LOST Video Games Found
Every now and then a little gaming miracle happens; lost video games are found and preserved for all to enjoy. Today we take a look at several cases of lost games, why they were cancelled, and how they were found, including Star Fox 2 for the SNES, Atari’s Akka Arrh, Conquest, as well as Drac’s Night Out for Nintendo’s NES.

  1. Hot take: while I definitely don’t encourage people to impersonate someone to break into a house to steal something, I can’t find myself mad at the guy. The “collector” didn’t have one but TWO cabinets of the game? He had it for years and knew people wanted it dumped so they could play. The only reason I can see he did that was for the power trip of having cabinets ye would graciously let people play at events from time to time.

    The fact he had an OG cabinet is cool and novel as hell already. There really wasn’t any other reason to keep the game to himself like that.

  2. Not releasing Starfox 2 was just stupid. No one would have complained that it didn't look as good as 3D Playstation or Saturn games, they wouldn't expect it to, being a SNES game. Dumb decision, especially as there was a huge SNES install base by that time. It could have been the consoles last hurrah.

    Imagine Sony cancelling a much wanted sequel on PS2 in 2006 cause PS3 wasn't out yet but Xbox 360 was, and Sony thought people would compare it to Xbox 360 games and complain that it doesn't look as good. Just stupid.
