That’s because like Nintendo, Game Freak also seems to care about its own history, having kept design docs for their games all the way back to the original Capsule Monsters in 1990.Go on.
>Additionally, they also seem to understand the risk of said documents being damaged or destroyed too. Why? Because as it turns out, they’ve just recently hired a Japanese company called Seisyou to scan and digitise said documents, to make them easier to find and reference in future too.OMG fuck yeah!
>But don’t count it. As much as we’d all like to see such a book, it’s not what this project is for.NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>No, it’s for preserving said docs for people in the company, not consumers as a whole. So while there’s a chance something could be done on the customer code, it’s not something you can say with any certainty at all.Wait! That is still good meaning hackers have a good chance of getting this if many have hands in getting this tech of Betas.
>Regardless, it’s nice to see Game Freak at least cares about this stuff. That in a world where video game preservation is mostly ignored by the industry, that Nintendo’s associates care at least a little more about it than everyone else does.Hell to the fuck yes!
>And it does mean that in future, such an art book or document release would be more practical (and likely) than ever before.FUCK YEAH! We need super hackers to get on this case and hack them for 2024 if possible!
