This unreleased gem is being revived through a collaboration between iam8bit and the Video Game History Foundation, offering fans a chance to own a piece of gaming history. Priced at $100, the polished cartridge edition set for release in 2025 will not only include an authentic NES cart but also a detailed manual that dives into the game’s tumultuous past and Oberth’s career.
