Read About Dozens Of Cancelled Games In New Book
We will never know a large part of gaming's history. Forgotten conversations between developers we'll never hear, trade secrets people will take to their graves, and games that never came out litter the annals of the story of video games.
The folks over at Unseen64 are trying to dig up as much of that last part as possible. The site archives the stories of cancelled video games, researching each game and posting as much as they can find on their website. The site has stories on cancelled games as far back as the NES and as recent as the Vita.
This week, Unseen64 released a book, Video Games You Will Never Play, which compiles several stories of cancelled video games over the years. The book is crowdsourced and features contributions from over 45 writers. The book is available in color for $64 and in black-and-white for $29.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
