This site's goal is to keep alive the
legacy of a very interesting computers from the the late 80's
and early 90's - The
Sharp X68000.
The X68000 is notably hard to find information -
It was only released in Japan and it was forbidden back then to sell it
outside the country. So it took a long time for it to became minimally
known in the west. Unfortunately even today very few westerns have the
privilege to have one of those powerfull beasts.
However, software paperwork is
extremely uncommon online,
notably game manuals, even on japanese websites. There are very few of
them available, mostly
cover scans or raw photos.
In this
website we'll try to keep a paperwork repository for X68000 software,
including labels, box art, manuals and every other paperwork we could
lay our hands on, all of them scanned in hi-res (300 DPI). Game manuals
will be scanned on a page-by-page basis and a .PDF file of it will be
available for download.
