Re: deflector cartridge
I would say this is a reproduction i.e. not a real prototype or developers board sincealanseau wrote: can you tell me if my cartridge is prototype or fake ?
1) the EPROM is not socketed and
2) the label on the EPROM is not hand-written.
Some years ago either "Best" or "MyAtari" reproduced a lot of Deflector and Tower Toppler carts. Maybe this is where your board comes from...

The fact that the game's name was actually spelled "Deflektor" also indicates that it's likely to be a reproduction. This one looks like a Best repro.
There have been rumours that preproduction Deflektor carts were around in the UK in 89-90, as it was sent to some magazines for review.
It's a good game. It's a pity that there was no official release.
