this member's search for childhood nostalgia.

[anondreams]

hey there!

i made this account in search of a specific bootleg disc, i can't remember the name but it was a holiday rom pack.

here is everything i remember about it:

there was a christmas tune playing.
it had a blue background, with a blue anime elf/fairy.
i remember you could control falling snow in this screen with the analog stick.

a transparent red square would appear on top of it with a selection of SNES roms, i think around 100 games.
many of these games wouldn't boot.

that's pretty much it, if i recall anything else, i'll share in this thread.

you might be wondering why im looking for this and exactly what am i looking for.

im essentially looking to relive a childhood memory.
im a bit puzzled by its existence, the idea that someone packed 100 roms and that reached my hands is kind of crazy to me, did that person have a developer kit? how did that even get distributed?

im not even looking to download anything, or play the disc as i dont have a dreamcast anymore, but id like to see pictures of the menus and listen to the music again if possible.

v0.9.3 (X-mas edition) - 20001222
This is a special Christmas release to keep you occupied over the holidays. Merry X-mas and a Happy New Year!
Improvements over 0.9.2:
Converted the menus to a cosy Christmas theme.
Added mouse support
Added possibility to to interpolate mode7.
Speeded things up a bit. Note that it is still slow.
Fixed menu interlace problem.
Removed one of the soundtracks to reduce download size.
This is still not 1.0. Do not expect great speed.

Known bugs: Does not save to Joytech or Nexus 4M bankswitched VMUs.

i'm shocked.

i was sure i would never find this thing again, thank you so much!
i could never imagine there was a forum dedicated to it, that's incredible.

i need to know how these ppl went around to develop this.

thank you for your time
i'll have a smile on my face fo a while now, the music is abysmal
