Another lost N64 game found!

[A Black Falcon]

Mini Racers, by Looking Glass Studios. Yes, the Looking Glass that made some of the most innovative first-person PC games ever (Theif, Terra Nova, Ultima Underworld...)... this might not be at that level of quality (their N64 games were Command & Conquer and Destruction Derby 64, decent but not spectacular, and its being just a top-down console racing game), but it was never released due to Looking Glass' sad demise some years back, so it was thought lost... until a dev cart of the game was found recently. And the person who has it actually wants to dump the game, something that does not exactly always happen... (remember when Echo Delta, that unreleased strategy game, showed up on EBay? Yeah, I don't see that rom anywhere. But at $1500 for the game, that makes sense... though given that it's just a flash cart it'd be best to make a backup, you probably wouldn't want to give that rom to anyone else...) let's hope it gets dumped. I'd love to see this game, it's by Looking Glass and looks somewhat like Micro Machines or the racing stages in Blast Corps...
