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. |
Bean Ball Benny | Nuvision | Cancelled when Nuvision went under. Lost Levels is known to have put up a CES flier for the game, but hasn't properly labelled it as such (TODO). 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. |
Converse Hardcore Hoops/Converse City Ball Tour | Virgin | Announced in GamePro #72 and CD Consoles #8. Cancelled for unknown reasons. A prototype has yet to be found. |
