    Just thinking why would someone want this unless they were a collector of classic consoles or writing an assignment on classic consoles or in the business of repairing classic consoles.

    • +7

      You literally just spelled out the reasons why people would want these…

      • I haven't comes across alot of people in those 3 categories in my whole life…. I don't think there are alot of people that fall within those 3 categories.

          Maybe you are not old enough to know any of these. I played all these systems, still own a lot AND restore a lot for a hobby and for my kids to see and now my grand kids.

    • The Virtual Boy scuppers that theory.

      • Why? Does it include the DYI guide on building the console in the "encyclopaedia"? Or no one collects/repairs that console?

  • Massive files sizes. SNES Book is 600mb. Someones google drive is going to take a pounding!

    • Legit question, is there any issue if I share that folder lol

    No Amiga <sadface>

      Yep, literally clicked through hoping for an Amiga Encyclopaedia. Left with a <sadface>.

      Hey mate does the link still work? Getting an 40 error

    • +1

      Was half way through and the link dropped just 30 seconds ago :(

      • +6

        Currently downloading them all. I'll re-upload the full thing on Mega.

        Took forever to gdrive to zip everything up and even then gave me 7 separate downloads

        • Thanks. I started the full thing but the downloads broke halfway and continuing didn't work. So then I was downloading in lots of 6, which was going well but then stopped above.

        • thank you!

        • +1

          Looking forward to your Mega link mate. Thanks in advance :)

        • Cheers same thing happened to me

        • Chrome tab has crashed twice during upload. I've given up and downloaded the MegaSync app.

          Should be up in 2-3 hours.

          • @SnowDragon: checking in for new link when online :)

    • unfortunately, doesn't work for me…

      1. That’s an error.

      The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

  • Brilliant. Thanks!

  • scraped from wikipedia? or mobygames?

    (Not convinced much of of this is original)

    Ahh - none of it is - just collected from multiple sits and put into a pdf - author makes this point in each pdf.

    • Yeah it's certainly a massive project for one person but I suppose he said it helped with some of his issues.

      Given the PS2 is the console with the biggest console library out there, I'm surprised he even wanted to do it after doing the PSX.

  • Awesome, Thanks mate for sharing.

  • There are a few others too
    https://daddarulekonge.itch.io/the-arcade-encyclopedia

    There 27 books, the ones I clicked on appear to be free too from daddarulekonge.itch.io

    Certainly took a while to upload. In total it's around 10gb. It's in a .7z because zipping normal was taking forever.
    This is just scuderiarmani's google drive upload zipped up and uploaded elsewhere. gddrive likes to limit the amount of download of big files sometimes.

    • Hi SnowDragon,

      I downloaded all the daddarulekonge files manually from the website, all 27 titles.

      I have 41 files and 6.85GB, I double checked each file and sizes.

      I am not sure what is in your 9-10GB file? I am not keen to download that to see what is in there?

      Fred

      • scuderiarmani had also included files of his own which included some strategy guides among other things.

        • Thanks for uploading and explaining the extra files.

      • Fred,

        Any chance you could share you zip file. I missed out on the original link.

        Thanks Brant

    • It says transfer quota exceeded, I only got about 5.5Gbs into it.

      • +1

        Forgot about that. Just gotta wait 2 hours or something for your quota to reset.
        Sorry :/. 10gb is a lot of data to just put somewhere online.

        • I figured it was something like that but hadnt used them before.

  • Just wondering the point of this? Can just look the games up on the net with more info.
