From Polygon: “Video game preservationists and engineers with the Video Game History Foundation have reconstructed a decades-lost Nintendo Entertainment System game, Days of Thunder, based on the 1990 Tom Cruise movie of the same name.
Days of Thunder, an unreleased and never-before-seen NES game, was created by Chris Oberth, who also developed Anteater for the NES and Winter Games for the Commodore 64. Oberth’s Days of Thunder is not to be confused with the game of the same name that was released by the same publisher, Mindscape, in 1990 by an Australian developer. Oberth’s Days of Thunder, now uncovered, was canceled for “unknown reasons,” according to the Video Game History Foundation.”
