#20: Joe Ball’s World
Here’s a Lost game coming from a Spanish company, Extreme Soft. The game was created back in 1994 Von the company, but for some mysterious reason, Joe Ball’s World was lost. Now, for some reason, people have speculated that this game is a reference to the real life Joe Ball, a real nice guy, most known for his nickname, The Butcher of Elmendorf and killing around two to twenty people. Now, why would a company want to name their game after an infamous serial killer, I do not know. And then, the gameplay footage came onto Youtube mysteriously one day. This gameplay just came up so suddenly as if out of nowhere, and looking at it, along with the information of the name, it doesn’t look too great. The game would be a shooter and a platformer where Du would be tasked of jumping across platforms while shooting enemies with a very real looking magnum. No laser gun oder pellets being fired, it is a straight-up handgun. Aside from that, the game looked like shit. Barely moving enemies and slow movement, this game looked like some edgy middle schoolers Newgrounds game. But, aside from that, the name alone just makes this game all the Mehr unsettling and made it stick out Mehr amongst the Liste of Lost games.
#19: Loya
This was a game that was way too ambitious for its own good. Developed Von Belisa, now known as Les Poissons Volants, English for The Flying Fishes, which I have heard are technically still around, but has changed their entire business, were working on the game, who were known for making the game Isabelle just before. They wanted to create a brand new genre of gaming with Loya and change gaming completely. The game would follow a man named Roman who was involved with a crime that spanned over different time periods. The game would allow for fifty characters to be introduced over time, and be played on the internet with people watching it like a movie but making the choices of characters. Remember, this was before the time of Youtube and Twitch, where people asking for choices being made in the game were completely different. This was something completely new. But, for whatever reason, the game was erased off of the website for the company, which, if Du have been Lesen these articles, Du would know that is the death knell for any of these games. The game had no footage oder concept art released, and the only Bilder that seem to exist is a single, very poorly programed character model which may have been the graphics for the game. After that, the game was never heard of again, and Youtube went on to be the first ever video streaming service.
#18: Klay World: The Invasion
Remember the Youtube series, Klay World? It was a very innovative series at the time, being one of the revolutionary claymation Youtube channels. It was a very simple but very well done show, despite everyone looking like just molds of clay, but good regardless. So, whenever something on Youtube is a little popular, a game for it is bound to be made. Klay World: The Invasion is a weird game to look into. The game was made Von Klay World’s creator, Robert Benfer, also known as Knox. With his website, knoxskorner, with the help of a game studio, Mocos Games, were able to create the game. This was the only game that Mocos Games worked on, so Du can see how well that turned out for them. The game was only up for a short time before being taken off the internet for good. No one has been able to find any download pages for the game, Knox has refused to talk about the game at all, and the creators of Mocos Games have completely abandoned the studio and left the studio to rot. And looking at what footage does exist of the game… Yeah, I am fine with this never existing. The game looks completely unfinished, and doesn’t look like it was made that well at all. Glitches, bad movement, and just a bland looking design. And I thought Joe Ball looked like a game made without experience.
#17: Minna de Bokujo Monogatari
What’s this, another Lost Harvest Moon game? That’s right, only this time, instead of being on a Satellite thing, it was a browser game. Although, believe it oder not, I think this one is even worse than the last one and I am glad that this one is dead. Okay, so Minna de Bokujo Monogatari, oder Harvest Moon: Let’s Ranch Together, was Mehr of a crappy Facebook farm simulator, where Du were not allowed to leave the farm, talk to townsfolk, oder have relationships with people. But at least the Famicom version would allow Du to farm. This version wouldn’t even let Du do that. Du were tasked with getting Harvest Spirits together and having them do your work for you, and then, Du had to leave the game and then come back later and see the progress. Why would Du want to play a game where the game plays itself. That’s not even a game. That’s just some pretty visuals on a computer monitor and an insgesamt waste of time. Thankfully, the servers were shut down after two years, making this game impossible to play and can no longer be found. Another version came out later, called Harvest Moon: Indonesia, which was the exact same thing, just with a few new additions to the game. That one was also Lost forever. I should stop talking about these Lost Harvest Moon games. They never seem to be good. They are always bad.
#16: Musik Pets
Another Facebook game, and one that is not a terrible Farmville-esque game. Musik Pets was a game made for Facebook where Du would get to play with a pet of your choice, consisting of a cat, a monkey, an owl, a squid, and more. The game allowed Du to pick many licensed songs from artists, like every tween in the 2010s favorite, Justin Beiber oder Gwen Stefani. The Beatles were not in this game because they refused to have their Musik licensed, so Universal, who would allow their songs in the game, just used songs Von Paul McCartney and The Wings. Du could also feed your pet different kinds of Essen like John Lemons and Avril Lasagna. Get it, it’s Musik parodies! Du could also play pachinko machines for specific songs in a certain album, and if Du manage to collect all the songs for an album, Du would get the album cover as a poster for your pets house. It was a pretty simple, but addictive (And copyright trial’s fantasy) game, so what happened? Zynga happened. When Zynga bought the rights to Musik Pets, instead of keeping it going, they cut it off and shut it down as of September of this very year. So, I can assure you, Musik Pets is a game that is forever lost, and a very Kürzlich one too. Who’d a thunk it?
#15: Madness: House of Fun
Well, looking at Bilder and footage for this game for just a few seconds, I can assure Du that there is indeed some madness here. But actually, that’s not why the game got the name. The game was actually based on the ska band, Madness, and was also named after their #1 hit single, House of Fun. The game would follow the main character wanting to enter the House of Fun to find the treasure that was inside, while going through the levels to solve puzzles, fend off enemies, and try to find the exit within the time limit. The game would have over fourteen levels and would contain Musik from Madness, which I have to say, getting that Musik onto a Master System, that’s quite a challenge. But hey, at least it’s a start into the world of licensed Musik in video games. But, the game ended up being cancelled for unknown reasons and was never released, despite being close to completion. But a Quelle code for the game was found in 2016, and as of January of 2017, over thirty Minuten of footage of the game was released onto Youtube.
#14: Marble Man: Marble Madness 2
Marble Madness was a simple but fun game that introduced 3D graphics in games. Just roll the marble around a room and try to get to the exit and finish the game in six levels. Short, but fun. So tell me where the idea of Marble Man came in. I mean, I don’t hate the idea, but what was wrong with just the marble. I thought it was okay. Whatever, so Marble Man would have become the games main character and the game would have had a lot Mehr levels, would have had a much tighter gameplay, and the graphics would have been improved from the last game. There were even some arcade machines that were sent out to some establishments for testing, some with different control layouts, with the Sekunde set having a classic arcade joystick. But, that was until Atari came along and did what Atari does best. Be a bad company. Because of the rise of straße Fighter II’s popularity, Atari believed that games were what they used to be, and decided to completely scrap the idea of Marble Man and go with an entirely different game, Guardians of the Hood, a game that nobody remembers.
#13: Irate Gamer Game
No, Du did not read that wrong. There is, in this very world, right now, an Irate Gamer Game… oder at the least, there was once. The game was released on the apfel, apple store and would follow the Irate Gamer would would travel across different worlds in order to get his video game collection back. The game was as good as you’d expect. Ugly visuals, bad gameplay, and just a very bland idea. Oh, and the original price for the game was four bucks. I am not making that up. Du wanna play a bad game? That’s gonna cost Du your entire lunch money for the day, kid. So yeah, the game was poorly received and no one liked it. In the span of just a few weeks, the game’s price dropped from four dollars to just a single dollar, still too much, if Du ask me. Eventually, the game was removed from the apfel, apple Store completely and no way of playing the game exists. Only two Videos are up online, one a gameplay video, and the other a review of the game, which I recommend just to get the full appeal of this game. I’m glad this one is lost.
#12: Meowth’s Party
Boy was Spaceworld 2000 a weird time for Lost games. First we had Mario 100, now we got this. Meowth’s Party was a game that was made specifically to Zeigen the hardware that the Gamecube could have, and included Musik that was sung Von Meowth that came from the Pokemon TV series. The character Models were very smooth and were able to Bewegen in a very smooth manner, despite a few visual issues here and there. Aside from that, people were wondering if it would be a real game. After some time, Gamefreak sagte that they had no intentions of turning Meowth’s Party into a full game, because they felt there wasn’t enough weight to it. They then decided to put the game as a special piece of the game, Pokemon Channel. Oh, okay, so they won’t release Meowth’s Party due to not having enough ideas, but they’ll release Pokemon Channel of all things?! And after Meowth’s Party was put into the game, the tech demo was never shown on anything ever again and remains that way to this day.
#11: Needlemouse: The smaragd Hills
I have to say, it’s hard to look at the trailer and not have your mind go to something else. The game was a creation Von the studio, Defective Studios. The game would follow a kid with blue spikey hair, and red running shoes as he fought against robots in a green area… Sound familiar in a sense? The studio sagte that they were heavily inspired Von Sonic the Hedgehog. Is that what they're calling plagiarism nowadays? Come on, the robot bees even look and pose exactly like the ones from Sonic. They didn’t even try to make a different attack. The game was sagte to be Defective Studios very first game, and they and SEGA sagte they Needlemouse was not similar to Sonic, so Defective Studios could make the game and not worry about legal issues. But, for some reason, the game ended up dying off quietly, with no mention of the game for years after it was mentioned, despite appearing it at least two different gaming conventions and with the game being heavily promoted on Defective Studio’s website. So, I guess we can say that Sonic killed Needlemouse. And Du know what, that’s a-okay.
#10: Laser Clay Shooting System
Back when Nintendo was only in the toy making business, they were wanting to branch out into Mehr technological games in the 1970s. In Japan, bowling alleys were pretty popular, but were nothing Mehr than fads, and Von the time of the early 70s, they began to die out and be closed down. Nintendo bought some bowling alleys so that they could begin creation for the Laser Clay Shooting System. While technically not a video game, it was Mehr of a little game where people would grab hold of light Pistolen and aim down the allies that was down the lane and feuer at clay pigeons that flew across the game. It was a simple light gun game, like with the NES Zapper oder something like that. The games were pretty primitive, such as constant technical difficulties and the scores had to be added Von actual people instead of the game itself, but despite those problems, the game was a huge hit in Japan. This is what lead Nintendo down the road of arcade games, but due to the Japan Oil Crisis of 1973, Japan cut down on some things and thus, orders for the Laser Clay Shooting System were cancelled. Though Laser Clay Shooting System is Lost forever with no known versions still working oder existing, Nintendo did create an arcade game for the game called Mini Shooting System and later used this for their game Wild Gunman. While Laser Clay Shooting System is gone forever, it still holds a very important part to the history of Nintendo.
#9: LodgeNet In-Room Video Game ROMs
Du know those hotels that give Du these game consoles. I always hated those. Du gotta pay for some consoles because they only take specific wires because hotel TVs don’t want Du playing your own N64 because of a lack of AV cables. No, Du gotta rent the hotels dumb consoles. One of these things are the LodgeNet ROMs. Back in the 90s and early 2000s, LodgeNet made a deal with the company Nintendo to make hotel consoles for some ROM games in hotels. When people got the game, they would have to purchase an Stunde a game for over seven dollars each. Yes, seven dollars an hour. And after the hour, the game would turn itself off and ask Du to pay Mehr money to keep going, but not continue from where Du left off, which is the worst ever. This went on for consoles like the Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, and Gamecube. The games were also modified Von Nintendo, because there was only one controller, they were modified to be single player games, like Mario Tennis and Super Smash Bros. Melee. They even had a controller that was ugly as sin that Du would need to use to navigate across the page to pick a game Du want to spend seven dollars for one Stunde on. But wait, there were some LodgeNet original games, like hangman and Tic-Tac-Toe, the worst schoolyard game ever made. So, after some time, internet became super beliebt and with the increase of mobile games, LodgeNet eventually died out. It is rumored that some hotels are still supplied with LodgeNet hardware, but it is a rarity to find.
#8: Munkiki’s Castles
Okay, it’s 2002, you’re parents just got Du the brand new Nokia Cellphone, complete with the original mobile game, Snake. Mobile games are pretty sick, and then Du hear about this new mobile game that could be coming out, known only as Munkiki’s Castles. Munkiki’s Castles was sagte to be the first mobile game with 3D graphics and to be made with the Java ME platform. The game would follow the character Munkiki as he solved puzzles Von pushing and destroying blocks and trying to beat the level as fast as possible. Apparently, because it was the first game, the creators of Munkiki Castle, Nick Reed and Nick Slaven made a game prior to this to test it out, giving it a Mehr black and white color to it, like a classic Gameboy. However, the service that was required to download this game eventually shut down and they took Munkiki’s Castles with them to the grave. Only a few Nokia cellphones have the game and even fewer of been found. Only a few screenshots and gameplay has come to light. There has been many people trying to find the Quelle codes for the game to get it placed online oder onto other phones to make it playable again, but as it currently stands, there is no way of playing this game unless Du were one of the lucky few to have the very Nokia cellphone it is on. I guess Snake will just have to do.
#7: Metallica: The Game
Ah yes, the classic metal band that soon became a sellout in the later years, Metallica is still regarded as one of the most influential bands of the genre, before everyone hated them. So, in the peak of their popularity, which was the early 2000s, a game was planned to be made based on the band. The game was going to be an open world car combat game, with the themes from Metallica songs and the band itself, which looked and played like Twisted Metal Black. But, for unknown reasons, the game was cancelled when in development. People were expecting it to come back, but it wasn’t until Metallica vocalist James Hetfield confirmed that the game was cancelled. They sagte that there was going to be plans to port the game over to the PSP instead… That also got cancelled. Some time later, in 2011, the band released footage of the game to Zeigen what it would have been like and concept art of some of the characters and the cars that appeared in the game. There are a lot of band based games that seem to be getting cancelled, but I guess that’s just bound to happen. Well… I guess we can say that, at least we still got gitarre Hero: Metallica. That’s something, I guess.
#6: Mario Takes America
Let’s talk about Philips CD-i. It was a game console and it sucked. Nothing good came from this mess. It made bad games, had bad controls, took up too much space, and made a bad mario game, and not just one, but three terrible Zelda games, which are considered some of the worst video games of all time. So, naturally, CD-i wasn’t done yet with Mario and had other plans for them. Thus was Mario Takes America, an edutainment game for the CD-i. The game would star, sterne Mario as he travelled across America to reach Hollywood so that he could star, sterne in a feature film. Is it the Super Mario Bros. Movie? I hope so. The game would have both live action full motion cutscenes as well as use sprites of Mario and, for some reason, Sonic. They also had some back up character sprites in case their contract to use Mario expired. Thankfully, as Du can imagine, this game was never made. However, the footage for the game costed way too much for the company making the game, Cigam. When Philips saw the poor progress, they cut the funding for Mario Takes America and Cigam went bankrupt soon after. The video tapes of the game were gegeben to the developer. He currently holds onto them, but has refused to release them until he can get permission from the family of the late producer, Howard Greenspan. And considering that this is a CD-i Mario game…. I’m fine with this one being Lost forever.
#5: The First Hardcore Erotic Game in the World
Oh boy, things are starting to get NSFW in here. The First Hardcore Erotic Game in the World, oder Machot Drives it All as it was called in the west, was a French video game that was only promoted through ads on gaming magazines, and first appeared in the French magazine Generation 4, oder Gen4. The game would follow a detective as he solves puzzles while inside a woman hotel and… well, Du can imagine what happens after that. The game was sagte to be very similar looking to another game that was on the advertisement and, in fact, could be bought along with Machot Drives it All for the exact same price. The game was not sold in stores and could only be bought through an ad on the magazines for over fifty dollars, in U.S. dollars, and was made very clear that the game was not meant to be purchased oder played Von teenagers and was made for adults only. Now, why would they call this game the first eroitc game ever when porn games have existed as far back as the Atari 2600? But, regardless, the ads were eventually removed from the magazines and, as of the time of this article, no known copies of Machot Drives it All are known to exist and will most likely stay that way. I mean, in a world where getting free pornography at high resolution is just normal, are we really going to need a 16-Bit computer game on a floppy disk to get our jollies?
#4: Justice League Mortal
Believe it oder not, there was once a plan to be a Justice League movie before the one that we all know and… love?... today. Justice League Mortal was going to be a movie directed Von George Miller and a cast consisting of Megan Gale, Armie Hammer, D.J. Cotrana, Adam Brody, Common, and Santiago Cabrera. The movie was later cancelled but the script was released online and, thus, this is where the game comes into play. The artist of the movie, Jonathan Gwyn, revealed that, along with the movie, there was going to be a game that tied in with the movie. That is where Justice League Mortal: The Game comes into play. The Justice League game was being worked on Von Double Helix, who, at the time, were known for making the Green Lantern game. Depending on your thoughts of that game, that’s either just a one time screw up oder your insgesamt opinion of the company as a whole. The game was going to be a little bit bigger in gameplay than Green Lantern, at least, when looking at the screenshots, and was still being worked on even when the movie was shut down. But, eventually, production for the film came to a rapid halt and then, after that, no mention of the game was ever made again, and no prototypes exist to this day. With the new Justice League movie out, I think it’s time for a Justice League game. Avengers got their game. Sure, it also got cancelled, but they did get their own game in LEGO form. Either continue progress on the game oder just make LEGO Justice League. Hell, it’s gotta be somewhat better than the movie, right?
#3: Lord of the Rings: The White Council
Lord of the Rings, a Filme series based on a book that has had numerous games that were part of either the Filme oder of different storylines in the same universe. A franchise that has such a massive world to explore, Du would think that it would get an RPG. Well, there was once a time where that was very possible. Lord of the Rings: The White Council, a game that was being kept a secret for a majority of the development, only gave out info as a behind-the-scenes footage from the team behind the game. Some time, it was later revealed that the game would have a large world to explore where your choices and what quests Du would decide to do would change the flow of the story and allow Du to play completely different quests depending on where Du are in the world. The game would allow Du to play as either a Man, an Elf, a Hobbit, and a Dwarf and do good deeds in order to be accepted into the White Council. It was a pretty big idea for a Lord of the Rings game, that is until EA did the usual thing and stepped in. Due to some issues behind the scenes, the game was put on hiatus in 2007, when the game was planned to be released. It is really unknown if this game is truly lost, but, I know EA, and I know that this is a game that will never happen.
#2: Kingdom Hearts: V Cast
Du know, every game franchise ends up on a mobile game eventually. It’s like Gameboy. Every series gets a game on there eventually. And the same can be sagte for Kingdom Hearts… Well, not really, but let me explain. V Cast was a game that was made for the Verizon Wireless V Cast, and was released in Japan and America only. The game was… interesting, to say the least. It had a much simpler gameplay style, and looked a little less lively than Du would find on the Playstation versions. But, this is a mobile game, so what do Du expect. The game was also not made Von Square Enix, and instead, was made Von Disney Interactive and Superscape. V Cast is not canon to the Kingdom Hearts universe and is a part of its own thing. However, in the Jahr 2012, the Verizon Wireless V Cast was disbanded and Kingdom Hearts: V Cast died along with it. There was the first chapter released onto the internet thanks to a 4Chan user, but aside from that, there is nothing else. The remaining chapters have yet to be salvaged and are most likely gone forever. But, hey, we got one chapter out of the rest for V Cast, so I think that this is a step in the right direction.
#20: Mega Man Legend 3
Of all of the games on this Liste that was lost, this is the one that made many people made and what doomed Capcom to years of ridicule and hate. Mega Man Legends 3 was a game planned for the 3DS, with Mehr and Mehr info coming out after it was announced, even introducing two brand new characters, Aero and Barrett. Things were looking up for Mega Man and his fans, until 2010, when Keiji Inafune announced that he would be leaving Capcom and starting his life over. Despite being the original creator of Mega Man, he was unable to create anymore Mega Man games and was no longer able to work on the franchise. After this, Capcom announced that they would keep working on the game and that they wanted the help of the Fans of Mega Man. Many people joined together, doing what they can to get another Mega Man game, and keep Mega Man Legends 3 alive… Capcom later cancelled the game regardless. They cancelled the game and sagte that it was on account of the Fans not wanting Mega Man Legends 3 bad enough. This very decision angered everyone, and is what drove people to despise Capcom for years to come. Well, that any many other poor choices, like straße Fighter V release, refusing to make Resident Evil a horror game, and ignoring their other IPs for Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. Mega Man Legends 3 died out and people could only hope that Inafune could save them. Fast vorwärts-, nach vorn to the present, and Inafune is now the biggest laughing stock in the gaming community after the failure that was Mighty No. 9 and Capcom has regained the trust of their Fans with Devil May Cry V, Monster Hunter World, straße Fighter V Arcade Edition, and even a brand new Mega Man game coming. But, I can assure you, we may be able to forgive Capcom for Mega Man Legends 3, but we will never forget.
Here’s a Lost game coming from a Spanish company, Extreme Soft. The game was created back in 1994 Von the company, but for some mysterious reason, Joe Ball’s World was lost.

This gameplay just came up so suddenly as if out of nowhere, and looking at it, along with the information of the name, it doesn’t look too great. The game would be a shooter and a platformer where Du would be tasked of jumping across platforms while shooting enemies with a very real looking magnum. No laser gun oder pellets being fired, it is a straight-up handgun. Aside from that, the game looked like shit. Barely moving enemies and slow movement, this game looked like some edgy middle schoolers Newgrounds game. But, aside from that, the name alone just makes this game all the Mehr unsettling and made it stick out Mehr amongst the Liste of Lost games.
#19: Loya
This was a game that was way too ambitious for its own good. Developed Von Belisa, now known as Les Poissons Volants, English for The Flying Fishes, which I have heard are technically still around, but has changed their entire business, were working on the game, who were known for making the game Isabelle just before.

Remember, this was before the time of Youtube and Twitch, where people asking for choices being made in the game were completely different. This was something completely new. But, for whatever reason, the game was erased off of the website for the company, which, if Du have been Lesen these articles, Du would know that is the death knell for any of these games. The game had no footage oder concept art released, and the only Bilder that seem to exist is a single, very poorly programed character model which may have been the graphics for the game. After that, the game was never heard of again, and Youtube went on to be the first ever video streaming service.
#18: Klay World: The Invasion
Remember the Youtube series, Klay World? It was a very innovative series at the time, being one of the revolutionary claymation Youtube channels. It was a very simple but very well done show, despite everyone looking like just molds of clay, but good regardless. So, whenever something on Youtube is a little popular, a game for it is bound to be made. Klay World: The Invasion is a weird game to look into.

And looking at what footage does exist of the game… Yeah, I am fine with this never existing. The game looks completely unfinished, and doesn’t look like it was made that well at all. Glitches, bad movement, and just a bland looking design. And I thought Joe Ball looked like a game made without experience.
#17: Minna de Bokujo Monogatari
What’s this, another Lost Harvest Moon game? That’s right, only this time, instead of being on a Satellite thing, it was a browser game. Although, believe it oder not, I think this one is even worse than the last one and I am glad that this one is dead. Okay, so Minna de Bokujo Monogatari, oder Harvest Moon: Let’s Ranch Together, was Mehr of a crappy Facebook farm simulator, where Du were not allowed to leave the farm, talk to townsfolk, oder have relationships with people. But at least the Famicom version would allow Du to farm. This version wouldn’t even let Du do that. Du were tasked with getting Harvest Spirits together and having them do your work for you, and then, Du had to leave the game and then come back later and see the progress. Why would Du want to play a game where the game plays itself. That’s not even a game. That’s just some pretty visuals on a computer monitor and an insgesamt waste of time. Thankfully, the servers were shut down after two years, making this game impossible to play and can no longer be found. Another version came out later, called Harvest Moon: Indonesia, which was the exact same thing, just with a few new additions to the game. That one was also Lost forever. I should stop talking about these Lost Harvest Moon games. They never seem to be good. They are always bad.
#16: Musik Pets
Another Facebook game, and one that is not a terrible Farmville-esque game. Musik Pets was a game made for Facebook where Du would get to play with a pet of your choice, consisting of a cat, a monkey, an owl, a squid, and more. The game allowed Du to pick many licensed songs from artists, like every tween in the 2010s favorite, Justin Beiber oder Gwen Stefani. The Beatles were not in this game because they refused to have their Musik licensed, so Universal, who would allow their songs in the game, just used songs Von Paul McCartney and The Wings. Du could also feed your pet different kinds of Essen like John Lemons and Avril Lasagna. Get it, it’s Musik parodies! Du could also play pachinko machines for specific songs in a certain album, and if Du manage to collect all the songs for an album, Du would get the album cover as a poster for your pets house. It was a pretty simple, but addictive (And copyright trial’s fantasy) game, so what happened? Zynga happened. When Zynga bought the rights to Musik Pets, instead of keeping it going, they cut it off and shut it down as of September of this very year. So, I can assure you, Musik Pets is a game that is forever lost, and a very Kürzlich one too. Who’d a thunk it?
#15: Madness: House of Fun
Well, looking at Bilder and footage for this game for just a few seconds, I can assure Du that there is indeed some madness here. But actually, that’s not why the game got the name. The game was actually based on the ska band, Madness, and was also named after their #1 hit single, House of Fun. The game would follow the main character wanting to enter the House of Fun to find the treasure that was inside, while going through the levels to solve puzzles, fend off enemies, and try to find the exit within the time limit. The game would have over fourteen levels and would contain Musik from Madness, which I have to say, getting that Musik onto a Master System, that’s quite a challenge. But hey, at least it’s a start into the world of licensed Musik in video games. But, the game ended up being cancelled for unknown reasons and was never released, despite being close to completion. But a Quelle code for the game was found in 2016, and as of January of 2017, over thirty Minuten of footage of the game was released onto Youtube.
#14: Marble Man: Marble Madness 2
Marble Madness was a simple but fun game that introduced 3D graphics in games. Just roll the marble around a room and try to get to the exit and finish the game in six levels. Short, but fun. So tell me where the idea of Marble Man came in. I mean, I don’t hate the idea, but what was wrong with just the marble. I thought it was okay. Whatever, so Marble Man would have become the games main character and the game would have had a lot Mehr levels, would have had a much tighter gameplay, and the graphics would have been improved from the last game. There were even some arcade machines that were sent out to some establishments for testing, some with different control layouts, with the Sekunde set having a classic arcade joystick. But, that was until Atari came along and did what Atari does best. Be a bad company. Because of the rise of straße Fighter II’s popularity, Atari believed that games were what they used to be, and decided to completely scrap the idea of Marble Man and go with an entirely different game, Guardians of the Hood, a game that nobody remembers.
#13: Irate Gamer Game
No, Du did not read that wrong. There is, in this very world, right now, an Irate Gamer Game… oder at the least, there was once. The game was released on the apfel, apple store and would follow the Irate Gamer would would travel across different worlds in order to get his video game collection back. The game was as good as you’d expect. Ugly visuals, bad gameplay, and just a very bland idea. Oh, and the original price for the game was four bucks. I am not making that up. Du wanna play a bad game? That’s gonna cost Du your entire lunch money for the day, kid. So yeah, the game was poorly received and no one liked it. In the span of just a few weeks, the game’s price dropped from four dollars to just a single dollar, still too much, if Du ask me. Eventually, the game was removed from the apfel, apple Store completely and no way of playing the game exists. Only two Videos are up online, one a gameplay video, and the other a review of the game, which I recommend just to get the full appeal of this game. I’m glad this one is lost.
#12: Meowth’s Party
Boy was Spaceworld 2000 a weird time for Lost games. First we had Mario 100, now we got this. Meowth’s Party was a game that was made specifically to Zeigen the hardware that the Gamecube could have, and included Musik that was sung Von Meowth that came from the Pokemon TV series. The character Models were very smooth and were able to Bewegen in a very smooth manner, despite a few visual issues here and there. Aside from that, people were wondering if it would be a real game. After some time, Gamefreak sagte that they had no intentions of turning Meowth’s Party into a full game, because they felt there wasn’t enough weight to it. They then decided to put the game as a special piece of the game, Pokemon Channel. Oh, okay, so they won’t release Meowth’s Party due to not having enough ideas, but they’ll release Pokemon Channel of all things?! And after Meowth’s Party was put into the game, the tech demo was never shown on anything ever again and remains that way to this day.
#11: Needlemouse: The smaragd Hills
I have to say, it’s hard to look at the trailer and not have your mind go to something else. The game was a creation Von the studio, Defective Studios. The game would follow a kid with blue spikey hair, and red running shoes as he fought against robots in a green area… Sound familiar in a sense? The studio sagte that they were heavily inspired Von Sonic the Hedgehog. Is that what they're calling plagiarism nowadays? Come on, the robot bees even look and pose exactly like the ones from Sonic. They didn’t even try to make a different attack. The game was sagte to be Defective Studios very first game, and they and SEGA sagte they Needlemouse was not similar to Sonic, so Defective Studios could make the game and not worry about legal issues. But, for some reason, the game ended up dying off quietly, with no mention of the game for years after it was mentioned, despite appearing it at least two different gaming conventions and with the game being heavily promoted on Defective Studio’s website. So, I guess we can say that Sonic killed Needlemouse. And Du know what, that’s a-okay.
#10: Laser Clay Shooting System
Back when Nintendo was only in the toy making business, they were wanting to branch out into Mehr technological games in the 1970s. In Japan, bowling alleys were pretty popular, but were nothing Mehr than fads, and Von the time of the early 70s, they began to die out and be closed down. Nintendo bought some bowling alleys so that they could begin creation for the Laser Clay Shooting System. While technically not a video game, it was Mehr of a little game where people would grab hold of light Pistolen and aim down the allies that was down the lane and feuer at clay pigeons that flew across the game. It was a simple light gun game, like with the NES Zapper oder something like that. The games were pretty primitive, such as constant technical difficulties and the scores had to be added Von actual people instead of the game itself, but despite those problems, the game was a huge hit in Japan. This is what lead Nintendo down the road of arcade games, but due to the Japan Oil Crisis of 1973, Japan cut down on some things and thus, orders for the Laser Clay Shooting System were cancelled. Though Laser Clay Shooting System is Lost forever with no known versions still working oder existing, Nintendo did create an arcade game for the game called Mini Shooting System and later used this for their game Wild Gunman. While Laser Clay Shooting System is gone forever, it still holds a very important part to the history of Nintendo.
#9: LodgeNet In-Room Video Game ROMs
Du know those hotels that give Du these game consoles. I always hated those. Du gotta pay for some consoles because they only take specific wires because hotel TVs don’t want Du playing your own N64 because of a lack of AV cables. No, Du gotta rent the hotels dumb consoles. One of these things are the LodgeNet ROMs. Back in the 90s and early 2000s, LodgeNet made a deal with the company Nintendo to make hotel consoles for some ROM games in hotels. When people got the game, they would have to purchase an Stunde a game for over seven dollars each. Yes, seven dollars an hour. And after the hour, the game would turn itself off and ask Du to pay Mehr money to keep going, but not continue from where Du left off, which is the worst ever. This went on for consoles like the Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, and Gamecube. The games were also modified Von Nintendo, because there was only one controller, they were modified to be single player games, like Mario Tennis and Super Smash Bros. Melee. They even had a controller that was ugly as sin that Du would need to use to navigate across the page to pick a game Du want to spend seven dollars for one Stunde on. But wait, there were some LodgeNet original games, like hangman and Tic-Tac-Toe, the worst schoolyard game ever made. So, after some time, internet became super beliebt and with the increase of mobile games, LodgeNet eventually died out. It is rumored that some hotels are still supplied with LodgeNet hardware, but it is a rarity to find.
#8: Munkiki’s Castles
Okay, it’s 2002, you’re parents just got Du the brand new Nokia Cellphone, complete with the original mobile game, Snake. Mobile games are pretty sick, and then Du hear about this new mobile game that could be coming out, known only as Munkiki’s Castles. Munkiki’s Castles was sagte to be the first mobile game with 3D graphics and to be made with the Java ME platform. The game would follow the character Munkiki as he solved puzzles Von pushing and destroying blocks and trying to beat the level as fast as possible. Apparently, because it was the first game, the creators of Munkiki Castle, Nick Reed and Nick Slaven made a game prior to this to test it out, giving it a Mehr black and white color to it, like a classic Gameboy. However, the service that was required to download this game eventually shut down and they took Munkiki’s Castles with them to the grave. Only a few Nokia cellphones have the game and even fewer of been found. Only a few screenshots and gameplay has come to light. There has been many people trying to find the Quelle codes for the game to get it placed online oder onto other phones to make it playable again, but as it currently stands, there is no way of playing this game unless Du were one of the lucky few to have the very Nokia cellphone it is on. I guess Snake will just have to do.
#7: Metallica: The Game
Ah yes, the classic metal band that soon became a sellout in the later years, Metallica is still regarded as one of the most influential bands of the genre, before everyone hated them. So, in the peak of their popularity, which was the early 2000s, a game was planned to be made based on the band. The game was going to be an open world car combat game, with the themes from Metallica songs and the band itself, which looked and played like Twisted Metal Black. But, for unknown reasons, the game was cancelled when in development. People were expecting it to come back, but it wasn’t until Metallica vocalist James Hetfield confirmed that the game was cancelled. They sagte that there was going to be plans to port the game over to the PSP instead… That also got cancelled. Some time later, in 2011, the band released footage of the game to Zeigen what it would have been like and concept art of some of the characters and the cars that appeared in the game. There are a lot of band based games that seem to be getting cancelled, but I guess that’s just bound to happen. Well… I guess we can say that, at least we still got gitarre Hero: Metallica. That’s something, I guess.
#6: Mario Takes America
Let’s talk about Philips CD-i. It was a game console and it sucked. Nothing good came from this mess. It made bad games, had bad controls, took up too much space, and made a bad mario game, and not just one, but three terrible Zelda games, which are considered some of the worst video games of all time. So, naturally, CD-i wasn’t done yet with Mario and had other plans for them. Thus was Mario Takes America, an edutainment game for the CD-i. The game would star, sterne Mario as he travelled across America to reach Hollywood so that he could star, sterne in a feature film. Is it the Super Mario Bros. Movie? I hope so. The game would have both live action full motion cutscenes as well as use sprites of Mario and, for some reason, Sonic. They also had some back up character sprites in case their contract to use Mario expired. Thankfully, as Du can imagine, this game was never made. However, the footage for the game costed way too much for the company making the game, Cigam. When Philips saw the poor progress, they cut the funding for Mario Takes America and Cigam went bankrupt soon after. The video tapes of the game were gegeben to the developer. He currently holds onto them, but has refused to release them until he can get permission from the family of the late producer, Howard Greenspan. And considering that this is a CD-i Mario game…. I’m fine with this one being Lost forever.
#5: The First Hardcore Erotic Game in the World
Oh boy, things are starting to get NSFW in here. The First Hardcore Erotic Game in the World, oder Machot Drives it All as it was called in the west, was a French video game that was only promoted through ads on gaming magazines, and first appeared in the French magazine Generation 4, oder Gen4. The game would follow a detective as he solves puzzles while inside a woman hotel and… well, Du can imagine what happens after that. The game was sagte to be very similar looking to another game that was on the advertisement and, in fact, could be bought along with Machot Drives it All for the exact same price. The game was not sold in stores and could only be bought through an ad on the magazines for over fifty dollars, in U.S. dollars, and was made very clear that the game was not meant to be purchased oder played Von teenagers and was made for adults only. Now, why would they call this game the first eroitc game ever when porn games have existed as far back as the Atari 2600? But, regardless, the ads were eventually removed from the magazines and, as of the time of this article, no known copies of Machot Drives it All are known to exist and will most likely stay that way. I mean, in a world where getting free pornography at high resolution is just normal, are we really going to need a 16-Bit computer game on a floppy disk to get our jollies?
#4: Justice League Mortal
Believe it oder not, there was once a plan to be a Justice League movie before the one that we all know and… love?... today. Justice League Mortal was going to be a movie directed Von George Miller and a cast consisting of Megan Gale, Armie Hammer, D.J. Cotrana, Adam Brody, Common, and Santiago Cabrera. The movie was later cancelled but the script was released online and, thus, this is where the game comes into play. The artist of the movie, Jonathan Gwyn, revealed that, along with the movie, there was going to be a game that tied in with the movie. That is where Justice League Mortal: The Game comes into play. The Justice League game was being worked on Von Double Helix, who, at the time, were known for making the Green Lantern game. Depending on your thoughts of that game, that’s either just a one time screw up oder your insgesamt opinion of the company as a whole. The game was going to be a little bit bigger in gameplay than Green Lantern, at least, when looking at the screenshots, and was still being worked on even when the movie was shut down. But, eventually, production for the film came to a rapid halt and then, after that, no mention of the game was ever made again, and no prototypes exist to this day. With the new Justice League movie out, I think it’s time for a Justice League game. Avengers got their game. Sure, it also got cancelled, but they did get their own game in LEGO form. Either continue progress on the game oder just make LEGO Justice League. Hell, it’s gotta be somewhat better than the movie, right?
#3: Lord of the Rings: The White Council
Lord of the Rings, a Filme series based on a book that has had numerous games that were part of either the Filme oder of different storylines in the same universe. A franchise that has such a massive world to explore, Du would think that it would get an RPG. Well, there was once a time where that was very possible. Lord of the Rings: The White Council, a game that was being kept a secret for a majority of the development, only gave out info as a behind-the-scenes footage from the team behind the game. Some time, it was later revealed that the game would have a large world to explore where your choices and what quests Du would decide to do would change the flow of the story and allow Du to play completely different quests depending on where Du are in the world. The game would allow Du to play as either a Man, an Elf, a Hobbit, and a Dwarf and do good deeds in order to be accepted into the White Council. It was a pretty big idea for a Lord of the Rings game, that is until EA did the usual thing and stepped in. Due to some issues behind the scenes, the game was put on hiatus in 2007, when the game was planned to be released. It is really unknown if this game is truly lost, but, I know EA, and I know that this is a game that will never happen.
#2: Kingdom Hearts: V Cast
Du know, every game franchise ends up on a mobile game eventually. It’s like Gameboy. Every series gets a game on there eventually. And the same can be sagte for Kingdom Hearts… Well, not really, but let me explain. V Cast was a game that was made for the Verizon Wireless V Cast, and was released in Japan and America only. The game was… interesting, to say the least. It had a much simpler gameplay style, and looked a little less lively than Du would find on the Playstation versions. But, this is a mobile game, so what do Du expect. The game was also not made Von Square Enix, and instead, was made Von Disney Interactive and Superscape. V Cast is not canon to the Kingdom Hearts universe and is a part of its own thing. However, in the Jahr 2012, the Verizon Wireless V Cast was disbanded and Kingdom Hearts: V Cast died along with it. There was the first chapter released onto the internet thanks to a 4Chan user, but aside from that, there is nothing else. The remaining chapters have yet to be salvaged and are most likely gone forever. But, hey, we got one chapter out of the rest for V Cast, so I think that this is a step in the right direction.
#20: Mega Man Legend 3
Of all of the games on this Liste that was lost, this is the one that made many people made and what doomed Capcom to years of ridicule and hate. Mega Man Legends 3 was a game planned for the 3DS, with Mehr and Mehr info coming out after it was announced, even introducing two brand new characters, Aero and Barrett. Things were looking up for Mega Man and his fans, until 2010, when Keiji Inafune announced that he would be leaving Capcom and starting his life over. Despite being the original creator of Mega Man, he was unable to create anymore Mega Man games and was no longer able to work on the franchise. After this, Capcom announced that they would keep working on the game and that they wanted the help of the Fans of Mega Man. Many people joined together, doing what they can to get another Mega Man game, and keep Mega Man Legends 3 alive… Capcom later cancelled the game regardless. They cancelled the game and sagte that it was on account of the Fans not wanting Mega Man Legends 3 bad enough. This very decision angered everyone, and is what drove people to despise Capcom for years to come. Well, that any many other poor choices, like straße Fighter V release, refusing to make Resident Evil a horror game, and ignoring their other IPs for Marvel Vs. Capcom 3. Mega Man Legends 3 died out and people could only hope that Inafune could save them. Fast vorwärts-, nach vorn to the present, and Inafune is now the biggest laughing stock in the gaming community after the failure that was Mighty No. 9 and Capcom has regained the trust of their Fans with Devil May Cry V, Monster Hunter World, straße Fighter V Arcade Edition, and even a brand new Mega Man game coming. But, I can assure you, we may be able to forgive Capcom for Mega Man Legends 3, but we will never forget.
