List of Blockbuster Only Releases?

[wingzrow]

So I recently bought both Clayfighter scuplter's cut and indiana jones and the infernal machine, and it got me thinking. Does anyone have a list of all the blockbuster only releases for each system?

[jonebone]

Indiana Jones is not a blockbuster only release, it was also available on the LucasArts website. Another similiar game is Transformers: Beast Wars, where it was mainly a BB exclusive but it also saw a very limited retail life (so there are two different box covers).

Don't know them all off hand, but Final Fight Guy on SNES and Flintstone 2 on NES both come to mind.

Flintstones 2 being rental only is hearsay until further evidence comes about.

Flintstones 2 might be an enigma. Over here in PR, it was available for rent at Pueblo Supermarket and Xtra Supermarket (both same owner). One would think that it was available to rent at other video stores because of this, however I recall hearing that Pueblo/Xtra Supermarket had an association with Blockbuster Video here in PR, so maybe that is why it was also available for rent over here.

I'm not 100% sure, though.

Wasn't the Madden Football Special Editions for the Sega Genesis from Blockbuster? I have one of those, and that's what I have heard.

Madden Championship Edition on Genesis was Rental first.
Final Fight Guy for SNES.
PSX Had Eggs of Steel and one other one.
N64 also had Beast Wars and Hercules that were rentals first.

Ren & Stimpy Fire Dogs, may not have been a BB exclusive but I'm fairly certain it was a rental exclusive....

[Steven]

I remember ClayFighter: Tournament Edition started out as a strict BB rental.

[exit]

It wasn't an exclusive, but I remember Blockbuster had a promotion where if you rented Zoop you could rent any other game free......or it might have been the other way around. I believe I rented Batman Forever, so luckily for me Zoop wasn't that bad of a game.

[ScourDX]

Final Fight Guy is another. I notice Sonic Adventure Limited Edition was Blockbuster release in Canada.

Not 100%....

Hagane: The Final Conflict

Its a shame too cause the game looks awsome!!!

N64 Indiana Jones was Blockbuster exclusive of sorts. At the time it was also available through the Lucasarts catalog/website, but nowhere other than that and Blockbuster. Razor Freestyle Scooter and NFL Blitz Special Edition were both Blockbuster only releases. I thought that there was an N64 Powerpuff Girls game was only available at Blockbuster but Google is not helping me confirm that.

[todesengel]

I saw the Powerpuff Girls N64 game a bunch at Toys R Us so I know it's not an exclusive.

PSX Had Eggs of Steel


I thought that there was an N64 Powerpuff Girls game was only available at Blockbuster

I worked at Electronics Boutique at the time and we carried both Eggs of Steel (PS) and The Powerpuff Girls: Chemical X-traction (N64).

Streetstyle Street Soccer
Outlaw Golf Holiday Golf
Outlaw Golf: 9 Holes of X-Mas
Outlaw Golf: 9 More Holes of X-Mas
Outlaw Volleyball: Red Hot

These were not all BB Exclusives. They were available in numerous places, most notably TRU and Fry's Electronics. TRU got Outlaw Golf: 9 Holes of Xmas (which is the same game as Holiday Golf)

Some Clarification

Eggs of Steel and Kartia: Worlds of Fate were timed Blockbuster Exclusives.

Eggs of Steel actually has a Blockbuster Exclusive burst on it, while Kartia has a 'slightly' different cover than the standard release. I don't remember off the top of my head which is the BB exclusive, but one cover has Kartia (the name) in a whispy white color, while the other is in a silver foil

I'm sorry, I felt the need to bumb this thread.

NFL Blitz Special Edition on Nintendo 64 was Blockbuster Exclusive.

[SparTonberry]

Was ClayFighter: Tournament Edition released separately?
I remember Blockbuster's game tournament was the very reason that version of the game was made.
