This is different compared to the final version. In this beta you start the game with all 5 talismans and four of the crests. There were two Demon’s Crest prototype sample cards on eBay and one japanese beta version was leaked some time ago, you can find the download in this nice anonymous Tumblr, thanks to Casey for the share! This ROM dump of the Japanese sample / beta game looks more like the final game compared to the video, but maybe with the help of our friends at TCRF it would be possible to find some interesting unused stuff hidden in the beta code. The enemies in the first beta level were different as seen in this preview video of a sample Demon’s Crest demo for retailers. The color is a bit darker but it could be because of the magazine. In the screenshot the earth gargoyle has a slightly different sprite. Thanks to Casey Strange we were able to note some minor beta differences in the some screens published in old magazines. As we can read on Wikipedia, this is the 3° game starring Firebrand (an enemy character from the Ghosts ‘n Goblins series), following Gargoyle’s Quest and Gargoyle’s Quest II.
The fight led to much bloodshed until one gargoyle emerged victorious: the red demon known as Firebrand.Īfter Firebrand's final battle, his evil nemesis Phalanx ambushed Firebrand and stole the stones.Demon’s Crest is a 2D action game developed by Capcom and originally published in 1994 for the Super Nintendo. These stones were so highly sought that civil war broke out in the realm. When united, the stones of the Demon's Crest bring the user ultimate power over demons and humans. Each stone represents a portion of the Demon's Crest. The demon realm is peaceful until six wondrous stones fall from the sky. Demon's Crest is a vastly underrated game, and one of the few hidden gems of the Super Nintendo.
It is a very cool platformer with some RPG elements in it, not unlike Zelda II or Castlevania II. But as anyone with even half a brain knows, poor sales do not make a poor game Dragon Warrior III was one of the greatest games of its era and it didn't sell very well in the American market either. So poorly, in fact, that it was one of the biggest financial flops of its time. This game sold very poorly when it first came out.
