Honmei Boy
Developer: Nichibutsu Publisher: Nichibutsu Platform: Game Boy Released in JP: October 7, 1994 This game has unused text.

Unused Data

The game's ROM was burnt using an EPROM that once held the Booby Boys game for the Game Boy also by the same developer. Unused areas in this game are filled with the data from the aforementioned game. For the most part, the data is the same, with some exceptions. All the stage ending text sequences, as well as the staff screens, are translated in English, while the original game was the Japanese only. There is no proper English font in the data, so we can just imagine how they should've look like.

The game contains the initial boss messages:

"                  "
"YOU CAME HERE     "
"                  "
"JUST FOR GOING    "

Note: The frame symbols just are the mock-up of the original characters, which aren't known. Also, the Nichibutsu logo and icon aren't known for sure, but likely are the same as they are in the released version of the game.
