List of undumped MSX software (PLEASE HELP!)

To me. I wasn't planning to buy it at that price, but another member of this forum told me to do so so he can dump it, saying that he'd pay for it.

So fingers crossed the disks are in good, readable condition when it arrives here! I'll try dumping it myself if they are, but chances are at least one disk will have copy protection, so I'll likely need to defer to my benefactor...

Either way, it maaaaay be getting dumped soon. Again, fingers crossed!

I'd be interested in receiving a copy of the dump, so I can make it available for the public. If possible, please mail it to me at M S X @ F I L E - H U N T E R . C O M

NOW you tell me.

Oh well. I've got the game coming here, so I'll scan the manual for you when I can, at least.

-Tom

The game has arrived! And the box and manual are in pristine condition, so I should be able to get really good scans for you guys.

Disks A and B are in perfect condition as well, though disks C and D are moldy. But disk A is the one that potentially needs re-ripping the most, so just being able to get a good rip of that should make this whole endeavor worthwhile.

My "benefactor" who got me to buy the game will work on that once I send the disks to him (since disk A is copy-protected, and I don't have the know-how to properly crack it). In the meantime, I'll try to get you hi-res cover and manual scans (and disk labels too, I guess?).

...The game itself, BTW, is not really all that good. I mean, it's fine, but it's a pretty barebones RPG with laggy music and extremely frequent, extremely long load times (every scene transition, before and after every battle, etc.). Not a game I'd particularly recommend. The graphic style is pretty charming, and the music is good when it's not constantly changing tempo due to lag, but there are better RPGs out there -- even better eroge RPGs from Technopolis themselves, such as Shenan Dragon.

Still worth preserving, though, of course, and I will do my part to make that happen! As will my benefactor, who's really dedicated to preserving game history like this.

The first thing I noticed in http://www.msx.org/wiki/List_of_undumped_MSX_software is a mistake (as I think). The line:

SVI 325 Squash [1] (related tape version here)

Should be either SVI 318 or SVI 328 or both SVI 318/328 or SVI 728 or SVI 738 or both SVI 728/738 because there is no SVI 325!
