Cancellation
Once Bound High was completed, Nintendo did not wish to waste resources marketing another game to a dying system and the game was scrapped. By the time the game was cancelled, the development of the game, the manual design, and a number of packages for the North American market had all been completed. The created games were all destroyed; the only known fully working prototype to exist is owned by Nintendo. Because Nintendo bought the license during development, Japan System Supply still got plenty of money from making the game and helped them establish a good connection with Nintendo. Bound High eventually received a follow-up game for the Game Boy titled Chalvo 55 that was only released in Japan. The game was similar to Bound High in its gameplay but Hideyuki Nakanishi had no part in its development.
