A thread for talking about unreleased games that have been dumped/leaked/whatever. The Vanilla Ice Game Boy game was apparently in the Gigaleak, and today, the Hidden Palace dropped the heretofore unreleased PS1 port of Killing Time from Acclaim.

Tenori-on, a protoype title developed by Toshio Iwai, developer of Electroplankton on DS, has been dumped - I'd not heard of this before today, but apparently only about 120 were sold at an expo in Japan in 2000 and was never released otherwise.

I can confirm it works on the Flash Masta cart, too - shows up as "Wonder Witch" in the menu.

So...it's a Wonderswan version of the Tenori-On instrument?

Apparently, there were only about 120 units made and sold at some expo in Japan in 2000, so I would imagine it's obscurity even on the Wiki is down to how rare it is.

Both of the heavily hyped then cancelled Blizzard side projects were leaked in the past few years.

Warcraft: Adventures was the point & click graphic adventure game that they collaborated with the team who did the Zelda CD-i games back in the late 90's. It didn't turn out great, and instead of taking on the task of redesigning it, they just canned it.


Starcraft: Ghost was a third-person action/stealth game that was supposed to come out on PS2/GC/Xbox. Another collaboration with a different company, this time Nihilistic Software who previously had done the Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption game.


You can find builds of both of those games online. Warcraft's the PC version and plays all the way through, but Starcraft is an Xbox build, and may have issues with actual hardware and with emulators.

This Gamecom (Tiger handheld thing) port of Castlevania Symphony of the Night is truly a thing to behold!

Oh, yeah. I played some of The Sacred Pools, an "adult-themed" FMV game Sega of America made and never released. Hidden Palace dropped disc images for PC, Saturn, and PS1 (!) last month.

that was published by SegaSoft, wasn't it? they were always less bound to Sega's own systems than the rest of the company.

I don't know what I was expecting when I clicked on this video, but... it sure wasn't this.

But like this sort of... "have 40 abstract colored shapes and experiment shoving them in things that randomly take them away and reward more" gameplay was like, a thing for a while? It's like this is a whole game made of The One Puzzle from Phantasmagoria 2.

Yeah, I mean, I cut it some slack because it's not finished, but I don't know that a finished version of it would have been good.
