Christopher Columbus

About

This title started as a planned shooter adventure for the Super Nintendo and Super Famicom back in the early nineties. Misawa Entertainment worked on it from 1992 to 1993 before pulling the plug. You would have piloted ships through levels based on the life of Christopher Columbus. The gameplay focused on navigating oceans and fighting enemies in a classic shoot em up format. Since the project never shipped, no one has actually played a finished version to test the mechanics. There is very little data available because the game disappeared before release. No community ratings exist for a title that players could not access. Most info comes from old development leaks rather than actual player feedback. The fact that a major publisher dropped this project makes it a rare piece of gaming history. You will not find scores or reviews since the game never reached stores. It remains a fascinating what if for fans of obscure cancelled SNES titles.
