The 1994 Super Famicom title, Live A Live, has never released outside of Japan, but this could possibly change in the future, as Square Enix filed trademarks for the title in Australia, Europe, and the US in July.
Live A Live released for the Super Famicom in Japan in September 1994. The game re-released in Japan through Nintendo’s Virtual Console for Wii U in June 2015.
