of the GamePro magazine, yeah. It's GamePro issue 93, June 1996, and the review it's in page 71. I don't have a clear evidence of the EGM magazine though, but I believe it's circa May 1996-June 1996. And aside from these, I have played the prototype a lot (keep in mind I'm from SEGASaturno's staff and we were the guys who got it and made it public) and except for a couple of minor glitches (which I tend to believe the game would have been shipped with), the game seems pretty much completed and finished to me. - Wesker 04:22, 4 July 2011 (CDT)

Also, do you have the same kind of concrete proof that a retail release of Ocean's The Flintstones was ever planned? (If there really were no such plans, those would go in the Undumped list) - Andlabs 00:51, 4 July 2011 (CDT)

Unfortunately I don't have nor remember concrete proofs for this game in the form or previews or reviews that I do have for the other games I referenced. I just assumed it because of what was told in some communities about the game actually getting previews/reviews back in the day. One thing to prove it would be getting previews/reviews from European magazines, something that would indicate that the game was targeted for retail release in Europe at least (since Sega Channel was officially out of the European region influence). I'll dig into this also and see what I can find. - Wesker 04:22, 4 July 2011 (CDT)
