Thanks to LiqMatrix’s incredible preservation work (with support from @museumofplay and @wccic), the KATT Games Master Keyboard (an obscure 90s gaming device) is finally archived. We've uploaded raw scans and files, + an unboxing video by LiqMatrix here: https://t.co/rOb1Ai7nmv

Fellow preservationist Robert Robichaud got in touch to share that he was recently involved in a game preservation project regarding Norway's first adventure games. A great article worth checking out: https://t.co/15StUeXCOC

Lovely article on University of Cambridge's Future Nostalgia project - rescuing knowledge from old floppy disks! Much of it resonates with the preservation work we do at GTW: https://t.co/Yx42qrUFi4 via @BBC_Future

From lectures by Stephen Hawking to the letters of British politician Neil Kinnock – it's a race against time to save the historical treasures locked away on old floppy disks.

Ocean Software had once planned an #Amiga conversion of EA's NHL Hockey from the Mega Drive, alongside Shaq Fu & Jungle Strike. While those two appeared, NHL Hockey never materialized. Were Enigma Variations the team behind the conversion? Read more at: https://t.co/Fzy19mhxfE

In 1989, Accolade planned Conspiracy: The Deadlock Files - a "fully digitised" VGA #PC adventure using 500+ photos of NYC landmarks. A six-disk, 24-hour race against the CIA, FBI, KGB & more - but it never saw release. Could anything of it be recovered? https://t.co/wZGL9sAqz3

Back in 2014, developer Andy Swann sent Games That Weren't a cool prototype platformer for the #SEGA Mega Drive called Frog Dude, where you could swap between a mace wielding prince and a frog with a large tongue. Not thought to be strong enough a title, and so was sadly canned.

Something very special today from GTW - several #SNES prototype builds of Porky Pig’s Haunted Holiday (from 1993–1994), including 6 unseen subgames (PORKATHLON!), early sprites, and loads of content cut from the final release. Plenty to discover! https://t.co/T8ZR6ksyH5

Following on from Kick Off 3 yesterday, we now have prototypes of Sensible Soccer for the #Nintendo #GameBoy for you to check out and enjoy, including differences in menus and game options, plus various bugs not yet fixed. Can you find anything else? https://t.co/58DSAfu9dD

More cancelled #GameBoy goodness today with Kick Off 3: European Challenge! Built on the Super Kick Off engine with a new 2.5D viewpoint, this version was scrapped early - though playable proof of concepts and a new menu system were started. More details: https://t.co/h0i94CH8fN
