Beggar Prince - new Sega Genesis RPG: now shipping!

**CMA Death Adder** · 10-15-2005, 04:17 AM

Hello, everyone.

Brandon Cobb here, president of Super Fighter Team. We are the company responcible for the production of Beggar Prince, the new Sega Genesis RPG. I wanted to stop by the good ol' Digital Press forum and announce that Super Fighter Team will now be handling the publishing of the game, and all orders will be accepted through our website just as soon as the game is 100% ready for release. This change in plans is not going to hurt the actual product at all, as all production arrangements were made through me, using my own personal business contacts which are completely unrelated to OlderGames. What you can unfortunately expect however is a slight delay before we begin taking orders, but rest assured the end product will be well worth the wait.

Beggar Prince will retail at $40.00 per copy. Each copy will consist of a high-quality color instruction manual and a professionally produced cartridge (NTSC & PAL compatible) enclosed within a plastic clam-shell case complete with color insert.

At Super Fighter Team, we are 100% dedicated to quality. The first Sega Genesis game to be professionally released in years, Beggar Prince will have the same shine & shimmer of a big-budget Genesis title. I believe our asking price of $40.00 to be a fair one, especially considering what all will come with the game along with the fact that Genesis cartridges / cases / boxes are difficult and costly to have produced BRAND NEW (which ours will be) these days.

I would like to personally thank everyone here for being supportive throughout the waiting period, and an extra special thanks to everyone at the CGE2K5 who played Beggar Prince and shared their thoughts about it with me. We'll do our best to amaze you with this release. That, I promise you.

Never let dreams die!

How many copies will be produced?

**THATinkjar** · 10-15-2005, 05:07 AM

Awesome news

But please use something like WorldPay, so that I can pay with my UK debit card.

**Vroomfunkel** · 10-15-2005, 05:24 AM

Do we get any hints about the release date? And do you need a UK licensed distributor?

Wow, that looks like an extremely cool game!

I'll be buying one of these for certain! (as long as you accept orders from the UK that is)

How many hours will the game contain gameplay-wise?

Does the cart contain a battery-backed up save facility?

If you require anyone to sell this for you in the UK/Europe then I'm quite happy to discuss that possibility with you (I have nearly 4500 feedback, well respected seller of classic games).

For those who weren't at CGE, I can say that this is a definite must have for any Genesis collector as well as any RPG player. Looked pretty solid. Reminded me of the good ol' days. Final fantasy style.

Pick it up!

/me seconds that. It looked really good at CGE. 40 buck price point is pretty bad ass also. I actually expected it to retail for around twice that. Cool shit.

Like others have said, keep us posted.

I've had my eye on this one. I hope we don't have to wait much longer.

**dcware** · 10-15-2005, 04:06 PM

Will buy this 100% sure.

I'm in the UK and would like to be able to buy.

**Melf** · 10-16-2005, 12:33 AM

My frothing demand increases!

**Sothy** · 10-16-2005, 03:34 AM

**Truffle** · 10-16-2005, 03:58 PM

Me wants.

**MegaDrive20XX** · 10-16-2005, 04:41 PM

We support you 100% sir and cannot wait the arrival of this beauty.

**poloplayr** · 10-17-2005, 03:36 AM

Will pick up a Genesis just for this...out of curiousity, will it be a NTSC release or region free?

**MarHel78** · 10-17-2005, 03:50 AM

I already put my name down on a pre-order list on some German games forums. They quoted it at €50. That will be my most expensive Genesis game so far...

**NESaholic** · 10-17-2005, 05:22 AM

Wow nice work man, i read about this a few months ago,great it's finished now.Could you take some pics of the game as soon as it's ready for sale and post it here?I am interested,it looks mega sweet.

**Daria** · 10-17-2005, 06:40 PM

Bah. Saw the title and was hoping the game was released. Don't really see how this is "news" as it doesn't tell me anything I didn't already know. Nice to see the project hasn't died though. Can't wait until release day- now when is that gonna be anyway? :P
