For games unplayed and unknown. The Obscuritory looks at strange and abandoned computer games, software, and CD-ROMs.

Remember Win Elvis-n-Space? Or Lemmings Paintball? Or even Odyssey Legend of Nemesis?

Found this little gem of a site recently. Unfortunately, it hasn’t been updated in a while (last blog post is from Sep 2025)

    Thanks for sharing! Apparently this is a personal project of the librarian of the Video Game History Foundation, which is really cool!

    I highly recommend donating to the VGHF for those that are interested. For $20 a month they’ll send you a magazine they have a duplicate of. This month I got an immaculately-kept Nintendo Power issue 75!
