World Exclusive SimCity NES Screenshots (Patreon)

Hi all! I'm working on a big article about the unreleased NES version of SimCity, but since it's coming together a little slower than I expected, I thought I'd send along some screenshots to whet your appetite.

You're actually the first people to EVER see direct emulator screenshots of this game!

As you can see, most of the features Nintendo added for the SNES version are present here, including Dr. Wright.

Some of the game is a lot different than the SNES version, such as this bank screen.

These two shots illustrate that the monster was still generic - they hadn't yet changed it to be Bowser. Similarly, there's no Mario statue yet either.

I'm hoping  to have something published in the next two weeks. It's not often that we get a peek at unfinished work that came straight from Nintendo, so I'm trying to make a big splash with this one.

Is there anything in particular you're hoping to learn about this? Let me know in the comments. I might even have an interview lined up...
