## About This Content

The creation of the ancient PROTO DERE .NES led to AppSir’s modern day hits
DERE .EXE and DERE EVIL .EXE. For 33 years, the cartridge could not be found.

While not as big as AppSir’s modern titles, it was an important artifact that
was sought after for decades. Recently, an FB user was able to track down the
original cart for the unfinished NES game ‘PROTO DERE .NES’ and dump the ROM
online. He posted this in the Obscure NES Games Group:

_” Guys, I think I found something! Apparently, it’s a lost NES port of the
old PROTO DERE arcade game which was showcased in 2017 for the AppSir launch
party. I couldn’t find information about the game in any of the listings. It’s
either an obsure bootleg, or a pre-production cart that never made it to
release. Despite the internal damage on the game’s circuit board, I was able
to rip the ROM so you guys can have a look at it. It’s filled with glitches,
but I’m certain I didn’t corrupt the ROM. That’s how it played when I got it
working on my dusty old NES, so maybe that’s why it was never released.”_

Other users expressed their excitement for the game’s discovery with some
inquiring about the possibility of buying the physical cartridge. Some users
have even claimed to have played the unreleased NES game before and have
started sharing their nostalgic experiences. However, the group has now been
archived as some of its users have been found dead.

Fortunately, for fans of the series, it is now possible to play PROTO DERE
.NES on your home computer by using an emulator!
