History
Megumi Rescue was planned and designed by EXA Planning, and developed by Eleca.[1]
While fully developed and scheduled for release around 1987, the game ultimately failed its location test and went unreleased[2], although it would eventually be ported to the Sega Master System in July 1988 as Megumi Rescue courtesy of developer Whiteboard. Aicom would also bring the game to the Family Computer a year later as the redesigned Flying Hero.[4]
Legacy
In 2011, a Megumi Rescue arcade board was listed for sale on eBay and purchased by a Japanese buyer.[2] Over a decade later, the game was dumped.[3]
