Is there a list of unreleased games for the Genesis?

[IronBuddha]

I ask this because years ago I had the Sega Channel and it would sometimes have demos of upcoming games, well there was a game I cannot remember the name for the life of me but it was a strategy/war kind of game, I remember back then I couldn't wait for it to come out so I can buy it but it was the near of the end of the Genesis and was never released to buy. I know it's a long shot since I can't remember the name but I was hoping maybe if there was a list it might pop back into my head if I read the name of it.
Like I said it's a long shot, but any help would be awesome!

the one war game I can think of that didn't make it to the U.S. was Cannon Fodder but I don't know if it ever got a Sega Channel test run.

[Cloud121]

Mega Man: Wily Wars is probably the most famous one.

Though, wasn't Alien Soldier also on Sega Channel at one point?

[ALAKA]

was it turn based or in real time?

Indiana Jones greatest Adventures was ported by Factor 5 and reviewed in German magazines; however, it was never released.
Other never released games are Jelly Boy, Resq, Wacky Races, Sonic Eraser, Itchy & Scratchy, Ninja Gaiden.

WOW they wanted to do Lufia on Sega?? wow...

Which is why it's listed in the Rumor Mill.

Yeah, there's tons more stuff to add into the Genesis Rumor Mill list - it'll happen eventually, but the focus for the last year or so has been on updating the 8-bit sections in advance of the forthcoming Classic book...

I just checked that one out but it's not it.

No it's not on there but thanks for the list.

Though, wasn't Alien Soldier also on Sega Channel at one point?

Yes it was, I just checked it out and I remember playing this on the Sega Channel, but also it's not the game I'm looking for

was it turn based or in real time?

It was real time, I also remember the characters and other things like the tanks almost looked like the little lego guys, I also remember the demo only let you play the first 3 levels. I'm very positive that it wasn't released because I loved the game so much I wanted to buy it the very first day it came out, I would ask toy stores every week or so if there was a date and none of them ever even heard of it the entire time I asked. I wonder if maybe (another long shot) if there's some kind of record that shows what games were on the sega channel?

[Doonzmore]

Any idea if Wacky Races was going to be an actual racer or like the Nes platformer?

It is a Mario Kart-clone as it seems...

Wasnt Cannon Fodder canceled for the Genesis? If it was I wish it would have made it, becuase whenever I want to play that game, I have to get my Jaguar out of the box, then hook it up. It's a pain in the rear. I wish I had enough room to just have all my consoles hooked up at once so I wouldnt have to do that.

[7th lutz]

There is one not mentioned yet:

Pitfighter 2 by tengren

I saw a picture of in a Gameinformer issue that had Mortal Kombat on the cover in 1993. That issue had a listing of games and pictures from the 1993 Summer ces. I think it had to be started since game informer got a picture of the game in the megazine.

It was released in europe so just do as I did and import that version.

[j_factor]

It must have been extremely close to completion, as it was even advertised in American magazines. There was going to be some additional content or something, but I couldn't tell you what exactly it would've been. I have no idea why it was canned.

Cannon Fodder was released for European Mega Drive. It's not all that rare or anything, and IIRC, it works fine on NTSC systems. Although, I would think that the Jaguar version has better graphics or something.

To the original question, could it have been Last Survivor?

[IronBuddha]

I just looked into that and it's not it, Last Survivor looks like a RPG. This was a strategy war game. Also if it helps any it was kind of like Cannon Fodder with an above head view but closer, the characters were bigger.

Caliber 50?

[IronBuddha]

Caliber 50?

No that's not it but that's a pretty good game lol. The game also worked like General Chaos, you had a team of 4-5 soldiers against another team of 4-5 soldiers.

[S-Wind]

Do we know how much of X-Women was completed before it got canned?

There were a few pics of it in several magazines back then.

[IronBuddha]

Bump

Sorry it still bugs me to this day!

Like I said previously you could also get into tanks, and I'm almost positive the objective was to destroy the enemy's base before they destroy you. The game had a different look, like everything was blockish (still reminds me of legos).

Sorry to be a pest but man I'd love to play this game again!
