The Incredible Hulk
The Incredible Hulk was supposed to be a video game created by toy and game manufacturer Parker Brothers in 1983 for the Atari 2600. The release of The Incredible Hulk was scheduled for Autumn 1983. However, this period coincided with the video game crash of 1983 (following E.T.'s release in December 1982). During this crisis, numerous companies, including Parker Brothers, opted not to launch games that had already been developed for the Atari 2600. Consequently, The Incredible Hulk was never made available to the public.
Play to Befriend a Pokémon!
Play to Befriend a Pokémon! was a Flash game formerly available on Pokémon.com. It was a Pokémon Global Link promotion. The goal is to break blocks with a bouncing ball, similar to Breakout. Players use the paddle to keep the ball from falling out of bounds. When the ball hits blocks consecutively, the score increases by 100 each hit. Sometimes when a block is hit, an orb of its color will fall. These orbs, when caught by the paddle, are worth 500 points each. There are 4 levels, and the player starts with 3 lives. They may earn more lives and power-ups later. After playing, the orbs caught, depending on what kind, can be used to redeem 1 free Pokémon via the Pokémon Dream World, provided the player is signed in under their Pokémon Trainer Club account. These Pokémon are Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, and Glaceon. The game was removed after May 19, 2011, and the .swf file for it was actually deleted from the site.

Crazy Hit
Crazy Hit is a game produced by U.F.O. Soft that was released together with Crazy Hit 2 (known as the Playstation Pokémon for using unlicensed art from the franchise) and a special controller to play both. It is currently not possible to find the game or recordings of it available, so the only image of it available is the one on the back of the set's box. From the box art and the description on it (in addition to the use of the controller), it is possible to deduce that it shares the same gameplay as Crazy Hit 2 (a whack-a-mole like game), but without the use of Pokémon. In Crazy Hit 2 it is possible to see on the initial screen that the game was made by Poho and Majorros, however without the file for this game, it is uncertain to say that this game was also produced by both developers.
