Uchuu Race: Astro Go! Go! - Cancelled North American Release

Cancelled North American Release

A North American version was planned titled Freeway Flyboys, but was unreleased. The American version was reviewed in the July 1994 issue (Volume 62) of Nintendo Power which likened the game as a combination between F-Zero and The Care Bears (most likely referencing the 1985-88 television series produced by DIC Entertainment and Nelvana). The cancelled North American version said that the game took place on the planet Daisy Age, but it really took place on several planets. The name Daisy Age was probably a slight reference to the "Daisy World" scenario in the computer game SimEarth; which was an exploration of climate change in a planet full of daisies.

Famous quotes containing the words cancelled, north, american and/or release:

    “All the great words, it seemed to Connie, were cancelled for her generation: love, joy, happiness, home, mother, father, husband, all these great, dynamic words were half dead now, and dying from day to day.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “Come see the north wind’s masonry.
    Out of an unseen quarry evermore
    Furnished with tile, the fierce artificer
    Curves his white bastions with projected roof”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The mystical nature of American consumption accounts for its joylessness. We spend a great deal of time in stores, but if we don’t seem to take much pleasure in our buying, it’s because we’re engaged in the acts of sacrifice and self-definition. Abashed in the presence of expensive merchandise, we recognize ourselves ... as supplicants admitted to a shrine.”
    —Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    “We read poetry because the poets, like ourselves, have been haunted by the inescapable tyranny of time and death; have suffered the pain of loss, and the more wearing, continuous pain of frustration and failure; and have had moods of unlooked-for release and peace. They have known and watched in themselves and others.”
    —Elizabeth Drew (1887–1965)
