Outback Joey

Revisions

• Release: Final ROM built July 1993, boards manufactured October 1993, cartridge released November 24, 1993. Packed in with Catalyst and Personal Trainer, cartridge uses a round edged label, no box.
• Rev. 1: Final ROM built ?????, boards manufactured ?????, cartridge released January 1994 (no later than the 21st, and likely much earlier in month), included in later sales of the system and apparently shipped to registered buyers for free, cartridge uses a sharp-edged label, in box, with visibly cheap cover artwork paper. Possibly released to address a critical gameplay bug in original release.

To do

• The game got dumped. Mention it, when, who, why its notable, why it went undumped for so long, its emulation difficulties, etc. Is there a Hidden Palace entry?
• Is Outback Joey a mascot platformer? I didn't really get any mascot vibes, but I don't know, I guess I can see it. Once I get deeper into the marketing side of this, see if they ever gave him mascot things like tude or whatever.

To help with documenting the gameplay, there's a full playthrough of the game on YouTube. That said, the latest nightly builds of BlastEm v0.6.3 can also run the dumped ROM if you need to dig deeper. --SorachiJirachi (talk) 14:37, 6 October 2021 (EDT)
