LIGHTNING STRIKES TWICE

Acomplete and unpublished Days Of Thunder game for the NES has been found and preserved by the Video Game History Foundation. It had been worked on by the late Chris Oberth, who was then a coder and designer at Mindscape. A backup spread over more than 20 floppy disks was found, and it was possible to build a complete ROM image after some rigorous data recovery. The game, which has now been released with the blessing of Chris' family, is wholly different to the released version from Beam Software.
