[size=140]You have seen the film, bought the merchandise and probably played the flash game online too but what if Wreck It Ralph had appeared on a real retro console?
Well not it has! Prolific homebrewer Future Driver (who also made the rather fun Pringles game) has recreated Disney's classic game on the Sega Mega Drive in true 16-bit style. [/size]

[size=140]As you can see from these screenshots the game looks great and remains very authentic to the game seen in the hit movie. It is 1 megabit in size and can be played with a standard 3 button pad on real hardware via an Everdrive flashcart or on emulators such as Kega Fusion.[/size]

[size=140]The ROM file is available for free from the coders website, which is linked below. For those who cannot wait or want to see more then just watch the video below to see how great this homebrew game is.
Can he fix it?[/size]

Wonder if someone could use the code for Beauty & the Beast and make an Intellivision version?

The developer hasn't released the rom and has asked that no one dumps or distributes it. Hopefully he'll make a second run of carts with more advance notice/publicity...

The private auction had a lot of restrictions on it. Another one (one of the numbered ones) recently sold for a little over $100 in NA as well. I don't know what the person asking $300 is thinking as they haven't sold anywhere near that price.

I just added a review of the game as a featured game review.
Excellent stuff!

Any way of contacting these guys for a Dev interview?

Brilliant review btw fella..

Glad you enjoyed it. Contacting these guys for an interview is certainly an interesting question. The person from Airwalk Studios who worked on the game is a member over at Nintendo Age (dra600n), so I may be able to ask him there. I suppose Future Driver can be reached via their web site.

Hey guys, I just stumbled upon this thread today, so I figured I would register and answer some of the questions in here :) I may forget to check back here, but you can reach me on NintendoAge, or if you're as old school as me, AIM (dra600n).
Also, your review was great! Thank you for the kind words and compliments towards my version! :21: I just added you to my Buddy list on AOL.

And big thanks to dra600n for offering the file! If you have a paypal donation account, I'd make a small contribution...

@Tom - I replied to your PM on NintendoAge, thank you! Again, donations aren't necessary, but I know some people don't like that response, so I'm leaving it up to you (if you decide not to, do not worry, I won't be offended!)
I really hope the rest of you enjoy the game! It was a very fun (and sometimes very stressful) project, and even though there's a few things I would change up now, but I'm happy with the end result, and I hope everyone else feels the same

Also, the pies give you a short period of invincibility and also increases fixing windows from 100 points to 200.

I can provide a cart only copy if you'd like one, or if you know someone who can make them, feel free to have that person make one for you (I can provide you the artwork to print out the label and clamshell artwork).
I would love one if you are offering! Just let me know how much you want including postage to the UK!

Big fan of Dra600ns work. Bought Hangman SG as living proof that a hobbyist can both program and release a real cartridge game. This is very tempting!
His version of the game is really excellent. I wrote a featured review for it: Fix-It Felix Review (http://http).

Future Driver is Japanese and Airwalk have only really done a few simple games so not sure there is much point.
It's true that I had only done one game prior that was very simple, but even simple games can have unique and interesting stories behind them! (Hangman SG has no cool story, unfortunately :)

I dunno fella, this is a slight different idea to the normal interviews. Here i want to test out for a Speak to the Devs, a smaller interview that we do direct rather than open to the forum to give them some airtime that may help promote them and us in return. :)
