I'll admit that I don't really check up on Nintendoage that often, but I'm glad I did recently cause I see that Mark0673 has released the infamous Arcadia VI proto.

As we know by now its very very incomplete.

Tennis - The only game on here that's even close to being finished. Its a pong type game, though you can move the cursors in multiple directions, making this feel a bit more like air hockey. Not bad if you play it with two people.

Xerxes - An overhead shooter. It kind of reminds me of Spy Hunter in the way the ship moves faster the higher it is on screen. I don't know how well that would've worked in practice. Its hard to really judge this game since its obviously nowhere near being done. Your ship can't even be harmed.

Ghurka - My favorite on the cart. Well I guess its my favorite more for what it could've been. Its a game based on Commando, which is an old favorite of mine. It plays well enough, but unfortunately you and the enemies are completely invincible. Probably the most pacifistic war game ever made.

Twin Cam Turbo - The most incomplete of the four, and that's saying something. A racing game, though the only things you run into are oil spills and power ups that don't have any purpose yet. I sure hope in the final version you wouldn't be required to move to the very top of the screen to scroll, like in this prototype.

Even in their incomplete state, they still seem to have more effort put into them than say Action 52. Maybe it would've been an alright multicart game? Guess we'll never know. Thanks for releasing it Mark. Even in its current state, the game is still interesting.

By the way I can't remember but does anyone know who the publisher of Arcadia VI was going to be? The title screen doesn't mention any specific company.

I don't think a publisher was ever attached to it, at least not publically.
