You forgot to include Universal Soldier 😁 Basically Turrican 2 with different graphics and the worst marketing decision ever. I did the SNES version and we were 3/4 finished when they got the Universal Soldier license and told us to redo the graphics. The SNES version was never released due to the poor sales of the Megadrive and Gameboy versions. If we'd been allowed to continue with the original Turrican 2 graphics it would have been a good seller but marketing people know best don't they?
As I said, there are so many more cancelled SNES games, I just narrowed it down to 20 (which was tough), but by no means forgot any. Shame all your hard work was wasted after having completed 3/4 of the game. That's the most heartbreaking thing about making these videos - hearing about so much hard work resulting in nothing :(
i thought SNES Universal Soldier game got cancelled because of the license expiry or the way it looked, played, sounded if the Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive Turrican 2 had good sales why would a SNES version have been a good seller there were already two SNES Super Turrican games released
@@jasonlee7816 Because the SNES greatly outsold the Genesis/Mega Drive and most people during that era that owned a Genesis/Mega Drive bought an SNES as well because of the exclusive games, better colors, graphics and sound. Genesis/Mega Drive was barely keeping it's head above water which is why they released items like the Activator and console addons like the Sega CD and 32X. Sega realized the 32X wasn't strong enough competition for the SNES so they ditched the 32X/Sega CD (Neptune all in one)for the Saturn.
Cool video. The game on this list that intrigues me the most is probably Fireteam Rogue; it doesn't look like a particularly great game, but the story behind its development coupled with the promise of 100 hours of gameplay makes me extremely curious about it.
Thanks mate. Yeah, Fireteam Rogue looks really interesting. I totally agree with you that the whole backstory and idea of the game appeals more than the game itself.
Dude, People love these videos! You're so good. How long does it take to research for them?! Also, I'm sad for the world that that Steven Seagal game never made it to market... So much fun could have been had...
Ah, thanks a lot, Sam. It probably takes 5-10 hours to research them and prepare the script etc. Love doing these though, and they're proving to be very popular. Haha, yeah that Steven Seagal game does look good for a laugh; I'll have to download it to my Everdrive to give it a go.

Judging by the small view number in comparison to my other videos for brutal football, I don’t think it was missed. I still have a fond place for it though. Cool video again mate! You seem a bit more dry in this one. Funny stuff.
'The Shadow' was marketed hard in the United States when it was released, my youngest brother was obsessed with it, and had the action figures. "What evil lurks in the hearts of men? The SHADOW knows!"
Loved the film as a kid, saw it when I was rather young, my dad shown me it, damn good film but yeah very unheard of here in the U.K most don’t know it.
I've literally heard of only one of those games, and that's Steven Seagal's... and I can't remember why I know of it, lol. I like the look of Quik. It comes across as quirky, which is something I like in games :D Good video, Pete.
Wow you did a great deal of work! Great list. We all missed out on a few great games. Especially platformer. Bobby’s world would have been a game I would have owned hands down.
Thanks man! Of all the cancelled games lists I've done so far, this one has the best looking games. Some gorgeous looking platformers here, yeah. Shame they went to waste.
The cost of cartridges resulted with several unreleased...and sadly, so many great games are ignored on the SNES anyway...look at Chaos Engine(Soldiers of Fortune) as an example. It was a big hit on the Amiga, but literally unnoticed by SNES fans.
For me the holy grail of unreleased SNES games is Wing Commander 2: Vengeance of the Kilrathi. Supposedly at least one complete prototype cart was made but no one knows where it went. And of course the source code is lost.
onaretrotip I can't afford to start collecting for snes on top of all the other gaming I'm doing.. I'll have to stick to emulation for snes. Which ain't so bad.
The story behind shadowhawk as a game is wrong. The prototype (actual rom chip) was floating around from collector to collector. Rose Colored Games, a repromaker picked it up dumped it (non public) and was going to sell 100-150 copies of the game. Jim Valentino found out the games where being sold and sent a C&D to RCG and I believe he took them to court. A few copies were sold already to the public and someone dumped them. Two roms exist, the original dump and the romhacked dump thats a little more balanced. You also missed LOBO on your list. Another Comic Book based game that was meant for the Snes and Sega Gen. Both prototypes are out now.
Hmm, interesting. LOBO was in the Mega Drive episode so I didn't include it, but as I said, there are loads more cancelled SNES games than the ones in this list.
I loved the cartoon Bobby's World!! 😍💗💖💗 If they would have released Bobby's World on Super Nintendo instead of cancelling the release. I would have defently bought the game back then! 😍😭😭💘
That Mr Tuff game looked super familiar. I imagine it's some random memory from an old magazine buried away in the back of my mind. That Steven Seagal game is such a mid 90s game. Digitising actors in games was such a weird thing that sprung from Mortal Kombat's success. They were rarely any good. That said, I'd love to see someone do that now with flashy hi def cameras and some cleaver animation trickery.
Mr. Tuff looks great I think, shame it never made it. The Seagal game is hilarious, I'm gonna have to download the ROM to my Everdrive just for comedy value. Yeah, agreed, the wave of digitised games after MK were almost always awful. Bet they could do some crazy shit with that nowadays!
From what i know, its not even the real Seagal that stood in for the digitized Character in Final option , they just used some guy from the Team as a stand in.
I feel like when talking about video games, as soon as you say the word " super ", most gamers of a certain age immediately know where the conversation is headed ;)
So many good looking games that never made it out there, like Mr. Tuff and Jelly Boy (the Jelly/Jerry is an understandable mix up in Japanese, as "ra" and "la" are interchangeable in pronunciation). The SNES is still the most recent console for me though, so everything is a previously undiscovered gem.
Yeah, some gorgeous looking platformers here for sure, Wayne. Ah, that's one of the great things about the hobby; discovering the library of a console that you didn't have/play back in the day.
The Shadow is well worth a watch. I saw it theatrically. Like Dick Tracy it was made to cash in on the hype around the Burton Batman film. And like Tracy the character preempted many aspects of Batman before he became a thing.
I have had 6 of the above cancelled games on floppy disks for years as I have a Super Wild Card. Are Mr Tuff and Spellcraft not full games as I have trainers on both disks for unlimited everything and cheat modes?, I have Prime-A Super Hero, Steven Segal-The final Option and The Shadow all on 2 disks and Prime will only work on 24mb or above, I also have Bobby's World which seems complete. I also have 20 of the unreleased games mentioned on SNES Central such as Super Loopz (with Trainer), Network Q Rac Rally,Might and Magic 2,Mario & Wario,Turbo Toons (Beta),Universal Soldier,Arcus Spirits, Iron Commando,Little Magic,Metal Jack -Armoured Police, Batman-Revenge of Joker,Mickeys Playtown Adventure, Muhammad Ali Boxing,NFL Football,RHI Roller Hockey 95, Shadow of the Beast, Speedy Gonzalez, Street Combat,Super Drift Out (2 Disks) and Total football not sure if any are complete ?
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but if you're looking for them, here's LOBO: assemblergames.com/threads/lobo-snes.59989/?utm=rc&lng=eng I think Rayman prototype is pretty much one level with no enemies.
Hahahaha, true though! Thanks, Alex, glad you enjoyed it. The Seagal game looks so bad hahaha, but think I'll whack it on the Everdrive to see for myself.
Pinkie probably *is* a hairless rodent, or at least inspired by one. Informally, "pinkies" are newborn baby mice or rats (and probably squirrels or hamsters or whatever, I don't know) whose fur hasn't grown in yet.
Anything that involves a movie licence was most likely started as a shelter to make the development budget vanish as they released a substandard product to the point of cancellation. Like bad movies made in Germany to keep the taxes under the table.
The Shadow isn't a bad movie. It's kinda cheesy, but its also stylish and well made. The director also did the original Highlander, so if you like that movie, you'll enjoy The Shadow.
@@onaretrotip They were both favorites of mine growing up. Don't know if The Shadow is on any streaming service, but it is on Blu Ray from Shout Factory.
I hear the shadow never being released and all I can think is Mandela effect. I use to love that movie and remember a friend who had and odd ball collection of games. He even had a game for Jonny nemonic.
man oh man.... so many of these look sick, i really want KI2 on another platform... and fireteam rouge is just... WOW, i want to play that so badly, looks so good, maybe it wouldof been better suited for the 32x....
Definitely some really awesome looking games here, Paul. If you want to play Fireteam Rogue (and have an Everdrive), there's a link to the ROM in the description.
I know who he is LMAO. Firstly, he didn’t “discover” America - there were people living there, and other Europeans had been there before him. And secondly, although his voyages left from Spain he was not Spanish.
Strange that we haven't got any pictures or videos from snes ki2 anywhere on the internet, and pitty rare did not allow a release with analogue super nt like factor 5 did with super turrican. Analogue Super nt was a one chance.
I'm searching years now. There is nothing anywhere in internet. Only the title theme that the console version might had some similarity ua-cam.com/video/qTgmnLxmxQU/v-deo.html
Oh man. I still have a few Malibu comics that I bought with arcade tickets as a kid. Sure, I spent ten bucks in quarters to get a dollar some-odd comic, but at least I got to play Ski-ball and Dead or Alive. Damn, even an Image comics game? I would have gotten them.
The biggest loss here for me is The Shadow as I have grown to quite like the movie. The game looked great. Dork and Imp I think was released by Piko. I guess they found more than the three levels you mentioned to work with?
i never actually knew they had this may unreleased game... i figured there were a few. i wonder how much money they lost developing them and then not releasing? with music, bands always can later release all their b-sides or unreleased stuff but ive never seen that with video games so i guess they just go to waste sadly
Firearm's graphics ain't digitised. That's just plain old pixel art, but slightly more "realistic" and less cartoony in style. Now, The Final Option is definitely using digitised sprites on the other hand--and they just look bad.
Killer instinct 2 for the Super Nintendo what I've never heard that before where did you get that piece of information what I've never heard that before where did you get that piece of information?
Imagine if they released a combination of cancelled games for the current game consoles? I wish they would at least release them on steam. Some of these games looked like they would've been fun.
One thing that disappointed me about the PAL SNES at least was that it had the stellar first party titles but otherwise had less in its library and less variety compared to the Mega Drive, for the brief time I owned one it seemed to be all about what didn't make to these shores. It's interesting to see what missed out on a release altogether, it seems that it's not all about what the publishers thought the audience would like (I'm not at all a bitter ex SNES owner! haha). I'm surprised Spellcraft didn't get a release, especially as a western style RPG, it already looks a lot like The Immortal that made in on to the NES and Mega Drive. Aside from that it looks like we missed out on some potentially great titles, particularly Mr Tuff and Jelly Boy 2, although maybe not the Seagal monstrosity! haha
Totally agree, Owen. Mr. Tuff and Jelly Boy 2 look great, and I really like the look of The Shadow too. Haha the Seagal game is probably best left unreleased, but I will be downloading it to the Everdrive just for a laugh.
Very interesting games on this list. I'll be emulating some of these games. Killer Instinct on the SNES has very downgraded graphics when compared to the arcade machine but despite this the game is very playable. I rented Killer Instinct Gold for N64 back in the day. The Stevel Segal game looks funny.
Thanks! Same here; I'll definitely be putting some of these on my Everdrive. I was never a huge fan of Killer Instinct to be honest. The Steven Seagal game looks so bad, but I'll definitely be giving it a go (if only for comedy value).
I think the term you're looking for in Firearm is Rotoscoping rather Digitization, tracing live action video frames like Flashback as opposed to converting video more directly like Mortal Kombat did. Jelly Boy 2 seems like the biggest loss to gamers bitd. Mostly with platformers if you can swap the character for any character it isn't likely to beat the competition IE. "We got platforms, what more could you want?". ^_^ Congo looks clunky but interesting while Seagal's game looks plain crappy. I liked The Shadow movie despite poor box office and the game looks decent enough. Damn that Columbus game was probably alright, unique anyway.
Ah, thank you! Congo looks bloody awful, and the Steven Seagal game looks equally as bad. I will download it to try though as it looks hilarious. The Shadow is one of the best looking games here in my opinion, and a shame we don't have any footage of Christopher Columbus as I agree it could have been a decent little shooter.
Definitely some great looking games in this one. Let me know which of them you guys like the look of!
onaretrotip I always loved bobbys world growing up, would have been cool to play that
I've never seen it, but the game looks decent.
Shadow! I love movie. But I see why others don't appreciate this picture.
I've never seen The Shadow. Worth watching?
Maybe... It's hard to say. If you like heroic or comics stuff probably yes.
There was several unreleased games on there I had never heard of, and that's saying a lot! Awesome video
Great news! Thanks, Charles.

No need to be sorry! And yes, it certainly does.

I'll take that as a compliment, Shahid. But yeah, been a bit slow on making videos lately as life is very hectic. Hope you enjoyed it!

'The Shadow' was marketed hard in the United States when it was released, my youngest brother was obsessed with it, and had the action figures.

True.
For me the holy grail of unreleased SNES games is Wing Commander 2: Vengeance of the Kilrathi. Supposedly at least one complete prototype cart was made but no one knows where it went. And of course the source code is lost.
You never know if and when these things will turn up!
Awesome, quite a few unreleased titles I had never even heard of before. Might have a check a couple of them out.
Great news, Tony! Definitely a few here worth downloading.
Can only imagine how many ambitious games like Fireteam Rogue got cancelled, the SNES CD games in particular.
Yeah, what a shame. Fireteam Rogue doesn't look like the greatest game (gameplay-wise), but the concept and backstory are really interesting.
Some half decent looking games there, great vid Pete. Enjoyed it. I've never owned a snes, imagine that! Bloody love it tho.
Thanks, Ben! Glad you enjoyed it. Blimey, really? Get yourself one mate.

can you do part 2s of your cancelled nes and snes games
I doubt it to be honest, but you never know.
Hi, i checked the proto list for SNES on emuparadise and there are no games like LOBO (fighting) and Rayman.
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but if you're looking for them, here's LOBO:

Thank you, I have both, never mind)
I was really dissapointed about Fire Team Rogue back in the day. It seemed so cool.
Yeah, it's definitely one of the more promising games here. A shame.
I think Spectrum Holobyte was working on a game in the Falcon series for the Super NES.
So many cancelled SNES games, it's crazy.

YES! You're now among only a handful of people that gets the reference in my channel name. Hahaha nice. Thanks, RJ, glad you liked it!
That Bobby's World not being released is actually tragic. 😔
:(
I was surprised it was cancelled, because I played it as a child on the SNES station
Wow
I didn't know there's was Congo game on Super Nintendo but it never release.
Only release on PC CD Rom and Sega Saturn in different versions.
Indeed! Looks like quite a random/weird game.
Mega Drive released was also planned.
0:13 Ahh, why it reminds me of old flash animations on Newgrounds :D
Hahahaha YES! Ah, good memories.
I hear the shadow never being released and all I can think is Mandela effect. I use to love that movie and remember a friend who had and odd ball collection of games. He even had a game for Jonny nemonic.
Hmm. Bootleg possibly?
In Puerto Rico the only thing boot leg here is movies and hand bags back in those days. Shame we can't go back :/

man oh man.... so many of these look sick, i really want KI2 on another platform... and fireteam rouge is just... WOW, i want to play that so badly, looks so good, maybe it wouldof been better suited for the 32x....
Definitely some really awesome looking games here, Paul. If you want to play Fireteam Rogue (and have an Everdrive), there's a link to the ROM in the description.
onaretrotip i only have everdrive for genesis. May just hafto make a snes version cartridge for it
Poison i dont own xbox 1, but i will buy one when theyre selling for 80 bucks JUST for KI
RETRO GAMING ARTS At least try it on an emulator first
duffman18 thats not as fun!
Christopher Columbus(Cristóbal Colón) was a spanish Explorer. He discovered América.
I know who he is LMAO.
Firstly, he didn’t “discover” America - there were people living there, and other Europeans had been there before him.
And secondly, although his voyages left from Spain he was not Spanish.
I would love some info on the promised but never seen green lantern game
Yes, some footage would be great. There's a bit of info here:

Strange that we haven't got any pictures or videos from snes ki2 anywhere on the internet, and pitty rare did not allow a release with analogue super nt like factor 5 did with super turrican. Analogue Super nt was a one chance.
Yes, very strange. It's plausible that I missed something, but I couldn't find anything at all of the SNES version.
I'm searching years now. There is nothing anywhere in internet. Only the title theme that the console version might had some similarity ua-cam.com/video/qTgmnLxmxQU/v-deo.html
Oh man. I still have a few Malibu comics that I bought with arcade tickets as a kid. Sure, I spent ten bucks in quarters to get a dollar some-odd comic, but at least I got to play Ski-ball and Dead or Alive. Damn, even an Image comics game? I would have gotten them.
Yeah, a shame. Probably too obscure when compared to the big name comics.
I'll always be bummed that the Snes version of Quik never made it out, it really seems like it was going to be a fun version of the game
Agreed, Nick. Looks like a really good platformer.
very intersting loved it i would like to play these unrelesd games
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! You can download some of the ROMs from the link in the video's description.
The biggest loss here for me is The Shadow as I have grown to quite like the movie. The game looked great. Dork and Imp I think was released by Piko. I guess they found more than the three levels you mentioned to work with?
I still haven't watched The Shadow!
@@onaretrotip It's not a bad movie if you like the gothic/pulp style comic book movies of the 90s. Quite underrated.
Jellyboy 2 level is very mario looking
Yeah, definitely some similarities there.
damn that sucks they were unreleased. some of them look pretty awesome
Reverend Guy Wallis Agreed! Some great looking games here.
i never actually knew they had this may unreleased game... i figured there were a few. i wonder how much money they lost developing them and then not releasing? with music, bands always can later release all their b-sides or unreleased stuff but ive never seen that with video games so i guess they just go to waste sadly
btw i subbed to your channel, check out mine and sub back if you feel like it :) cheers, man!
After watching this video, I'm more interested on the following unreleased games:
Prime,
The Shadow,
Fireteam Rouge
Yeah, they all look quite promising!
Firearm's graphics ain't digitised. That's just plain old pixel art, but slightly more "realistic" and less cartoony in style. Now, The Final Option is definitely using digitised sprites on the other hand--and they just look bad.
Haha had to watch that bit back to see if I actually said that. They clearly aren't! Whoops.
Why wasn't Psycho Dream mentioned? It was a planned SNES game that got cancelled soon after appearing at the CES back in the 90's.
Because it was released (on the Super Famicom)!
The shadow was like a superhero in the 1940’s. But the game I think was more based on 94 movie
Indeed.
word is,when marvel bought malubu, it was for their colouring studio rather than to release their comics.
Ah, interesting. Thanks, Keiron!
Steven Seagals Final Option reminds me of a shit Moonwalker lol. Loving your cancelled games videos. Long may they continue.
Hahaha yeah, his kicks remind me of the ones in Moonwalker. Glad you're enjoying the series, Keiran. I'll do them as long as I can.
Give me killer instinct 2!!! Firearm. Beastball. Prime. the shadow.Thunder Rabbit
🔥
9:00 Prime wasn't like Superman. He was like an alternate rip off of Shazam - Captain Marvel DC
Indeed!
Killer instinct 2 for the Super Nintendo what I've never heard that before where did you get that piece of information what I've never heard that before where did you get that piece of information?

Awesome video Pete! I ended up buying a copy of beastball for the Sega Genesis several years ago on Atari Age.
Thanks, Mark! Ah, nice. How does it play on Genesis?
It runs rather well on the Sega Genesis. I should fire it up sometime since I haven't played it in awhile.
Imagine if they released a combination of cancelled games for the current game consoles? I wish they would at least release them on steam.
Some of these games looked like they would've been fun.
Yeah that would be great. Licensing issues galore sadly.
Piko Interactive finds unreleased games and then releases them however their quality is debatable.
i remember wanting
FX fighter. & I'm still waiting for black tiger on nes.
Yeah, FX Fighter is another interesting one!
13:26 a genuine WTF moment in gaming right there.
Isn't it!
I like Mr. Tuff the best. My guess is maybe they thought it was too similar to Vectorman on the Genesis.
Yeah, looks great that one, Justin! I'd understand that if Vectorman came out on SNES, but as it didn't I doubt that's the case.
I just think they have similar stories since you're a construction robot fighting rouge military robots on a post apocalyptic Earth.
One thing that disappointed me about the PAL SNES at least was that it had the stellar first party titles but otherwise had less in its library and less variety compared to the Mega Drive, for the brief time I owned one it seemed to be all about what didn't make to these shores.
It's interesting to see what missed out on a release altogether, it seems that it's not all about what the publishers thought the audience would like (I'm not at all a bitter ex SNES owner! haha).
I'm surprised Spellcraft didn't get a release, especially as a western style RPG, it already looks a lot like The Immortal that made in on to the NES and Mega Drive. Aside from that it looks like we missed out on some potentially great titles, particularly Mr Tuff and Jelly Boy 2, although maybe not the Seagal monstrosity! haha
Totally agree, Owen. Mr. Tuff and Jelly Boy 2 look great, and I really like the look of The Shadow too. Haha the Seagal game is probably best left unreleased, but I will be downloading it to the Everdrive just for a laugh.
Very interesting games on this list. I'll be emulating some of these games. Killer Instinct on the SNES has very downgraded graphics when compared to the arcade machine but despite this the game is very playable. I rented Killer Instinct Gold for N64 back in the day. The Stevel Segal game looks funny.
Thanks! Same here; I'll definitely be putting some of these on my Everdrive. I was never a huge fan of Killer Instinct to be honest. The Steven Seagal game looks so bad, but I'll definitely be giving it a go (if only for comedy value).
Shadowhawk's Girlfriend "How the fuck did I get HIV?"
Shadowhawk "I was attacked! I better go get revenge, don't wait up for me!"
PMSL True story!
I think the term you're looking for in Firearm is Rotoscoping rather Digitization, tracing live action video frames like Flashback as opposed to converting video more directly like Mortal Kombat did.
Jelly Boy 2 seems like the biggest loss to gamers bitd. Mostly with platformers if you can swap the character for any character it isn't likely to beat the competition IE. "We got platforms, what more could you want?". ^_^
Congo looks clunky but interesting while Seagal's game looks plain crappy. I liked The Shadow movie despite poor box office and the game looks decent enough. Damn that Columbus game was probably alright, unique anyway.
Ah, thank you! Congo looks bloody awful, and the Steven Seagal game looks equally as bad. I will download it to try though as it looks hilarious. The Shadow is one of the best looking games here in my opinion, and a shame we don't have any footage of Christopher Columbus as I agree it could have been a decent little shooter.
Are you the IT guy from the British version of The Office?
Yes.
Some of them games looked cool as, it's a shame they got cancelled.
Yeah, there's a lot of shit, but of all the episodes this one had some of the best looking games. A shame indeed.
Just wanted to take this moment to say your channel, your content and your general opinions are MILES AHEAD of a lot of the jokes on UA-cam.
Thank you so much, that's very kind indeed.
The Shadow wasn't released? I had this game...
Whaaaaaat?
probably repro bootleg, i had a lot of japanese games that i bought that way
I remember renting it as well. Box and instructions booklet seemed legit...
Hmm...
Hernani Pawlick David it was released.
God it must really suck when you put all time and effort into a game and it gets cancelled, I imagine that must be a lot of work wasted.
agauerm Yeah, I bet that's soul-destroying.
Killer instinct 2 was not completed... Rare was just starting work on few animation...
Where did you hear that?
Firearm looked pretty dope IMO
Defo!
Another great video
Thanks, William!
