It's absolutely a western developed game; Japs have this weird ritual where absolutely no prior builds of games are kept, let alone source code. Only westerners continually make backups and archives of their games, it's why the vast majority of resurfaced prototypes are not developed by the Japanese. Had Socks the Cat, for example, been developed by a western developer, there wouldn't have been only one known functional prototype, there would've been dozens.

Could be that the developer was unable to find a publisher, or they did and they shut their doors or decided to stop publishing NES titles. Tons of promising C64 games were left unreleased that way. https://www.gamesthatwerent.com/gtw64/daffy-duck/

The NES version of California Raisins was cancelled because it would have come out in 1990 by which time the CR fad was pretty much over. Other games got axed by NOA for various reasons such as competing with something else. Final Fantasy II was planned for a North American release but NOA killed it because the planned release would have been in the second half of 1991 and they didn't want any AAA NES games coming out then to draw attention away from the SNES's launch.

Mr. Gimmick was obviously nuked because it would compete with Kirby's Adventure.

Funny that Frank is also the idiot who falsely claimed that Nintendo downloaded their ROMs from the internet, just because they use iNES headers. Later, other researchers online discovered that the iNES developer (who is Japanese) was hired by Nintendo around the turn of the century to work on internal emulation efforts, and is the reason why Nintendo was using iNES headers for their NES ROMs.

Being the respectable "historian" that he is, Frank chose to double down, then tried to claim he didn't actually say Nintendo downloaded their own ROMs, even though he structured an entire panel at a conference around the premise.

It's wrong to claim that kawasedo was the primary author/creator of iNES, but it is not incorrect to claim that he was a notable contributor who was involved with creating multiple pieces of it, including the header format.

Inb4 gg autism and muh sjw, but there is extensive research backed by tangible evidence in this thread: https://www.resetera.com/threads/tomohiro-kawase-mightve-been-hired-by-nintendo-to-put-rom-headers-into-vc-updated-dec-1-2018.64755/

Tl;Dr kawasedo works for Nintendo, used the iNES format for Nintendo internal projects. Nintendo is proven to have extensive archives through various releases of things that were believed to be lost or otherwise incomplete (starfox 2, sky skipper) and still having new old stock laying around in warehouses (the items they left to GCCX for the film, gifting an old lady a new Game Boy a few years back).

Pirate-fags won't be able to piss off legal-fags, so they're pissed.
Legal-fags are made because Nintendo won't C&D this, so they're pissed.
Amerimutts are going to be shown again that they were shit at making good games, so they're pissed.
Weebs are afraid that it could be a shit Jap game that makes them look bad, so they're pissed.
/vr/ considers anything that wasn't released to the public before Dec 1999 as a modern game, so they're pissed.

I could go on, but tl;dr /vr/ is just as mad as /v/ nowadays.

Most Nintenyearolds are demanding that Nintendo let them BUY the same fucking roms they've been making $10-a-pop off of for the last 15 years on the Switch. Plus, superduper "for the fans" professional repro-carts are starting to get real popular with money-burning hoarders, so it's fully likely that a retard company would think they'd make big bucks off of it.

No, but it's good fucking marketing. You tell some people "They rebuilt it from the actual source code!" and that magically makes it somehow different from "just a rom".

I used to, when the /vr/ Gauntlet was a thing. Found some real gems back then, not even necessary obscure but definitely shit I would have ignored if I didn't look it up.
I don't think the Gauntlet is right to bring back as a regular thread in /vr/'s current crotchety state but I definitely recommend anons use the roller to play some random games, whether in traditional gauntlet order or not.

Of course it was shit. These dumb fucking dumps are ALWAYS shit. If it wasn't shit it would have been actually released and have been popular. Video game "preservationists" think they are saving something nobody cared about in the first place.

Video gaming and the world in general gained nothing from this.

It is much, much better to have people carefully archiving things that are only of limited value than to have a situation like film and TV where entire blocks of their early history were just destroyed because people presumed they were worthless.

[Anonymous No.6485646]

>>6485629
>presumed they were worthless
But these are 100% of the time confirmed as worthless. History doesn't really benefit. A fat guy with an unfortunate beard benefits with extremely limited praise on reddit and twitter. No secrets were revealed here. No riddles answered. No missing links connected. It would have been more entertaining to more people if someone posted "found and compiled a never before seen NES game and I'm not releasing it". The world and video gaming history would have benefited the same.

It's hilariously shit. Why the hell are you changing your tires with a regular wrench? Why does filling your gas tank look like you are jerking off the can? Why does it let you qualify in first person view, but forces you to race in that godawful side-view? Why is everyone in the audience a clone of the drivers? Shit is funny as fuck to watch.
