Reaction (far-out theory)

Searching for Info on Magical Drop 1, and not finding anything, I stumbled upon this site:

A game, from 95...the first in a series finished off on the Neo. Data Easts "Chain Reaction"

Then on the Master list, you see "Reaction" as a title in development in 95.

Is it possible this was mistaken as a title being developed for the Neo Geo?

I would like to hear opinions on this.

It sounds reasonable that this was just a mistake-though the master list mentions REACTION as a possible title for PULSTAR.
I remember a title named REACTOR named in a german mag 7 years ago-it was supposed to be a fighter,but with no screenshots and the title never to be mentioned again,all we have are our own imagination... wink
BTW,a fighting game from Data East named KAISER KNUCKLE was announced in the same issue for the NEO-so much for relieability of info back in 95! smirk

It seems even more possible when you take into account no screenshots were released, or info. It was all rumor.

Empirical evidence points towards my theory though.

Not that I think I will help much but an arcade down the road from me had/has one of the data east chain reaction cabs. I remember playing it and it being very very similar to the drop games. It was fun but I am unsure if the same people worked on it or not. Based on the similarities I would think so, but who knows.

Bump, now that everyone is awake. wink

Taito did a fighting game called Kaiser Knuckle.
