Someone here should know if Nintendo made a GBC development flash card. The did have them for N64 so GBC is possible. Also the fact that the sticker says DMG MBC3, 16M Flash supports that perhaps it is legit. I don't think any flash carts made by bung or others would say that or attempt to be one particular board, they usually want to be something that supports more than 1 mapper type.

I have never seen one like this, but it doesn't look like a third party one to me. Where did you get it from and when?
Also, did you notice any differences from the retail game? Try pressing select on the title screen?

I still dont have a retail copy of the game to compare it with but i will get around to ordering one in a couple of weeks .. i found this in a pawn brokers shop and knew instantly it was not a normal cartridge. ive been asking on other forums about this but getting so little in answers so you think its a GBC development flash cart ? or is it something else it has pokemon gold on it but i currently dont have a retail version of the game to compare it with

as far as differences go i have yet to play it much i only have tested it to see if its working so far but i shall charge my SP up and give it a go today and look for any major bugs etc

I do think it is a GBC development flash cart, but it's hard for me to say for sure without actually playing around with it. Image
But seriously, if pushing select brings up nothing at the title screen, you could try pressing random buttons (hold some, press others at the same time) in the overworld and see if a debug menu pops up. I don't think you would find bugs in a localized non-debug version.

Depends on what it is, but it may be worth several hundred bucks if it really is a prototype.
The cart itself... I would guess maybe up to $150.

thats awesome !! and the strange part is that on the cart in gold letters it says © 2000 Nintendo and on wikipedia it says the release dates of Pokemon Gold are [TABLE="class: infobox hproduct, width: 1"]
