Unreleased Sega 32X Games | Cancelled 32X games

[@ZakkHung]

Knowing that AvP could have been on the 32X is like a huge sword to the heart! That would have been a console seller!!

[@MasterCastTV]

Fuckin' A!

[@jonathanfiel6215]

No doubt I would've bought the 32x just for AvP

[@Jonnybravo-808]

It would've been a great port...

[@TheDarkwingj]

@@Jonnybravo-808 agreed

[@aryinc]

for sure.

[@VOAN]

The 32X cancelled library seems better than the 32X actual library. I guess the only thing Sega forgot to put on the 32X was a brand new Sonic, a Streets of Rage game of some kind, and maybe a Shining Force or Phantasy Star RPG or both or any RPG for that matter.

[@Jenovi]

It had a lot of promise.

[@ClintonSr]

Knuckles Choatix was their closest Sonic title. The game had mixed reviews but I loved (and still do) play it. Awesome game play with great music and a good story.

[@pauldavis5665]

Knuckles Choatix was good, but I think a new Sonic sequel would have been a better move for Sega. Had they released a Sonic 4 exclusively on the 32X as a launch game I think that alone would have sold a lot more units.

[@jimstone8842]

@@pauldavis5665 Knuckles Chaotix is certainly better than any Sonic game sega put out since then until Mania, but it was a little half baked. If they would've had more time to finish the levels, and maybe developed a single player mode that didn't use the combi-ring, it would've been fantastic, instead what we got was good but not as good as the 16bit games.

[@retrocysper3709]

@@ClintonSr actually it's supposed to be a Sonic Game. It was Sonic Crackers for Genesis then they scrapped it and made it a Knuckles game for 32x.

[@wolfgangfrost8043]

As as a youngster? I always heard that Atari Jaguar had a really good version of "Alien Vs. Predator" & I considered buying the system on the strength of that title alone. I would've been HEARTBROKEN to get the First Person Shooter, not the Capcom game, even though the other is very good also!

[@wolfgangfrost8043]

I'm also really glad I never paid money for the Genesis version of Michael Jackson Moonwalker back then. The arcade was also an awesome beat 'em up! I expected that to be the "Genesis" vesion. The home version was a super lame platformer with nothing going for it! I'm shocked they didn't adapt the Arcade version of the game as best Genesis could do.

I remember wanting to see a 32x version of Mortal Kombat after seeing how much better MKII was for 32x compared to Genesis.

[@johndewberryiii9925]

It was like the Saturn but without the loading lol

[@maroon9273]

Crazy they released the sega CD version a few months before the 32x release. Were able to have enhanced FMv games of the sega CD instead of MK1 and others.

[@daveruda]

If only a competent group like sculptured software was given the rains to port the trilogy to the 32x it could have been the best of the bunch.

[@creativecatproductions]

As an early adopter of the 32X this video holds a special place in my heart. I remember how many of these were promised in magazines….yet they never came. Rough times! I felt burned by Sega as a supporter. Great video

[@Jenovi]

Yeah, I too was waiting on many games that never released.

[@traceytaggart1740]

Alien Trilogy and Aliens vs. Predator would have excellent. That and that X-Men that was never finished. If those had come, I’d still have my 32x/Genesis/Sega CD I had back in high school.

[@entertainmentwizard2703]

Great video, it sucks ports of games like Aliens VS Predator and Dark Stalkers where cancelled, they could have done the system wonders!

[@Fjadls254]

Then again, Darkstalkers' PS1 port would still easily overshadow the 32X. At least, in terms of sales.

[@jokerzwild00]

Oooh I would have wanted to play The Bloodletting so damn bad.

[@Jonnybravo-808]

I remember wanting a 32X so bad because the Capcom Alien vs Predator was supposed to be ported. I can't believe they did'nt end up porting it on the Saturn. It would've been arcade perfect.

[@Jenovi]

One of my favorite arcade games to not come home.

[@soulintake]

I would have loved to have had that on 32x!

[@NotaPizzaGRL]

I wonder if it did not get released because Capcom lost the license to Fox Interactive. Then there's the whole problem of expanding the game for home release so some reviewer in Gamepro or some mag like that didn't complain that the game was too short, too repetitive, and other nonsense like that.

[@MasterCastTV]

Losing the Castlevania game is painful. I was actually really excited for that one.

[@NucleaRaptor]

As a lifelong Sega fan, this is the most depressing video ever. The mistakes committed by Sega's management around the time of the 32X's release were grievous and numerous to the point of being timeline-altering, all but ensuring the company's eventual demise. I legitimately believe that if things played out differently, Sega would still be a player on the console market today. Makes me wish I had access to a time machine.

[@Jenovi]

Sorry for dimming your day, but I do appreciate you watching this.

[@amerigocosta7452]

Very good video. At least it's not the usual "32X. Does it really suck?" or "What the hell was SEGA thinking when they released the 32x?" kind of video.

[@Jenovi]

Ah, well I really love the 32X and what it did for gamers. I think it's almost criminal that support was cut for it so early on. Glad to hear you enjoyed this.

[@enemyofthestatevcdking5982]

Exactly

[@JohnSTF72]

Didn't know they were so many unreleased games for the 32X. Castlevania: Bloodletting and AvP would be the most interesting imo. 32X was ultimately the victim of Sega's bad timing and the imminet release of the Sega Saturn. Nice video.

[@Jenovi]

Thanks John, I would love AVP on a home system. I just played through the arcade game a few months back and it's still great.

[@carlzimmerman8700]

Their is an excellent port of Daytona USA available for the Xbox 360 online in the Xbox live Arcade store. It can also be played on the Xbox1. I've played the Saturn version and have used the AM2 emulator to run the real arcade ROM on a high end pc. In my opinion the Xbox arcade port is as good as its gets short of actually having the real deal quarter eating machine in your living room.

[@briansteiger918]

Yes! I still play it pretty regularly on my Xbox one. I also own it on PS3. It's an HD remaster. There was also a great version for Sega Dreamcast.

[@Jenovi]

This new video is a bit of an experiment. What did you think of the format? Would you prefer a more detailed overview of the games that did see releases on another system compared to what I did here? Let me know.

[@vince19games]

Good format! I like the level of detail as presented in this video. Perfect bite-sized info of each game.

[@redsyrup1138]

Looks good. I haven't seen anyone else on KZbin address unreleased titles on any platform let alone 32X. You went the extra mile and showed screenshots and dev prototypes when possible. Bravo!

[@rexthesheep]

The only thing I'd suggest is having a little caption saying what game/version the onscreen footage is from when you're using footage from games other than the one being talked about. That's a minor complaint if anything, though.

[@nicholassullivan1239]

Thank you Larry! Those boxes did take some time but were totally worth it. I can't imagine a Master System port of Daytona being good, but I've been shocked by the quality pumped out of that system before, so who knows.

Are you talking about the intro segment before I start discussing the games? If so, that's essentially the plan.

[@townlinetim876]

Yes that's it. A Retro Impressions trailer would also be cool. You have great editing skills.

[@DraculaMarth]

The reason AVP development never moved to another platform was apparently because 20th Century Fox hated the game. There was this Twitter thread by the former Capcom artist Akitomo about how western comics influenced Capcom games and he mentions that Capcom kept asking 20th Century Fox to let them port the game up until 2000, but they kept refusing. He speculated that they didn't like that it was an action beat-em-up instead of a scary horror game. Of course, in 2019, they relented and Capcom put it on the overpriced arcade stick, but I think 20th Century Fox was just doing whatever they wanted at that point before The Mouse swallowed them up. Additional fun fact: Linn Kurosawa was created because they wanted to include Machiko from the comics but only had the rights to characters from the movies.

[@Jenovi]

Thanks for sharing. That really is an interesting tidbit.

[@Jamie-yp7qz]

I’ve been researching Genesis homebrew development, and I hope to tackle the 32X when I get experienced with the Genesis hardware

[@vince19games]

Damn man I had no idea that the 32X had so many cancelled games. I wonder how much money was collectively spent on all of these unfinished projects? Crazy to think about. And I wonder how the stack of cancelled 32X games compares with other systems. I would imagine it to be higher and maybe in line with something like the Dreamcast and the Jag. Nice video, sir! And I loved Zero Tolerance on the Genesis!!

[@Jenovi]

An unreal amount of money. The decision to end the Genesis and 32X wasn't well thought out. It not only hurt Sega, but also every company that had invested their future into these systems. I'm not done with my research just yet, but there are about 3 canceled games for every game that released. More important I believe is the amount of time the system was being supported vs the number of games that released vs what got canned. A system like the Jag was on the market for nearly 3 years yet has close to the same number of games as the 32X.

[@PlumbDrumb]

That's kinda funny Midwest Studios has a tornado for a logo :D

[@LeoDoesAllThis]

5:38 I think you actually mean the other Batman Forever game, which was developed by Probe Entertainment. Because according to Wikipedia, GamePro reported that a 32X version of that game was present at E3 1995, but it went unreleased. Also, the unreleased enhanced port of Boogerman makes me think of Earthworm Jim: Special Edition (Sega CD) and Earthworm Jim 2 being ported to the 32X as well, even though nobody managed to make or announce those games for the system.

[@ColonelNegative]

Great video! If only we had a port of the AVP Arcade game!

[@phillipmartinez2436]

[@weirdproq]

I would have loved for an enhanced version of Dynamite Headdy on the 32x, as well as Boogerman and C2: Judgement Clay. I hope someone dumps C2 online sometime somehow. I always love playing old-school enhanced ports of games, like the Sega CD versions of Earthworm Jim and Mickey Mania.

[@33Dannyb]

The 32X should’ve just been a chip in Genesis games and not a full console add on. Should have continued with the chip they put in Virtua Racing.

[@IanThunderbolt]

I would say the PS3 and 360 Digital ports of Daytona USA do meet/exceed the quality of the original coin-op since it's a port of that version with some extra content and no compromises and featuring the original graphics and music. Only thing missing would be the Arcade version unique control setup but that's a given.

[@Jenovi]

I'll have to check that version out. It's unfortunate that it didn't receive a physical release.

[@IanThunderbolt]

Yeah, you'll wanna snag a download before it becomes delisted or the services for these legacy consoles is terminated. It's pretty neat, it has a new Karaoke mode where you can just drive freely while the song lyrics are displayed on screen, worth it for that alone.

[@Silanda]

Something to bear in mind about the Duel demo and Mean Machines is that IIRC their sister magazine, which was the official Sega Magazine, published arcade shots of some games claiming that they were the Saturn or 32x versions (Virtua Racing and Daytona, for example). Mean Machines may have published them too, but I can't remember. Magazines of the time were quite good at either misunderstanding or misrepresenting what they were being shown. Judging from the small, low quality clip available, that Duel demo's animation was extremely impressive for the time. IMO too impressive for building actual game from at the time.

[@lganeshan86]

Love it and thank you for making this video. I grew up in that era.

Man, I'd love to see a 32X homebrew scene pop up. I'm so curious as to what the system was really capable of.

[@SpiralPegasus]

The thing with the 32X is it had little to no reason to be. The Saturn, though rushed out, was something that had a very short time before release, and SEGA had flooded the market with their products by then - Mega Drive, SEGA CD, GG, and SMS were _all active!_ and the Saturn was a few months' time away from arrival. Then comes an add-on... for a console that _already had_ an add-on (that gave it better benefits than the 32X itself offered). And then you remember that the Mega Drive had a Virtua Racing port that moped the floor ten thousand times with any 3D game the SNES had, and consider you could use that tech to develop other blazing fast 3D games. What the hell would you want the 32X for, then? Everything that was meant for it, or released on it, should've been left to CD, SVP or Saturn... All these cancelled games tell, however, that there were a lot of devs willing to bet on it. Shame.

[@maroon9273]

Thank you, it was too late to even bring out the 32x when you already have a lot of hardware on the market.

NES classic California Games? This game was released on many platforms. Not sure why the nes version would stand out. Great video! This is a positive comment!

[@Jenovi]

Well, maybe just in my mind. Growing up, nearly everyone owned or had friends who owned a Mario game, Contra, a Mega Man game, T & C Surf, and California Games for the NES. I never even knew until I was an adult that California Games was released on other systems because I had only seen it for the NES. So to me, it was an NES classic being it's the platform everyone owned it on. So, yeah maybe I shouldn't have definitively said that being it was based on my experience rather than fact. Appreciate the comment and feedback.

[@realmchat6665]

I remember being so hyped on the 32x back in the day with all the magazine coverage, never had one myself. Checking the system out now on the Retropie, the catalog is disappointing - but Virtua Racing is still awesome :) It is interesting to see what could have been, it would have great to see how far devs could have pushed the hardware had it been a commercial success and they had more time with it. Excellent video - thanks for all of your retro gaming content goodness. SBC Retro Gaming Community: www.reddit.com/r/SBCGaming/

I owned a 32X, I got it at the end of its life cycle for dirt cheap with Virtua Fighter as a pack in game. I had a few other games such as Star Wars and Doom. In my opinion, Sega should have rode out the 32X another year so more games could have been finished and released. It is NOT a bad system, despite the poor reputation it has. It just has a lackluster library of games. If you can find out on eBay or somewhere for cheap, get it. I wish I still had mine just for the sake of nostaglia.

The Jaguar also had far more announced games than games actually released. Of course the Jaguar, like the Dreamcast, has a very active aftermarket and homebrew community. I've never seen any aftermarket releases for the 32X. Instead of releasing another Genesis/MD Mini, I'd love to see Sega release the Neptune, a planned console that would play all Genesis and 32X cartridge based games. Prototypes and reproductions exist. There have been several aftermarket releases for the Genesis/MD. I have 4 or 5 in my collection.

I liked the 32x. It was just a really awkward system with many factors that caused it's demise but I had a blast playing this space fighter game it had with my friend as it was co-op. I remember him flying the ship while I was the gunner.

[@MaximumRD]

Man some of these could have been really great! If only the slot in Sega Saturn would have accommodated 32x carts as well maybe they could have continued these titles and more.

[@Jenovi]

That would have been an interesting turn of events.

[@maroon9273]

Even could have ported the games with a Saturn cart if all fail.

The Jaywar? You mean jaguar...

[@Jenovi]

:D

[@dad7275]

Yes I'd like to see more. Is it true the 32x enhances the visuals of the Genesis? Thanks. I subbed by the way. 😋👍

[@Jenovi]

Enhanced might be the wrong way to think of it. It was a new system that build upon the prior, just like all Sega Systems before it. I.E. the Genesis was build upon the Master System. So the 32X had full access to the Genesis hardware along with more powerful hardware to layer more technical details into the picture.

At 11:30 Is that the real cover art for "Duel"? The lizard man totally looks like a Xindi from Star Trek: Enterprise

[@Jenovi]

Ha! Good eye. It's a little easter egg I put in there for my fellow Trek fans. I actually made all the box art myself as not much exist, and if it does it's very low quality.

[@sidsinnocence]

Hah! Awesome. Good job! You had me on a hook when I paused the vid to take a closer look. I was thinking maybe the design for a creature in an unreleased game inspired a show runner for Enterprise. Ya'know, cuz there's nothing new under the sun and creative types love to pull from obscure material. You matched the Xindi to the source material well. The creature in the maybe-tech demo and Xindi do look pretty similar

AVP undeniably could have sold great on the 32X had it been released also Alien Trilogy could have been good as well for the system

[@Jenovi]

I fully agree. AVP is amazing.

[@TheDarkwingj]

@@Jenovi I loved it so much I made it into an fanfic crossing over with the CW Arrowverse I retold the arcade game's story cause the game was great

[@Jenovi]

Sounds fascinating.

[@TheDarkwingj]

@@Jenovi only differences were that it ignored the 2004 and 07 AVP films, followed the events of Predator 2 and the Aliens arrived on Supergirl's earth in an crashed ship containing eggs

[@TheDarkwingj]

since the arcade game didn't explain how the Aliens came to the city to invade

[@AIexanderthefake]

The colors are freaking perfect

[@SameNameDifferentGame]

Is there any documentation around the 32x port of AvP? I ask because Capcom didn't support the Genesis very much, releasing only six games. But the port of Punisher was done not by Capcom themselves, but Sculptured Software, which makes me wonder if they were working on the AvP port as well...

[@Jenovi]

Unfortunately, at this time there isn't. We know what games they had in development for the system (Street Fighter, AVP, and Darkstalkers) and that's about it. It's a real shame because I love AVP, in fact, I played through it with my son last Friday. It's still an amazing game I wish more people could experience.

[@SameNameDifferentGame]

It is still a super good brawler, but the Punisher port to the Genesis is a bit lacking, so I can't help but wonder if AvP could have fallen victim to the same fate.

[@SuperKokuJin916]

Capcom could've actually been releasing near perfect ports of their arcade titles. If anyone could've unlocked the true power of the 32X besides Sega, it would've been Capcom! AVP would've been a crown jewel for the 32X. And I'm almost certain the Street Fighter title in development would've been Super Turbo. Capcom could've righted the wrongs of the Genesis port of vanilla Super. It looked and sounded terrible. I did NOT see nor hear 40 Megs of assets in that release. It felt like a Western developed port (future research for that one!). I was a HUGE Darkstalkers fan and would've bought a 32X just for that one alone.

[@Jenovi]

Believe it or not, it was Street Fighter the Movie..... The Arcade Game.

[@marcolara5433]

Daytona on the Saturn was considered lackluster? I don't seem to recall that at the time...

[@Jenovi]

Marco Lara it’s an issue for sure. I think the best way for me to show what I'm talking about is by sharing a video with you. It's a must watch and really mirrors how I feel while discussing the fallout from the port missing it’s mark. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3aoYoSHd9edaqs
