Bonky got a strange NeoGeo cart. I'm waiting to find out what it is, but it's something undumped. Haze thinks it might be a NeoPrint cart.
Update: Haze says definitely a NeoPrint cart.

Well there is a community of people who collect everything Neogeo and don't want their collection to get hit with a soldering iron.

I think there are several sides to it..
1) people who collect them are pretty quick to snap them up because nobody else is really looking 2) nobody really even realises we care about these things, so even people with them aren't quick to get them dumped 3) nobody really sees the point, they have no real function when emulated.
It's like the Sega Print Club stuff, occasionally a big batch of them will show up, there are probably hundreds, it would be nice to have them all (but in those cases they're so cheaply produced using shitty flash rom many of the carts are already failed / dead)
Also we've never had our hands on one of the motherboards for these NeoPrint units (luckily the carts self-boot, so no bios needs dumping) I actually wonder if there aren't 2 different 'NeoPrint' systems, because we have 2 very different types of cart dumped, the later cart has 6bpp graphics (all the ones marked 'Special' on that page I guess, where there are 3 'C' roms, with the possibility for 6) The fact some of the carts say 'NeoPrint Multi' also suggests a multiple slot version.

Probably. Gonna hopefully send some other bits in future so might toss this in with it. Here's a pic of the boards if it helps.

ok, yeah, you should probably get it dumped, we don't have anything with those labels at least (although a few in the driver don't have any proper labels at all)
