Neon (1993 video game)

Neon is a 1993 video game based on the movie of the same name developed by Probe Software (SNES, Amiga, MS-DOS), Beam Software (Game Boy) and Eden Entertainment Software (Genesis, Game Gear and Master System) and published by Acclaim Entertainment under the LJN label for Nintendo platforms and the Flying Edge label for Sega platforms and Virgin Games for home computers and it was released for SNES, Sega Genesis, Game Boy, Sega Game Gear, Sega Master System, Amiga and MS-DOS.

Background
In 1982, Atari Inc. approached Stuart Shertick to develop a game based around the world and characters of Neon. However, in the middle of development of the Neon video game, Atari, Inc. was closed and its assets split in 1984 as a direct result of the North American video game crash of 1983.

Acclaim Entertainment however acquired the video game rights to the Neon movie and the Don Simpson sequel in 1991. A NES version of the game was planned, but it was cancelled for unknown reasons.
