CV Gus Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 While watching the "Angry Video Game Nerd" on YouTube (5200)- it really is hilarious!- I noticed a clip for the Atari 7800 KLAX. Having read about this 'way back in 1991 (an "upcoming" game), and having seen screenshots years later, I was interested. It was absolutely fantastic looking. Sound was still a bit weak, but otherwise it seemed really excellent. So why was it never released here? Was Atari TRYING to ruin themselves? Wonder how a CV KLAX would be...

By the time KLAX was ready to go, the 7800 was largely off store shelves (having been replaced by the Genesis, SNES and Turbografx 16) and was cancelled.
