Our friends at Hit Save! did a new podcast episode on keitai game preservation! It features me, Yuvi, XerShadowTail, and Unabandonware! We discuss the SquirrelJME emulator, restoring FF7 Before Crisis, and even the infamous burnt Layton i-mode phone. Link below!

The Kingdom Hearts Mobile i-mode minigames now have their online functionality restored, thanks to Yuvi! Each minigame has an online leaderboard, and you can earn Munny to spend in KH Avatar Kingdom. However, our partial copy of Avatar Kingdom isn't functional yet... (1/2)

timeextension.com/features/we-mi… This new bothers me way more then it should... I've know about it for only a little bit. I really want to save the history that is here, and I've tried my best efforts (to what i can do) to help save some important pieces. But no avail...

Just finished 10 hours of programming on Before Crisis. I was able to finish a big amount of database work and finish multiple other features of the game. For example, you can now properly start a new game, create an account, add friends, and much more.

Deathsmiles Gaiden Lost Days was a CAVE shmup developed exclusively for keitai in 2007. It has two playable characters and 15 missions. The game was preserved last year, and it runs quite well in the DoJa SDK's emulator!

I finally did it... What a tremendous task this was. But I fully converted the W51h build of Before Crisis to Doja code. Some things to still fix, but wow, seeing this just makes me so damn happy.

I preserved Bomberman Puzzle Special, an i-mode Bomberman game released in 2008! An expanded version of the original Bomberman Puzzle, it has 600 sokoban puzzles and the ability to create your own levels! You can save up to 10 custom levels.

Never-before-seen footage of Before Crisis Chocobo Racing! Yet another feature is now working!

『ビフォア・クライシス』のチョコボレースをプレイしたことはありますか？ガラケーでプレイできたのがよかったです。ソフトバンクのガラケーで『ビフォア・クライシス』が見つかるといいな。動画の著作権はYuviです。

Jingle Cats is a Japan-only PS1 game where you make cats fall in love so they'll sing songs for you. We've translated it for you to enjoy.

It's release day for #BravelyDefault Flying Fairy HD Remaster! To newcomers and returning fans alike, please have a great time! – Producer Asano 🎨 Illustration: Rina Yoshiura P.S. I greedily requested she draw a picture that packs in all of the new minigame content, haha!

Got my Switch 2, and I’m over here playing the Switch 2 Japanese exclusive Shine Post. Game is surprisingly good if you like idol management. ie.. it’s pretty much IdolMaster

Metal Gear Solid Mobile's SoftBank trial version was preserved by Cuebus! This is the second keitai trial version that has been preserved (the other was for EZweb devices). It runs pretty well, too! The full Western release of this game was preserved by KrZ 🇺🇦 last year.

Yo wtf? This explains why Region Locked has been MIA.

Ifykyk Translation coming sometime soon :D (And with a no cd crack and full compatibility with windows 11)

2Souls preserved Dragon Ball Racing (trial version) and Naruto Keitai Ninjutsu Taisen (ﾅﾙﾄｹｰﾀｲ忍術大戦)! Both were released exclusively for i-mode devices. Our copy of Dragon Ball Racing is a trial version, so it only has Goku and one map. Both games have nice spritework!

Well, it happened. I just recovered another lost Tales of Mobile game, Tales of Tactics! I cannot believe I have the honor of saying I've recovered almost every lost Tales of Mobile Keitai game at this point. Check out footage here. youtube.com/watch?v=LnCQYm…

Lost in Blue Mobile: Marina & Riku (LOST in BLUE Mobile まりな＆りく編) was preserved by TimeTravel_0 - basta! Contrary to its name, the game has an original story and characters! Its gameplay is similar to the Survival Kids Game Boy entries. This is such a neat find.

Another breakthrough! I’ve finished the Before Crisis Sprite Extractor. The custom format was a bit tricky, but it now extracts characters, enemies, palettes, animation layers, frames, and all 3D arrays.

Today I acquired a dev unit 3DS with 2 Dev carts, I know the contents of one, but the other is unknown. I will dump and preserve them :)
