Syvalion is a shooter that was released in Japan, and in PAL regions. It is currently unknown why it was unreleased in North America, as it was translated to English for the PAL regions. Perhaps the game was too mediocre and short to warrent releasing it. According to the half.com page, it was supposed to be released in February 1992. The game was previewed by Nintendo Power in their April 1993 issue, so the previous date is likely in error. In that issue, they expected it to be released in summer 1993. The publisher was going to be JVC.
