Yeah, they look really good. I've examined them closely, and they look real and legitimate to me. Unless he some how got hold of really high quality development screenshots.
Most on the net have website logos on them, and the videos tend to be too low res.

I'd love to get my hands on it and check how good or bad it was going to be. I know TFB never made it, but everyone must admit to being curious.

A second person there claims to have it actually, as well. I wasn't even aware that it had made it such a playable stage for there to be a demo.

The thing is, if people are interested in purchasing such a thing, I'd guess it would go over the $500 mark at least. American NES proto cartridges have often gone for more than that amount, even when there has been mass produced JPN and UK versions. Well, unless you have spare prototype games to trade.

Now only if you'd tell me why the screens have "PSExtreme.net" written over them...

edit:
Errr.. Ofcourse.. his name is PSExtreme..  ::)
Well, I've heard some other people (Chad from http://www.star-control.com) had it, too... And, IIRC, I've heard them talk about giving it away (ISO or whatever), too... Or something like that.. Can't remember...
