Broken Circle is an unreleased rpg created by 7 Raven Studios. The game, which story was based on Nordic mythology, had a troubled development: publishers weren’t interested because it was too risky to cover the release costs for an unknown title that needed a big and expensive 256mbits cartridge.
By the time that the programmers managed to shrink Broken Circle to 64mbits, the console was at the end of its life and the only publisher interested in the game was not officially authorized by Nintendo.
In 2009, 7Raven Studios decided to release a rom of the game on its website, but now the download link is broken. The rom can be easily found with a google search, though.

Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix is a remake of the famous fighting game, that was released for the PSStore and XLArcade in november 2008. The game uses high definition graphics drawn by UDON Entertainment, at least in the gameplay sections. Robert Seddon linked us to the official UDON blog, where we can read that:
While everyone knows that UDON recreated HD versions of all the sprites, backgrounds, and character select shots…what you don’t know is that we also recreated the classic intro sequence for the game!
Unfortunately, it did not make it into the final version of the game. But, presented for here for the first time, we have the the full intro with redone HD artwork by UDON!
As some of you probably known already, those lovely gamers at Sega Saturno were able to preserve and release various cancelled titles for the Sega consoles (X-Men 32X, Virtual Hamster, Lobo…) in the last few months. Almost two months after their last release, SEGASaturno in cooperation with Hidden Palace, are back again presenting a prototype of an unreleased Saturn game, ready to be released as soon as the required public donations are met.
The title of the soon-to-be-leaked game is currently unknown, but we’ll learn more about it when they will be able to reach the target amount of 550$. They have already opened a topic on the Hidden Palace Forum with some more info on this new proto-fundraising:
-Well, which company is this coming from? Any tip about it? -It’s from a famous company. In fact, it’s one of the best and most well known videogame companies.
-Is this already available in some other console or system? -It’s a totally unreleased game, not available in any other platform. Therefore, it’s a never-seen-before game.
-Why donating for a game I don’t know which one it is until the required quantity is met? -Because you already know it is an unreleased game for the Sega Saturn, something that is not easy to obtain. I bet there’s an interest in making something like this available to everyone.
-Is the game complete? -No, it’s an early prototype. This is not in its final development stages for sure.
If you want to help to preserve this unseen game, donations have to be sent to [email protected], stating SATURN in the description so they can know for sure the funds are oriented to this release. You can also donate through the PayPal addressed field in the Hidden Palace Contribute section: www.hidden-palace.org/?contribute
