It was possibly the closest Konami got in history to publishing a Parodius game in North America. A "deluxe pack" featuring near arcade-perfect ports of the second and third installments to this wacky Japanese shoot-em-up series was translated in English for both the Sega Saturn and Playstation. But in late 1995, promises turned false. This is a progression through the game's development and its wildest stories, going from "confirmed" to "canceled" in North America.

Welcome to the series where I review every single Sega Saturn game released in North America by order of release date. I made a spreadsheet with all the games satakore.com has as American releases, listing them off by order of release date, including sources. All the games are narrowed down to the month they came out in the U.S.
