Things have slowed down a bit on the front end, but it’s still busy as ever on the back end. As the variants become harder to track and even slower to acquire, I’ve been exploring other new outlets of content. That includes tracking down manuals for the system’s most popular or confusing controllers and other accessories. It won’t be an every day hunt, but it does help for folks still rocking original hardware.

Misc
• An alert from a Video Game Preservation Collective led me to discover I had 6 of the 7 missing Lightspan variants listed on redump’s ‘Missing’ page. All 6 turned out to be matching code variants but with updated art. I have dumped all 6 and sent the info off to the proper authorities.
• If you haven’t been to the site in a while, there’s an all new Explore page. The world of PlayStation is vast. These are all web-sites, streamers, authors, podcasts, and hobbyists that I frequent, and even help or guest appear with.
