DracIsBack Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I remember having some Atari Canada catalogues and price lists that referred to "White Water Madness" and/or "Wood and Water Rage". Anyone know anything about these games? Were they supposed to turn into "Toobin" from Atari Games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thursday83 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I remember having some Atari Canada catalogues and price lists that referred to "White Water Madness" and/or "Wood and Water Rage". Anyone know anything about these games? Were they supposed to turn into "Toobin" from Atari Games? I don't know anything about the games, but I know if you type in "atari 7800" in Half.com, they say there are a bunch of games that are "out of stock" that were never actually made for the 7800. Such as "Wood And Water Rage", Elevator Action, The Eidilon, Gauntlet, even Super Mario Bros. There's more too, if you check it out....some I've never even heard of at all - "Pyromania"? It's a tease. I wish all of those games had been made. Here's the link....go through the other pages too. http://search.half.ebay.com/atari-7800_W0QQmZvideoQ2dgamesQQpgZ4 Thursday83 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Laird Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 IIRC Pyromania was an unreleased game by Froggo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DracIsBack Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 IIRC Pyromania was an unreleased game by Froggo Years ago, Pyromania was listed as "the only unreleased 7800 game". That's obviously since been proven to be false. Not sure if anyone has actually seen Pyromania. Gauntlet was reported as having been developed by the guys who did TOWER TOPPLER in one of the european magazines. I can't remember which one, but I'm almost certain it was ACE. I keep meaning to poke through this site to see if I can find it. http://amr.abime.net/issues_24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and you are right it was Ace who did a preview for it, I remember it very well. Edited December 1, 2009 by The_Laird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyBee Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 (edited) Does anybody have a scan of the Froggo advert with the Pyromania game in? Given that the other Froggo games look pretty bad I'm just curious to see what it looked like. EDIT: Spelling.

uglyclone Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Wood & Water Rage? Could this be a port of T&C Surf Designs: Wood & Water Rage for the NES? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and you are right it was Ace who did a preview for it, I remember it very well. I wish I could remember the issue. It had the name of the programmer, which could lead to him coming here. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
