Prerelease:Game Boy Camera
This page details pre-release information and/or media for Game Boy Camera.
Rev 0
Curiously, all known releases of the Japanese version of Pocket Camera are Rev 1 (offset 0x014C in the header is 01). In the leaked Game Boy lotcheck sheet, Rev 0 is dated before the retail release date, but nothing solid seems to have been documented about it (assuming it exists).
Cut Moving Objects Capture
Within the Satellaview magazine Pokekame Magazine (ポケカメマガジン), there is a section called Pokekame A GO!! GO!! (Japanese: ポケカメ A GO!! GO!!) accessible by following the "Secret" (密秘) link on the main menu. Contained within it is an interview with Hirokazu Tanaka; the director, graphic designer and composer for Game Boy Camera.
There are various discussions, and in response to what functions he would add if a hypothetical Pocket Camera 2 was released, Tanaka revealed the following fact about a cut feature (along with other original ideas of what to add such as simulating flying in the air, crawling through water, or taking it into space (the last one he did not regard as a feature)):
"Actually for the Game Boy Cameras currently on sale, there was a function to take photos of moving objects. However, it took a lot of time to get it working, and unfortunately I didn't have enough time to use it (for when the final product came out)." (Japanese: 実は、 現在発売しているポケカメに、物が動くと写真が撮れるという機能ができていましたが時間がなく入りませんでした。)
