Unused Sega Mark III product numbers

Following something Kenneth mentioned recently.
Those product number in the Japanese Mark III / Master System release list are unused:

G-1311
G-1333
G-1350
G-1368
G-1372

How could we guess what games they were?
Since Out Run 3-D and Rampage were announced for Japan, maybe they would have filled the later holes G-1368 and G-1372
(see )

Also Choplifter could very well be G-1311 since it was an early release and clearly mentioned in Japan.

Note that it has been discussed there back in 1999:

I'll try to work out the meaning of this thread.

nitron/弐斗論 post from 99年2月24日 mention that Poseidon Wars 3-D (ポセイドンウォーズ3-D) was mentioned in Japanese magazines and wonder about the game.

こんばんはです。この前のチャットはとても楽しかったですね。第三回が楽しみです。
ところで、古い雑誌を読んでいて気になるマーク3タイトルを見つけました。その名はポセイドンウォーズ3-Dです。
結局出なかったようですが、いったいどんなゲームだったのか気になるところです、同時期のタイトルはR-TYPEやイースでした。》桜さんへ凄いですね、青いROMとは‥
本当にSG関係の謎は、つきることがありませんね(^_^)


Yonedadada (よねだだだ) on 99年2月25日 answers and mention Cube Zone that was mentioned in Beep near the Phantasy Star contest:

以前紹介したBeepのファンタシースターの懸賞のお知らせの横に
も気になるタイトル「キューブゾーン」てのがありますね.欠番
になってる1350番はこれなのかな?こんな感じで欠番になってる
ソフトを埋めていけると面白いですねぇ.


Gemer answers that Poseidon Wars 3-D was released in foreign countries but he hasn't seen it yet.

ポセイドンウォーズ 3-Dは、外国でPoseiden Wars 3-Dって名前で発売されていたようです。
見た事無いけど・・・


Nitron/弐斗論 answers and guess Cube Zone = G-1350, Poseidon Wars 3-D = G-1368, Out Run 3-D = G-1372
Quote
ポセイドンウォーズ3-Dは海外では出てたんですね。
それと、よねだだたさんの画像見ました。
キューブゾーン、確かに載ってますね、周りのタイトルを
見ると本当にG-1350っぽいです。
そうすると、ポセイドンウォーズはG-1368で、あのアウトラン3-DがG-1372というところでしょうか。


Not much more information.
Later in the BBS gemer mention C-62 being SG-1000 "Champion Ski" (チャンピオンスキー) (unreleased), E-102 being "Kraphic" (Graphic?) (クラフィック) and B-51 being "Home Basic Level 2B" (ホームベーシック LEVEL 2B)


Note: the japanese text are intentional to increase chances of some Japanese people finding this topic and helping with informations.

The following MyCard product numbers are also unused:
C-509
C-513
C-516
C-517
C-518

One of them should have been Bank Panic.

Those have been swiped away from the internet. The page is still up at http://www7b.biglobe.ne.jp/~tera2009/sega/ and some contents, including the BBS files are gone.

I have uploaded of my my backup from 2000 which includes them:

http://www.smspower.org/sites/SegaMarkIIIWebpageTera-20000523

The site index is:

The BBS files are available at:

In a post here http://www.smspower.org/sites/SegaMarkIIIWebpageTera-20000523/bbs09.htm Gemer says:

感想
C-62 チャンピオンスキー
E-102 クラフィック
B-51 ホームベーシックLAVEL2B
知りませんでした(^○^)、まだまだ奥が深いぞいって感じです。


Which I understand that his impression/thought/guess? is that C-62 is Champion Ski, but there's no proof of that.

Please note that in typical internet fashion, Champion Ski has been associated to C-62 everywhere, presumably because it has been discussed as such on smspower.
