Kyouryuu Densetsu (恐竜伝説 - "Dinosaur Legend") is a NES/Famicom game that was being developed by HAL Laboratory but ended up cancelled/unreleased.

It would have been an RPG set in a world populated by dinosaurs, that the hero should save, having his own dinosaur who would evolve and become more powerful (possibly in a mechanism smilar to Pokémon or EVO: Search For Eden).

There is very little information regarding this cancelled title otherwise. A small blurry screenshot is the only visual evidence left of it.

The original title, 恐竜伝説, is similar to the Japanese title of the 1985 movie Baby: Secret of the Lost Legend (恐竜伝説ベイビー). It is possible that it was adapted/inspired by this film.
