Bound High ROM – buggy, can anyone help?

Sorry for editing your post, but please don’t spread this buggy version. We are working on getting the ISX tools right so we can build a “perfect” ROM of Bound High and release it.

No matter who you got it from (although I bet I know who it was), once the ROM is out, hopefully noone will be ripped off by anyone anymore.

Is this “good version” you claim to have the same version you tried to sell me last month, which you said was a cart dump, and which you said you’d never offered to anyone else?

It is, and at the time I hadn’t offered it to anyone else. I certainly wouldn’t be giving it to some guy on craigslist, I can tell you that much. Keep that stuff in the community. I’ve since found out its not a cart dump and that I paid $3000k for a compiled game 8-O. At least it runs perfectly.

I still like to know what was wrong with it, and how it was played…

… or is it just some member here that made another account and wanted to start a discussion?

Good post, I hope that the perfect ROM of Bound High is someday relesed, heck I don’t even care if its the glitched one I just want to play it. Krisse I also have a very very strong 99.9% sure idea of who the person that supposedly sold CrackShoot the glitchy rom. Hint the person who was so quick to defend himself after reading your comment.Ill leave it to the rest of you detectives to figure out who the verdict is.

Same here actually. I just checked. I remember he wanted to know if I had any prototypes.

I didn’t name any names in my first post in this thread to not discredit anyone, but with all that bullshit being spread, I guess it’s time to clear some things up. Here’s the full story about Bound High:

It was in 2003, when I received the final source code from someone [name removed upon request]. He asked me not to spread the source, but he wouldn’t mind me releasing the ROM if I could manage to compile it.

I asked someone else [name removed upon request] for help, and in late 2005 he eventually managed to build a modified version of the source in gccVB. (So BTW, this also lead to improved versions of gccVB and Reality Boy.) This version ran pretty well on the emulator, but was very buggy if played on real hardware.

A good, releasable build seemed very close, but the years passed and it was never accomplished to fix those bugs. I released a review of the game in 2007 based on the buggy version mainly played on the emulator, but also on Hardware, as far as possible.

In 2008, jojobean joined the scene and somehow managed to get the source from Nakanishi and the buggy build from David, afaik by telling them he was my friend. He got these items for free of course. He started contacting people offering the ROM for sale. He also used some synonyms: mysterymoppet, Sam Gupta, Adell Fuero and ginzastrip are those I know of.

Some weeks ago, jojobean got in contact with RunnerPack and let him have the Bound High source to develop his ISX converter in return. With it it was possible to create a better build, which runs on hardware, but had broken boss and plasma stages. Jojobean then began offering that version for sale to everyone and their moms as a “perfectly running original dump from a prototype cartridge”…

Around the same time, LameBoy, not knowing of RunnerPack’s work, starting working on his own converter. Discussion about this lead to RunnerPack breaking the silence and a chart house of lies collapsing.

My deal for faceball was very real. I’m hoping this doesn’t end up being known to my faceball source or I’m sure the deal will be off.

I really doubt your deal for Faceball was real (and shouldn’t it have been “is”, not “was”)… and usually a deal has to be on before a deal is off.

Before I did this there was not a known working version of the game and very few people even had the shit version.

There’s actually been a working version known for many years, just apparently not by you.
