Announced after the
Game Boy release in 1992 but went unreleased due
to bad programming and delays.
Elite hired Cygnus to do the programming but Elite
were still in charge of the graphics. Cygnus obviously
did a piss poor job so Elite decided to started
from scratch and develop the game themselves. Unfortunately
it was too late and the SNES was dominating the
NES by this time. So the project was scrapped, how
far they got in developing the game themselves is
unknown.
On the left is what the box art would have looked
like had it been released. At least one prototype
of the Cygnus developed version has has been discovered.
