For your consideration is one used, tested and working reproduction of Miss Piggy’s Wedding prototype game cartridge. Game has been tested to work on an original Atari 2600 and the new 2600+. Please understand and manage your expectations that this is a prototype game, which means that it was never completely finished and will have glitches in the program. Returns will not be accepted due to program glitches!
The backstory of Miss Piggy’s Wedding (from AtariMania)…
“Despite being coded in mid-1983 and scheduled for a fall release, this game appears to be based on the wedding scene finale of The Muppets Take Manhattan movie which wasn’t released until July of 1984. However, since Atari had a deal to produce games based on the Muppets, the best explanation for this discrepancy is that they were given an advance copy of the script so they could start coding the game. The fact that the game depicts Gonzo as the minister (as he was in the original script) instead of a regular human (played by Cyril Jenkins in the movie) and the fact that the film was originally planned to start filming in early 1983 (for a fall release) adds credence to this explanation. It’s unknown whether a more complete version of Miss Piggy’s Wedding exists or if all work was stopped on this title after this proto was made. According to the 1983 press kit description: 'The wedding bells are soon to ring... until Kermit, the reluctant groom, changes his mind and leaves Miss Piggy at the altar. The church becomes a video maze, with Kermit on the run and Miss Piggy in hot pursuit. The chase becomes even more elaborate when the wedding guests move about. Players can choose to be either Miss Piggy or Kermit in this Atari - The Muppets game, designed to be enjoyed by all age groups.' The game was canceled when Atari dropped its Children’s series not long after."
