I've been trying to get as many original disc images as I can in a ready to use format for any applciation that would like to use them. The fruits of my labour so far are on www.theotherzone.com/wii/

At this point, I've pretty much exhausted all the online disc images, so we now need people to start scanning their discs. So, if you have a scanner (or access to one) and
  • a game that doesn't have an original disc image (including different regions) on the site.
  • think you can make a better quality scan of an exisitng image.
then please scan it/them and post them here. You don't need to worry about resizing or transparency etc, I can handle all that to make sure the images remain consistent with those already archived. If necessary, I could also post my photoshop actions for batch processing.

Only requests are that you scan them at a fairly high resolution (most covers on the net are between 1300 and 1500 pixels in height and width) and try and get them fairly straight (as rotating in photoshop etc can cause slight quality loss). Also, no custom disc images please!

The aim is to get as many disc images as we can at the highest quality possible, let the games begin!

Considering that pretty much everyone here owns the games they are playing (they are backups after all), I can only assume you guys don't have access to a scanner or all your games are already uploaded

BlackEnigma was kind enough to scan in some of his NTSC discs we are missing. He contributed the following:

Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2
Tatsunoko Vs Capcom
Okami (better quality)
Zack & Wiki
Madworld.

I will have them processed soon, then I'll upload them to theotherzone.com

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.

  • a_username_that_is_cool @ a_username_that_is_cool:
    FNF was born from Game Jams
