Anyone know who this guy is? He just came out of nowhere and dropped like 50 books scanned. He has no twitter or asks for donations, nothing.

Thing is buying books costs money and it is time consuming to scan. So most scanners rely on donations. This guy just popped out of nowhere and is shitting out scans like it's nothing. Very strange. And because of that I fear he might just vanish one night if we take notice so make sure to save everything worthwhile.

I mean maybe we got lucky and a millionaire hired a guy to scan books part time or something but whatever. it's weird.

Could be. But you gotta debind books to get a good scan meaning you destroy them and thus destroy their value. Scanned debound books are resold but they go for a fraction of the original. So typically when you buy books to scan you know you're destroying them.

Can't afford the book? You can't read it. Simple. Communism is when an anti-white, anti-male, anti-religion big government tells you what to do, think, fell, everything is free and no body works, eventually the whole system collapses and the country goes bankrupt, like the soviet union.

These books have exclusive interviews, and other valued information. Nerds will battle on forums for years over a question that was answered in some book published 10 years ago. If you care about games, you care about this info.

Perhaps they had access to a Linear Book scanner?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mD2C4Gc8NTM

It even has auto page turning.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMD9a2h2ZKQ

This would make it a breeze for one person to go through a lot of books, even with a glued binding. Skimming trough the AoF2 book the page scans even in size, flat, and I don't readily see damage along the gutter edge. The cover and initial bits has weird divisions though which would suggest some kind of automated process involved.

Such a scanner would've been a godsend at my old job where I scanned books for a library. Two pages at a time, turning them by hand, having to reset the scan boundary every now & then as the position of the pages slowly drifted.

That's very useful. There's people who collect books but don't want to damage their books. We could find someone who has access to such a machine or owns one, and then have the collectors ship boxes to them and back. I saw a /v/ thread a few months ago where a guy was showing off his Japanese game guide collection and it was just boxes and boxes of the stuff. He said it was like an addiction.

We're in a renaissance for gamebook scanning and translations. Hundreds of mystery scans are popping up on Japanese sites and there's multiple groups uploading to internet archive and other places. Gamest is like half scanned by the Japanese mag scan project.

Other than just purdy pictures, this is a boon for information on old games. A lot of the big titles from Nintendo and other big companies that got western releases of course we know a lot about. But there's niche games that never got release outside of Japan and have little coverage on. Who made them, why, what were they thinking, etc? Total mysteries. This information is then placed in an easy to access manner no fan wikis and wikipedia.

Wikipedia straight up just deletes articles because they do a search, see that english sites like IGN have never commented on the game and declares the game non-notable. So why would an English site started around 2000 talk about a game from 1991? For that you need Japanese sources primarily.

And HG101 had a monopoly on these games since they were the only ones writing about them. But they write sloppy rushjob articles farmed out to random idiots. Breaking their hold on retro game articles is very key and important.

They're technically right, but we're also talking about magazines published in the 80's and 90's. They made their money on them and they are not republishing them. I mean, I really think they should! If they made Gamest collected into like 5 big books I'd buy it. But they're not doing that, and in fact it's a similar situation to old games where it's costly and impractical to adhere to the law and it's just easier to share. And we get into a situation where pirates are the ones who actually preserve all this shit. 3/4 of these companies don't even exist anymore and the ones that do they only focus on short term profits and they won't care about 30 year old games or magazines. Without pirates you could easily see most of this stuff being lost.

Like imagine 2100 some library asks around and discovers that we lost huge amounts of magazines from this period because no one bothered to keep them or preserve them. A lot of old nerds are either collecting mags or keeping the ones they bought, but do you think their family or their descendants are going to care? They're going to chuck old grandpa's shit into the trash the second that 90 year old dies. And if you think this shit is silly, we have lost so many old films before 1950. Most silent films are gone, and most Indonesian films before 1950 are gone for example.

Sometimes shit is uploaded directly to sad panda, and other times it acts as a middle ground that everyone can access and they actually come from chinese sites or other small groups.

Just today some guy uploaded some super cool obscure shit including Animedia guides, a Patlabor movie guidebook, and several issues of Compile Club. It seems every game maker had some kind of a magazine and very few of them were scanned.

It's just an unintended quirk of the system. They mdae one of the best formats for uploading and displaying image galleries since perverts are so damn organized so other people took use of it. Right now it's mostly ignored or tolerated but if any mod sees a lot of them, especially anything game related they remove it. But the site is so big it's impossible to properly moderate.

PDF stands for Photoshop Document Format. It's just something Photoshop made up one day, it's not some universal format. It's closed and you need photoshop to be able to do anything with it.

What is best for image galleries like scanned books is cbz/cbr which is just the zip/rar with a name change. It's so simple and anyone can use it! Readers like Sumatra accept it.

One thing though, si that to make sure at least the original pages are avaialble including page number and issue. It's annoying if people want to cite something and then some fansite translates an interview "from famitsu" with no issue or anything.

Second, be aware that a million people have had this same idea. There have been so many little sites that crop up translate interviews but they all die and are only available through Internet archive. We should probably try to compile some kind of database to keep track of them.

Its Portable Document Format, scientist.

>PDF stands for Photoshop Document Format. It's just something Photoshop made up one day, it's not some universal format. It's closed and you need photoshop to be able to do anything with it.

For anyone reading this, this is incorrect information. Im not sure where this person came up with this.

>open

Oh wow thanks. You know there's more to just opening a file right? How about editing? Oh wait, now it's a pain in the ass now I gotta use photoshop to extract it. Rather instead you have something like cbz which is just the raw unaltered images with a zip file. If I want to edit it I can just open it myself.

You can't get a file format more or more simple pure more simple than that !
