GAME NOTE
A prototype that has changed hands a few times over the past few years, initially it was owned by "Shiggy" of gbadev.org fame, then is was sold to a German collector for some 3-400 euros, then resold to a Dutch collector for roughly 250 euros before it eventually was sold as part of a package deal (2 prototypes) for 300 euros.

Neither of the previous owners were able to provide the name of the Baseball game included on the cart, other than it had to be something made by Nintendo. Well the game turned out to be Famista 64, a baseball game published by Namco. How it ended up on a cart that says "Nintendo EAD" remains a mystery, who knows if someone created the dymo label at some point to make the cart more interesting.

While Famista 64 isn't that interesting, the very early N64 flash cart surely is as it most likely was written to with a Virtualboy writer.
