First known video footage of this.

Looks cool. Definitely a unique spin on the falling block puzzle game.

Fun Fun Bros is a re-skin of the same game. Also unreleased. Both are lost treasures.

Would love to know the story behind the footage.

Evidence has now been found that points to Sun Shine and Block Paradise being separate games.

So i wonder if its a half finished rom or what the situation is. I also wonder how the video was taken, from a mvs board with the game burned jnto eeproms or if its a rom image in a multicart or something

Interesting that they essentially made 3 versions of the same game and never released any of them.

I love puzzle games would be awesome if one of these protos were found and dumped so we could play it.

They are all considered finished games. The footage of Fun Fun Brothers is from from 1997, so it's not from a multicart. It's proto roms on a board or dev board. I wonder about the Block Paradise footage too.

My question is if we will be ever able to play them?
