==Can anyone find this critical ''Outworld 2375 AD'' Nintendo Age thread?==
 
*[https://www.unseen64.net/2019/05/30/outworld-2375ad-genesis-cancelled/ 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 [https://connect.gocollect.com/forum/messageview.cfm?StartRow=1&catid=5&threadid=125080 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?
