So someone contributed a Shadowrun article and I need pics. I've gotten most of what I need, except I want to compare some of the dialogue of the beta ROM to the actual release. Apparently the big difference is later in the game, when you meet a female character called Kitsune. Does anyone have a save game or save state from around this area? Either the beta version or the release version will do.
They're basically the same, except some dialogue differences (the "morgue" is referred to as a "chop shop" in the Beta)

I love the SNES Shadowrun. If no one else gives it a try then I can do it for you.
I'll do it later tonight if no one has offered.

Many thanks. I played it a bit up to the part where in the graveyard trying to get the Ghoul Bone, but it's making me annoyed, and I need some sleep.
As far as I can tell, the save states or battery saves SHOULD be interchangeable, at least enough to grab some pics.
Here's a quote from the FAQ of what part I'm looking for:
Kitsune reveals herself as the shape shifting fox who revived Jake after he was gunned down at the beginning of the game. You can hire her as a Shadowrunner, but she is quite bad -- save your nuyen. Ask her about *Dog* and she will give you the LEAVES. She also mentions that the Dog will guide you in your destiny, so now is a good time to revisit him.
Another point about game versions: Kistune's dialogue is more sexually explicit in the "Chop Shop" version. For example, when asked about *Kitsune* she says "never snuggled down with a fox? Wanna try?" Some of her other responses are similarly flirtatious. This language was toned down in the "morgue guys" version, likely at Nintendo's request.

Yeah that's when you meet her for the second time on a night club, I remember.
Now before I start, I don't think the save states could be interchangeable. I've had trouble loading save states between different versions of the same roms (beta, alternate, translated, etc.) Battery saves could be, assuming they kept the same method from the beta to the final version.
So which one would you rather I played, the beta or the final version? In case the saves are not interchangeable. And what would the name of that beta version be? I checked a list and this is what I got: Shadowrun (E) Shadowrun (G) Shadowrun (J) Shadowrun (SW) Shadowrun (U)(17759) Shadowrun (U)(63540)

On FAQ I read there are some dialogue diffrences near the start of the game (in a bar) too.
Would you like a save there?

In my GoodSNES set, there are actually four variants of "Shadowrun (Beta)". You might try checking a different source?

Ah you are right, I must have deleted them then.
