For cart games, yes. Remember Zelda was a disk game first before being made into a cart in Japan and for the US so there would have been disk prototypes like this for testing purposes.AppleQueso wrote: Weren't most of these prototypes on EPROMs?

Yeah but LoZ in Japan was a Disk System game as was the prototype. I'd say it would be more volatile than EPROMs as these are magnetic disks (IIRC).Hobie-wan wrote:For cart games, yes.
