Mr. Bill's Neighborhood

[Kialan]

How come this game isn't listed in the 2600 rarity list? Wasn't it a prototype? I remember reading about it 5 years ago.

[ATARIPITBULL]

That is a good question, I read about it also, some time ago, but I thought it was just an idea, never made.

No one has ever reported knowledge of its existence. I hope someone is just sitting on it, or that a proto is waiting for me at the thrift store I'll be hitting tomorrow.

 

Data Age's "Secret Agent" finally showed up, so there might be some hope.

[CPUWIZ]

I think the only thing found was this flyer for it.

[NovaXpress]

I didn't realize it was originally supposed to be out in April 83. I'd think that Data Age would have done at least some work on the game. Of course the 1983 releases didn't include Mr. Bill after all. That Journey fiasco seems to have killed the company.

 

Still hoping for Smokey the Bear and especially Mr. T as well.

Heh.

 

I'd like to find a copy of that one day.

 

 

I pity the fool who doesn't own my Atari cart!

[NovaXpress]

I pity the fool who don't release their Mr. T proto!

[Kialan]

Thanks for digging up that ad!

 

I coulda sworn I saw a screenshot of the game (at least a mockup) because I remember it always reminded me of Lite Brite (the toy.)

[AtariDude]

I always liked Mr. Bill. It would have been so cool to have him as a character. Too bad that it never happened

[moycon]

Seems to me that Mr Bill ad apeared in magazines back in the day as well.

It wouldn't suprise me if at least some work was done on it.

 

BTW : What game did Quelle pirate and call Mr. T ???
