Sim City on NES

this seller has the Nintendo Vidpro display card of Sim City
http://www.ebay.com/itm/190650610531

this means the game should have been quite far in development... anyone has any info or scans?

 

There was an article on the game in Nintendo Power a year or two back.

 

If I remember right that article made it sound as though Nintendo Power themselves still have the cartirdge.

 

What do you think they use to prop up their couches?

 

Are there any pictures of it? The SNES version is my favorite SimCity to date, and I'm curious what the NES version would've looked like.

Look like he's given up re-listing it.

 

Forgive me this necro, but maybe better the starting a new thread.

I got involved into a discussion about SimCity on the NES not long ago.
The usual googling revealed nothing new.

It is known that the Prototype cartridge had been found by Scott Pelland in 2005,
which never ended up as a ROM on the internet.

So, we know there is a prototype cartridge.

I contacted Mr. Pelland via google+. Any reply is appreciated and will be posted here.
