Warp 1
Developer: Sun Denshi | Publisher: Gifu TOKKI | Release: December, 1979 | Format: Arcade
Yet another shooting game saw the light of day in December of 1979. Warp 1 is one of Sun’s lesser known games, and there is little information to find besides its release date, and that Gifu published it. It was then published in the US by Taito in 1980.
From what we can see and read from this flyer (and the few screenshots of the game) the goal is to shoot down oncoming enemies and missiles, using a crosshair aiming mechanism.

The picture is a mockup (a clear joke about the red room), but there really was a working Twin Peaks game for the NES, it was announced in gaming magazines and stuff.
It was by Hi Tech Expressions so it would have probably been terrible, but I'd still like to see it.

On that note, XBand had patches for each game to enable multiplayer over the modem, which usually contained bugfixes as well. Unless those patches have been dumped and saved, those official bugfixes are gone forever.

Those lucky few who had an XBand, got to experience the games in their final post-retail state. No one else will. As far as I know, no XBand patched ROMs exist online, and every XBand modem found has had a dead battery so the patches have all been gone.

Tom and Jerry for NES and especially the SNES game are OK games, I actually have a lot of nostalgia for them, but Hi Tech isn't known for being an AAA publisher.
But who knows, maybe the TP game would have been one of their more decent games, or maybe actually good.

Do prototypes count as something "undumped" even though the final game is widely available?

I still want a 64DD dump of ocarina of time, I mean that exists right? But Nintendo never leaks anything themselves (except star fox 2 I guess) so I don't see it ever happening.
