This teeny-tiny article needs some work. You can help us by expanding it.
Over the course of the Sega Mega Drive's lifetime, a number of games went unreleased:
| Name | Involved Companies | Details |
|---|---|---|
| AD2001/Power Ball AD2001 | HiCom | Info on this page is all that's known. A prototype has yet to be found. |
| "Amegedon" Project | ?? | Info on this page is all that's known. A prototype has yet to be found. |
| Beyond Zero Tolerance | Technopop | The sequel to Zero Tolerance. Cancelled when Technopop closed down. The copyright holders eventually released a prototype ROM to the Internet. |
| City Heroes | Samsung | All that's known comes from this Hardcore Gaming 101 article: Developed by the Uzu Keobukseon team and intended for international release; it was cancelled because the then-new South Korean game censorship laws were so confusing that they got lost trying to censor the otherwise completed game. The ROM has yet to be found. |
| Dando | Treco | Advertised in magazines, but no actual info is known. (MAGAZINE SOURCE UNVERIFIED — TODO) |

| Fire & Ice | Graftgold | Cancelled for unknown reasons. A prototype has yet to be found. |
