I am trying to search for an old nintendo pirate game which i used to love playing alot... the problem is, I can't remember the name of the game. Can anyone help me with this? I think the word "horizon" was part of the name

Yes... <b>"Uncharted Waters, New Horizons"</b> (it was the second of a series). You could play one of five or six different characters, and there were different storylines for each. The game was incredibly crafted for being so simple; you could sail to ports all around the world, and influence world economy with your trading, influence world politics by investing in ports, and find all sorts of treasures or interesting discoveries...

It came out for the Super Nintendo system, and also for the PC. You can still find the old cartridges on eBay; they are highly collectible and costly - but maaaan... Great game, one of my favorites. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="me.gif" /> Higher on my list than Sid Meier's Pirates! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

KOEI, the company that made it, continued to create more versions of the game (six in all, I think), but only for the Japanese and Korean markets. However they are currently in the midst of releasing a MMORPG called "Uncharted Waters Online" - which if all goes well they will be releasing in ENGLISH someday...
