♢ Latest Update: 9th of August, 2026
New item added to the archive: the brand new Defender of the Future vinyl that's begun moving through the vinyl circuit (bootleg release; alas we have no official release of the soundtrack still after decades!) — one of my birthday presents I got for myself. I also recently was gifted a huge photo softbox for doing photography of larger items which is going to be so handy when I need to take shots of the books and magazines I have compared to my other softbox. Exciting! Scanner maintenance still WIP, I have been a bit worse for wear health wise coming through the tail end of winter here in my country but it is in the book still so I can get back to mastering scans.
♢ Previous Update: 20th of July, 2026
Almost all pages have photos uploaded and viewable! Still have a chunk to process but a large majority of the 300+ raw shots have been mastered. All game pages are now live; still missing some general item info om them but will have that filled in time. Once photography work is finalised it's back to archival scanning mode baby~! The trusty V700 just needs some maintenance before going back into full operational swing so that archival scans can be mastered once more. Previous scanning projects in the middle of being mastered (such as the Japanese B2 store poster) will finally be worked on again too. I need to get another VHS recorded and mastered, too. Lots of good things in motion.
