FC's stillborn "masterpieces" are too innovative, and they only hate to be born at the wrong time!

The FC era is the golden age of the home console game market, which gave birth to high-quality masterpieces such as "Castlevania" and "Final Fantasy 3", which have achieved a bumper harvest of word-of-mouth sales, and IP is still shining in the game industry today. But there are also some games that have become a blockbuster with their unique gameplay and brain-hole creativity, and the products have been promoted by the media, but in the end they were strangled in infancy before they were released.

For example, Square Enix's "Legend of the Holy Sword" was first advertised in the game magazine in March 1987, indicating that it would be released on FC drives in April 1987, and the advertising advertorial even compared to "Dragon Quest 2", which was in full swing at the time, saying that the game had a total of 20 teammates to team up, which directly raised players' expectations by several levels.

Then when it came to release day, players didn't expect this epic game, and Square Enix didn't give any explanation, speculating that maybe the game was too big a frame design and didn't have enough time to fill the hole, or it was trying to leave such a great idea to Final Fantasy 1, and in short, the game was gone.

IT WASN'T UNTIL 1991 THAT THE ORIGINAL "SAGE OF SENGEE" QUIETLY LANDED ON THE GAME BOY CONSOLE, AND IN ADDITION TO THE ORIGINAL TITLE, IT WAS ALSO NAMED "FINAL FANTASY GAID", BUT THE GAMEPLAY WAS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM THE CONTENT PROMOTED BY THE MAGAZINE AT THE TIME.

For example, do you know that in fact, "Street Fighter 1" was also planned to be ported to FC! Although there was no publicity for the game, it can be found in Nintendo's 1988 sales brochure, but the game ended up being a failure.

On the contrary, for Chinese players, the so-called "Street Fighter 3" game we played on FC for the first time was actually produced by the pirate manufacturer Hummer Group. There is a saying that the quality of this copycat game is really high, how many people really thought it was an official production?

There is also a puzzle game called "The Horror of Science and Technology City", which was originally a special game for FC peripherals "POWER GLOVE", which can realize human-computer interaction similar to the WII console through peripherals, and the creativity is very advanced. However, because of the wrong marketing strategy of "POWER GLOVE", the sales of the surrounding area were dismal, which directly led to the cancellation of the "Terror of Science and Technology City" project......

The world is often affected by some uncontrollable factors, not only in the game world, and even in World War I and World War II, there have been many times when the battleship design drawings have been done well, and millions have been invested in the construction, but due to various changes, the project has been shelved, and a lot of resources have been wasted.

For example, the recent Black Friday event was launched, and the newly launched CW series 10-class cruiser Brisbane B, which is designed based on the imaginary history after the successful construction of the Minotaur class after the war, so this ship also inherits a lot of Minotaur hull characteristics, such as 43300 HP, 101mm core area armor, 16mm hull, 33.5 knots speed, 10.4 seconds rudder effect, and the characteristics of catapult start.

In terms of firepower, the Brisbane B has a high rate of fire HE shell, as well as a 16767 standard wound, a range of 13.5KM one-finger torpedo, with a unique 12KM radar, which can launch a deadly attack on the enemy when it is difficult to detect.

Another example is the 7-class cruiser Lazo, which was originally one of the ships of the Soviet Union's 1937 Chabaev-class light cruiser project, but due to the sudden outbreak of the war, even the keel was not laid, and the construction plan was canceled. And in "World of Warships", it has a unique 10-second CD reconnaissance aircraft, which can achieve rapid reconnaissance and seize the opportunity.

Both of the ships mentioned above are now available in the World of Warships Armory, so don't miss this opportunity to experience the power of these "hidden ships"!
