Hi devs!
I was looking for some retrogaming shops in Japan yesterday (Apr 22nd),
when I was lucky enough to find a webshop that sells some stuff that might
find some of you interested. In particular, they have Windows, PC98CD,
PC98FD (both 5.25" and 3.5"), PC88 and FM-Towns games.
The FM-Towns catalogue is small and mostly composed of Japanese games. I'm
listing non-Japanese games here (there are only a couple of ScummVM's
supported games):
* eye of the beholder 2
* afterburner
* afterburner 3
* alone in the dark
* alone in the dark 2
* indiana jones and the last crusade
* wing commander
* ultima vi
* ultima underworld
* ultima trilogy (1-2-3)
* operation wolf
* strike commander
* dungeon master 2
* battle chess
* 4d driving
* 4d boxing
* microcosm
* return to zork
The catalogues for the other platforms are too large to list, so you could
either look on http://www.suruga-ya.jp/pcgame.html (Japanese skils
needed!), or just post a followup here and let me know. Please bear in
mind that they mostly sell used copies of the games, and new copies are
not available for all titles.
Johannes and Walter already found games they would like to get. If
somebody else is interested, we could set up a cumulative order (and maybe
get discounts :) ). There are no known details about shipping yet; we only
know that they don't ship abroad directly so we will have to do it
ourselves. The exact procedure and cost depend on how many games we are
buying.
As there is a chance that we are using some of the project funds for this
(admins please nod or shake your head vigorously at this), I would say
that only ScummVM developers may take part. Also, I am not affiliated with
the shop in question, so I don't want to spend my weekends packing and
re-packing stuff :)
yours,
peres
