Arcus Spirits

Arcus Spirits is the Super Famicom port of Arcus Odyssey for the Sega Genesis and Sharp X68000. A North American release was planned, but canceled after Wolf Team's American publisher was bought out by Sega. However, a nearly-complete prototype of the American version of the game has been dumped.

The message was moved to offset 0x42 in the US prototype and padded with two extra blank lines.
