| License to Kill | Tengen;Domark (Tengen) | ? | Story was a hybrid of the movie of the same name and the James Bond cartoon. Domark employees say Simon Nicol created and finished the NES version | labelminimizeminimize |
| Robin Hood | Arcadia Systems | 1991 | Arcadia finished this game right about the time [i]Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves[/i] (Kevin Costner's Robin Hood) was about to hit theaters. Arcadia didn't have the money to obtain an official license from the movie nor did they care to revamp the game. Publishing the game then would mean poor sales (people would be expecting an official PoT version). An official game for the movie also was coming which would further hurt sales for Arcadia's version. This finished game never made it to official publishing. However, it is available as a reproduction cartridge. | labelminimizeminimize |
| Robin Hood: Adventures in Sherwood Forest | Hi-Tech Expressions | 1991 | Yet another Robin Hood game unpublished for NES because of the [i]Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves[/i] movie. This one is a port of Millennium's The Adventures in Sherwood Forest which was published for several home computers. Millennium obtained a license to tie those versions to the Kevin Costner movie despite the game having nothing at all to do with it. At least one computer version featured the image from movie poster. Other versions (as presumably this one does) uses a very similar image with a model that is not Kevin Costner. The license for an official game based on the movie ended up being sold to a different company. This game uses an isometric view and archery plays an major role in this Action RPG's gameplay. | labelminimizeminimize |
| James Pond 2: Codename RoboCod | Ocean (Millennium) | 1993 | Finished version reviewed in at least two gaming magazines (1993 June and August). But ultimately not published. Possibly because of the same game being available for Super NES at MSRP $49.99 while the announced MSRP for this NES version was $29.99 (given the expense of manufacturing NES carts compared to SNES carts, the NES was likely less profitable and would have taken sales from the SNES version). | labelminimizeminimize |
