SNES Chrono Trigger Prototype

Chrono Trigger Prototype

Chrono Trigger is one of the most popular Role Playing Games (RPG) for the Super Nintendo.

I obtained this prototype from e-bay. The seller worked for a magazine company and Square Soft sent him this prototype so he could write a review for the game. He quit his job shortly after that and took this prototype with him when he left.

There are eight chips on it labeled CT 1 through CT 8. In addition to those is one chip for the save game data. A sticker on this chip says:

Under the chip to save saved games is a dipswitch with switches labeled 1 through 8. Up is on and Down is off. The positions of the switches are:

1 = Up

2 = Up

3 = Up

4 = Down

5 = Down

6 = Up

7 = Down

8 = Down

There is a battery with the date 94-05 on it.

There are five other chips on the board. They say:
