Two Previously Unreleased Games For The NES Are Currently Being Auctioned Off On Ebay
It’s about two titles that were never released for Nintendo’s first-born console NES (or Nintendo Entertainment System) which are currently being auctioned off on Ebay.
The first game is Battlegrounds of Napoleon, a strategy game that was ready for release but for various reasons never saw the light of day back in the day. According to the ad, the files that would have been sent to Nintendo for printing are also included, which means that it will most likely be possible to recreate it digitally.
Game number two is developed by Rare but it doesn’t seem to be a full version, but a demo that was compatible with the Power Glove. The Power Glove controller flopped big and only one game was developed for it and it is speculated that Rare’s demo compatible with the controller was a prototype that Rare would show off to attract interest in developing a full game with the controller.
One who would very much like to get his hands on both of these titles is Frank Cifaldi of the Video Game History Foundation who is now trying to raise money to purchase both of these. Hans now worries above all that they will end up in the hands of other collectors then risk decaying beyond saving.
