Some people may know me as a huge Dreamcast fan. So i collect anything Dreamcast related. I have just updated my Manual collection. As it stands, i have 495 manuals in English, Japanese and French languages.

I need all of the below to complete what i'd like. So if anyone can scan and upload or tell me where i can get some of these, it would be a big help. I will also take Japanese manuals of games that are not well known. At the moment, i have only listed titles that people have heard off. So i have avoiding all the dating titles ect... But if you have them...

A lot of my English manuals are from USA releases. If anyone has access to PAL scans, let me know.

I am planning on uploading all my manuals in a massive pack to share. If i can get more for the collection, it would be better for all.

And i need one French manual...
Taxi 2: Le jeu


I know i'm asking for a lot.
Cheers for any help and advice.

Gunlord and Sturmwind don't/aren't having separate releases between English and Japanese manuals. I have the gunlord manual, it's actually mostly an art book. It's like 1 page of graphics showing the controls followed by 6 or 7 pages of large artwork.

Rippin Riders was called Cool Boarders Burrrn in Japan, but I have the US Rippin Riders manual, as well as Gunlord, I also have the DOA 2 "le" Japanese manual, Bleemcast Tekken 3 (no manual, just an insert with instructions), Chaos Field, jp Mars Matrix, jp Gigawing 2, jp Rez, which strike me as potentially uncommon.

For English manuals, do you just mean PAL (as opposed to US) manuals? Do you have every other manual for the US and PAL and JPN (outside obscure date sims) 495 manuals seems a tad bit low for that figure as there were something like 230 US released games, around 200 PAL released games, and probably between 400-600 Japan released games if you're counting limited editions or varying editions of the same game, and all the uninteresting date sims.


Here are scans of ALL of the US released game manuals (scroll down to DC section)

Hey. Cheers for the reply. I guess there would be a few errors in my list. I wasn't sure if the newer games had different manuals released. Then again, why would they? :/
I do need the Gunlord manual. I am planning on buying it at some point as the game looks kinda cool.

When i say English, i just mean English language. Should have been more clear. My manuals are a collection of USA and PAL. The 25 i need wasn't released on the site you mentioned. Some wasn't released in the US.

I would at some point like every PAL and every USA scan. PAL scans are hard too come by. So at the moment, i'm going for whatever i can get.

If you are able to point me in a direction or upload any that i need, i'd be most grateful.

Is there any rhyme or reason to your collection of scans - like resolution or file type? I could probably scan the Gunlord manual for you, though I have to double check that I actually have a scanner I forget if I still have one, haven't used it in years. Gunlord is a DVD sized manual, so its taller than normal jewel case sized inserts.

I also have a hilarious advertisement that came with Headhunter advertising tons of new games coming out for DC in 2001 and 2002 - many of which were either released with completely different names, or others which were unreleased (advertising Propeller Arena as "Propellerhead" and talking about Gunvalkyrie, Jet Set Radio 2, as "coming this year" etc). I'm definitely scanning that in if I get the scanner fired up.

I like them all as JPEG. But again, i'll take anything!

Never seen that advert. Should be interesting.

I guess you are talking about this this:

It's sad list for a Dreamcast gamer. So many great DC games are unreleased.

Yep, that's it! I just took some terrible pictures with my webcam. The flyer opens up as 6 horizontal squares, most of them have a giant picture of a game (I think all of the games with screenshots were released in Europe), then one of the squares is the list of more upcoming games.

I bet most of them games were all started as well then just got canned.

A lot of them would have been mediocre and forgettable PSX ports: Woody Woodpecker racing, The Mummy, Planet of the Apes. Many others came out in Jpn or the US, and others have been leaked like Propeller Arena. Many others were probably never actually in development for the DC like HOTD3 and Jet Set Radio 2.

Cool. I'm looking for game manual scans as well. Moreso, the PAL version of the Aqua GT dreamcast game manual. That one is tough to get. Lol.

I hope you get through in completing your collection.
