Viewpoint 2064 unreleased n64 title

I'm surprised that no one had mentioned it here previously although the eBay auction was horribly labled. I tried asking the seller for any footage or screenshots but he never got back to me.
Here is a link of the finished auction, I was hoping it would go unsold and back up at a cheaper price...

Edit, change filter to sold listings from the link.

 

nevermind

 

That was very pricy, but I hope it went to a good home who will dump it...or at least many movies and such, worst case.

 

Unseen64 had an article on it and a little video:

Hadn't heard of it before and totally missed the auction. Seems pretty nifty.

 

Looks good, but perhaps the gameplay was too generic.

 

Yeah I'm surprised I'd never heard of it too, it looks promising from the 30 seconds of footage and apparently boss battles were epic.
Pitty you could only slide left to right. If you could move up and down it would have given starfox a run for its money.

 

i didn't notice this one.

omg what a lost!!!

As usual it will get lost in the wild, like Echo Delta and never dumped.

 

I was thinking you got it!

 

nope i didn't see it

I hope the new owner will accept a community dump.

 

It was probably the most horribly labeled eBay auction for such a special item.
Don't even know what the purpose of the n64 user manual is and to have that named first in the auction!

 

I was hoping you got it, at least it would have been in a safe and known hands then.

 

The owner was nice enough to get back to me to answer a couple of questions.
"I acquired this from a friend of a friend in the industry, as far as I know this is the only one. The game seems to be mostly complete with a level select for 15 playable levels".

I know of a few private collectors that may have got it, I'm going to flick off a few emails and see if I can find out who scored it.

 

Nice. That's definitely a solid idea. Keep us posted!

 

Thanks for sharing this with us. Hopefully it'll turn up around here.

 

I was able to get some footage from the owner, the game looks great! Such a shame it was never released, I don't know if there is any plans to release the Rom but this is a great start!

just amazing!!!!

 

I'm so happy just to finally see some decent footage

 

Wow, that game looks really cool actually. It's a shame it never got released.

 

I think it is cool as in finding a rare prototype but as a game I think it looks pretty awful. No surprise it was never released. Still, as I said, it's a very cool find as far as protos go.

 

Ha, your a hard man to please!
The game doesn't look to have a too much depth but it definitely has some fun arcade appeal in my opinion.
The game has 15 levels and from what I've researched you play through 5 to complete the story but you have to do a specific task in a level to take a different path quite similar to starfox.
