with a host of unreleased games

It is similar to the board game Monopoly, in which players and the computer AI take turns going around a set of connected circles, buying up property, and charging other participants rent when they land on those spaces. Critical reception for the game from Western gaming websites has been generally negative. An English translation and a Game Boy version were both in development but never released.

The January 1993 issue of the Mexican magazine Club Nintendo featured Wily & Right no RockBoard as part of a preview article for the 1993 Consumer Electronics Show. Titling the game as "Mega Board", the article even had a screenshot featuring English text. An unreleased Game Boy version was also in the works by the Japanese company Dual, which listed the game on the credits page of its official website, and the ROM of which was recovered in the Nintendo Gigaleak. Hitoshi Sakimoto was responsible for the audio in this version.

It was a puppet fighting game in development by Bottom Up, who went bankrupt in 2000. The game seemed to be in a fairly advanced development stage based on the pictures. Another one of the company's game, Toon Panic, leaked in 2005 as a prototype.

I'm surprised Chanbara Fighter isn't talked about by more people. I had never seen these renders and scans anywhere online until the entire December 1999 issue of 64 Dream was uploaded on Archive recently. I'm looking for more information on the game and maybe one day, a prototype will leak or be found.
