Well, that doesn't seem to rule out that the unreleased Technovision game and the released CCE game aren't the same . . . After all, CCE released loads of other carts that never hit the shelves elsewhere (Donald Duck's Speedboat, Cubicolor, Immies and Aggies, Pizza Chef, etc.)

Regarding 7800 titles:
I'm pretty sure this is a pre-license Mat Mania too ...
Working title for Crime Busters?
I'm still convinced some greedy collector who doesn't want to share the game has this and also 7800 GAUNTLET.
It's good that this didn't come out. For a system with such a small library, the 7800 has a ton of flight simulators.
Working title for Basketbrawl, no?
Primitive versions of this have been found. Incidentally, Sega Master System and NES versions also exist.
Rampage was released by Activition, Rescue has been found. Very early demo but pretty cool.
Came out on the XEGS and is one of the hardest games I've ever played. A space side scroller, but so difficult, it's almost impossible.
Was this the one that was intended to be a huge adventure game, like Zelda? Rumours of it being a 1-megabyte (8 megabit) title or build. Knowing how cheap Jack T and company were, they would never have paid to develop or build. Though if Mitch has an unused 4-megabit 7800 cartridge board, perhaps it was intended to be used somewhere along the way ...
Some catalogues list this as WOOD AND WATER RAGE. May be a prelicesense TOOBIN'.

Re: "Prince" (7800)
Wouldn't this have been a port of the action/adventure title that was released for the Atari ST in '90 or so?

More than likely. There were alto of Atari ST games being converted to the XE and 7800 in the UK.

I don't think so. Crime Busters was done by someone else and just licensed by Atari. Solitare Group comes to mind, but that might not be it.

Crime Buster was coded by James Zalewski who went on to write Planet Smashers and had already done Barnyard Blaster. He also worked for K-Byte in the very early eighties... The Solitare Group developed stuff way earlier than that, I don't recall hearing from them after 1984.
