Pretty interesting.
Gotta love the response from game play counselors.
So beating Zelda:ALttP CAN get you places!
Any ideas what the game that got rejected 26 times was? |

He said it was eventually released as an unlicensed game. The only unlicensed company who at one time did produce licensed games that comes to mind is Tengen. |

What were some of Tengen's releases just after they went unlicensed (i.e. right after Gauntlet and RBI Baseball 1)? |

Super Sprint, Vindicators, and Temple of Doom were the first three never-licensed releases, AS FAR AS I KNOW. Not necessarily in that order. |

It's probably something like Silent Assault or RoboDemons. |

Well yeah. But I thought you meant never licensed at all since the versions are indentical and the guy says this 26 times rejected game never got accepted. |

Yep, it was (the label also gives a brief mention to Tengen in the copyright info). |

I loved the actual 45min video retrospective heh. Seeing the power glove again was a trip. I also dug the Mega Man opening. |
