Unreleased games from the past are always a fascinating find for retro gaming enthusiasts. Today, an unreleased Super Famicom remake of Quinty (Mendel Palace in North America) has been discovered and leaked online.

  • Game Details:

  • Game Name: Quinty / Mendel Palace

  • Developer: Game Freak

  • Original Release: 1989 on the Famicom, released in North America a year later by Hudson Soft.

  • Remake Details:

  • The remake was intended for the Nintendo Power service, allowing players to flash games onto special rewritable cartridges.

  • Plans existed to release this on the Wii Virtual Console, but both this and other potential releases didn't come to fruition.

  • Impact:

  • For fans of retro games: A new look at an early contribution that may not have seen light previously.
  • For developers: Shows the development process and potential for unreleased ideas in game history.
  • For preservationists: Another example of how old data can resurface, potentially saving works from being lost.

Would you have bought the Quinty remake, had it been released?

I remember playing Mendel Palace at a family friend's house and getting really far in it. What a delightfully quirky game. I'll have to try the SFC version now!
