Ambitious project: Japanese Mega Drive and Super 32X manual scans

[Adol]

Bah

At any rate, I found WWF for 32X but still no luck on the MD version. Adol maybe you still have a copy for sale?

No,no extra copy for sale.

Thank you!
I for one love looking at the artwork and comparing it to the in-game graphics. And I'll never understand why all the effort was put into the JP manuals when the console was so much more popular in the west.

I know right.
There's a trolling meme on 2ch where they link to a survey that asked what consoles they play nowadays. Mega Drive being the least popular with 15 votes.

Soon the 32X section will be complete. I ALMOST missed out on NBA JAM, that one's a total bitch to find just like WWF Raw. But I got it now.

[bombman]

This is the last time I'm going to post in this thread, most of my hits and support are coming from 2ch so I'm going to keep it on that forum, no one here actually ended up contributing to this.

I will be updating the Mega Drive folder on MU until I'm completely done, so have at it if you're interested, the 32X library should be completely finished by the middle of February, Mega Drive library should be finished by... the end of the year probably, and after that I will start adding Mega CD games which will complete the project.

And finally, I have now started the folder for Sega SG-1000 and Mark III games which should have close to 50 games by tomorrow. I will be working on the Mark III games as a priority so that it will probably be finished no later than April as long as I can find a few of these games I'm missing. Also if anyone could post an SG-1000 game list it would be helpful.

Edit: Okay fuck SG-1000 games, because, like, nobody sells them. I'll be posting the ones I do have though.

On a related note, I am planning to put Game Gear games in this folder

but there is nothing yet.

I won't be doing Saturn or Dreamcast games simply for the fact that Radiant Silvergun manual is impossible to scan.

Thank you.

You are officially my hero now!! Not that I mind in the least but what inspired you to do this? It's quite the undertaking.

[CYRiX]

can you link to the 2ch thread? I wanna follow this

[Pancake Bunny]

Just want the 3 or 4 of you who still care about this to know that I'm still working on it, it's just taking longer than expected because I'm trying to get Laseractive games too which are ridiculously expensive. (Not for the manuals obv.)

I'll start going at a good pace again in about 3 or 4 months.

best regards,and keep going with the work!

Thanks I appreciate the help.

As it turns out hardly anyone in Japanese forums cares about the Sega things at all, although they enjoy the Tengen manuals because they written in an interesting way. But everyone is asking me for Super Famicom manuals.

I'm going to stop getting MD games now because I really want to start concentrating on the other systems and this is taking way too long since I have gotten virtually no help. When I first made this I thought I would be getting at least some contributions but besides you and one more guy I haven't gotten any help with this at all from anyone and scanning these takes up a lot of valuable time. In the meantime however I have been getting some more games by myself and I am pretty much satisfied with the way my collection is now.

So with that mind, I still have about 70 Mega Drive games left to scan and put up and this will take a long time. When I first started doing this I was on break and I could do this all day but now I'm really busy with work again so this could take a while. After these manuals are done, that's it for Mega Drive scans.

PM me if you need any of these. I scan at 300dpi and can re-size it as needed. Also, if you decide to work on sega CD games I....only have a couple so I cant help out much there.

Also I think it's funny how I PMed this guy and he got completely thrown for a loop when I told him I needed the entire manual and not just the cover. I don't see how people can be this retarded. There's no point whatsoever in scanning manual covers.

i know,it's so sad to hear you about stop gettin'megadrive games,hope you consider to continue the work(in your freetime,obv) and complete the manual scan set

too bad for the "null" support you've recived,but people are very jealous of their games..too bad about it =(

thanks to your effort i'm also tryng to scan everything i've got,if this summer i'll go in japan,i'll try to take some more japanese sega games to help your set

as always,thanks for your work,just don't give up,you're the best here

[darkweb]

Whoops! I totally forgot about this! Did you still want the scans for Golden Axe III and Ghostbusters because I have time now and can do them if you'd like.

[Pancake Bunny]

Thanks but I already have them both :/

Hm. Is this akin to the guy that robs a bank and leaves his wallet there with his ID in it?
