Release status?
For release
- All the other games, which were previously thought to be completely unreleased, were actually objectively and officially released.
- Development had been mostly/entirely completed, likely before the company transferred its assets to its sister company. It likely would have been ready to go, like the other games.
- A copy is known to exist. Claimed to be a prototype but this could be being confused with the cheapness of the original release. Is from Lansing, Michigan (the sister company's headquarters).
Against release
- Cancelled copyright claim (somewhat common for extremely-limited releases)
- Only a single person is known to own a copy, and that person states its a prototype. (however, going by the look of PGA/NHLPA, they could have easily confused the cheapness of the release with it being a prototype)
- Zero non-press images of game, virtually zero non-press information.
Can anyone find this critical Outworld 2375 AD Nintendo Age thread?
- Unseen64 references a Nintendo Age thread where a collector posts an image of promotional screenshot films for Outworld 2375 AD, and later another collector (notably from Lansing) states he owns a prototype. While Unseen64 claims they're linking to the Nintendo Age thread, its instead a dead link to some website called GoCollect? It's also unarchived, and I'm not able to locate the original thread. However, I'm pretty unfamiliar with Nintendo Age. Is anyone able to somehow find the original thread, or at least a cached copy of it/some information/the text/anything?
