It'd be interesting to see this reopened. But I have to agree that it is a bit suspicious that the kickstarter hasn't even started. Heck we haven't even heard anything about it.
I remember playing this a few times as a kid. I don't remember too much of it though. But I'm pretty sure you could redeem codes you got via happy meal toys, and get items in game. I vividly remember the world having a lot of grass and a tree house. I also remember there being some kind of superhero place but maybe that was for when MARVEL had toys running as happy meals.
I've been thinking lately about something that I feel we need. An "About Lost Media" page on the site. With Lost Media having increased in popularity ever since A Day with Spongebob Squarepants was being searched for. I feel as if it'd be a great idea to have a page on the wiki that basically tells new people what Lost Media is. I mean not everyone knows what exactly Lost Media is. I feel doing this would be an improvement to the wiki since it'd help newcomers learn about lost media and not just write an article about say their lost sonic toy, or some pet they had as a kid. Overall I hope people enjoy my suggestion/idea for something for the wiki.
I doubt these will actually be lost. The completionist has THOUSANDS of subscribers. I doubt these videos weren't already all downloaded and archived. Speaking of which. The internet archive actually has all 120 episodes with greg in them (completionist not beard bros). Either way the only videos that might be lost from this are probably a few miscellaneous update videos and maybe 1 or 2 beard bros let's plays.
Yes. That's likely it. I remember there was a neighbor who hated their music. And there was a rat.And no. That rat sadly never rapped.
Was that a Biggie Cheese reference? And yes, it is most likely Imagination Movers. The neighbor was the girl's uncle or something and his room was all drab and boring. I always watched it when I was younger.
It's a reference to rap rat (No not the creepypasta)
Not that this would stop them DMCAing, but if the contents were leaked onto the internet with its torrents and YouTube, it'd perhaps be hard to undo the damage because of internet immortalisation. I also wonder since people like Shima Luan of Planet Dolan can fall off the face of the Earth internet-wise if even companies attempting to sue them legally would ever get hold of them, but I digress.
Same applies to Scarce.....except he isn't lost or dead or in hiding or any of the sort. He just lost the motivation to make videos.
Now, back to what I was saying. I find it interesting how no one has stepped forth to give up any ripped files or coding. The closest thing we have for resources would be an old Scratch project located here
1. Can we please open up an official article on this? It is pretty much lost.
2. Can we possibly bring this game back like other MMORPGs such as FusionFall, Toontown, Pirates of The Carribean Online, Club Penguin, etc? If we get enough resources we may be able to do so.
Thanks for reading, post any of your findings down below such as coding, assets, etc. Or just leave a supporting comment to get this thing talked about more.
"Club Penguin will never be coming back. They shut it down because the devs didn't have the funding to run it since people stopped buying memberships which was their main source of income."
REPLY: Its not lost. Club Penguin Rewritten exists for a reason.
I'm putting this here because I am specifically referring to the physical commercially released carts that are not reproductions made later down the line. I hope that's ok. I know that technically since the ROM was dumped it is actually found in some form.
This game is still under debate whether it was released or not. The game was competed, there is no doubt about it, and the rom image was dumped. The game was being released by a company called Hi Tech. It was being planned for release in early 1995.
Hi-Tech Expressions ended up cancelling a bunch of games for the SNES, Game Gear and Genesis and I'm assuming they just went under. The developer, RSP is no longer around either. Their last game is listed as coming out in December of 1993. That game was Beethoven: The Ultimate Canine Caper. Meaning that Bobby's World and another cancelled game set for a 1994 release, Steven Seagal is The Final Option, may have been the last hurrah for RSP. So the reason that Bobby's World was cancelled may have simply been that both the developer and publisher went out of business and there was no money to get the game out there.
If you look at the game lists for RSP and Hi Tech Expressions they are pretty much the same. So either they were affiliated or worked with each other a lot.
However, I swear that I had seen this game for sale/rent. Others have too. And it would have been in the 90s. It's possible some rental copies existed or maybe there was indeed a very small release. But given that I could be dead wrong about the existence of such copies in retail stores that wouldn't be selling bootlegs, I have no idea if I am right or not. My main issue, as always, is that if commercially produced copies existed collectors would have them.
The Bobby's World wiki claims that the SNES version exists and the Playstation version was cancelled.
bobbys-world.wikia.com/wiki/Bobby's_World_(1994_Video_Game) *copy the link. it seems that the link function doesn't like parenthesis*
Bobby's World is a 1994 platformer video game developed by Siedel Software Productions and published by Hi Tech Entertainment for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and SEGA Game Gear based on the popular television show of the time, Bobby's World. A version of the game was scheduled to be released on Sony's Playstation in 1995 but was cancelled during its early stages of production.
This says Siedel Software Production. But it could be a typo for Riedel if they mean RSP.
I just don't find it plausible that the serious collectors who love posting their collections on Youtube and other places wouldn't have already managed to track down a legit commercially released copy. I have bought carts in the past from places like Game Gallery that still had rental stickers from places like West Coast Video and Blockbuster. So it is possible for rental copies to end up in second hand game store shelves. If rentals existed or some prototype cart was somehow sold secondhand then maybe that's what people saw. But I'm starting to doubt my own memory since no one seems to have an actual legit copy and you'd think that it would have turned up by now. I'm thinking I saw it at places that would not sell bootlegs even by accident like Toys R Us. But if I saw it in a rental place that means it's the possibility that it was not legit.
Does anyone remember seeing it? Especially for sale at a reputable commercial retailer? People keep claiming they did. Yet just like me they can't prove it. And i'm not the kind of person that will say "I'm 100% right!" without some kind of proof that I can present.
Sorry to ruin your fun but........Physical Media is not considered Lost Media. I didn't make this rule, I only say it. The games ROM file is lost media. But the physical cartridge is not. As cool as it would be for the Geno Plush, and Kellytoy Chowder plushes to be considered lost..........they aren't.
