Hey All.  I don't know if this has been covered already, but I couldn't find anything by searching, so I figured I'd post it.  During my browsing today, I found out that the guys over at EAB (English Amiga Board) managed to get a working copy of this unreleased game for the Amiga.  Apparently one of the programmers on the original project had a beta (complete game, couple of bugs) of the unreleased game and sent an ADF to EAB.  This was a couple of years back, (2003) but I only just found out, and I'm assuming there may be some here who didn't know.  I am not sure of its legality, as it was released by the programmer, not by Ocean (obviously), so I will not post direct links.  However, I have tried it and it's extremely cool having this game released on the Amiga  :-D There was a WHDLoad install floating around on EAB, did anyone grab it while it was up?  The one on the WHDLoad website appears to be perpetually stuck at 98%  :lol:

Indeed it was, and until this copy was found, it was never released for Amiga, only PC-Engine.

EDIT - Just copied it to a disk and ran it on my 2000.  It's truly astounding why this was never released.  It's absolutely amazing how much detail was packed into this conversion and how faithfully it recreates the Arcade version, even on a stock A2000.  It also lives up to the NZS legacy - very, very fast gameplay.  Typical Taito  :-D
I just hope they manage to get hold of Snow Bros. (Unreleased Amiga Master was found, not yet released though)  :-)

Thanks for that, glad to finally have that  :-D

Yeah, there are so many games that were unreleased by the end of the miggy's (commercial) lifespan.  I just got a box of over 1500 disks, it would be nice if some undiscovered gem were in there  :lol:
After all this time, I don't know how Putty Squad, etc haven't been found, but here's hoping they will.  Check out the EAB boards sometime, they're doing some good work over there with unreleased stuff.  CFOU (of WHDLoad fame of late) has found and uploaded quite a few new gems, and Snow Bros. (another Taito game) appears as though it may show up soon.  :-D
