Ok I uploaded a small pack of games, that I can't find anywhere.
Overdriver: I was unable to make proper disk images for this, so instead i just diskcopy'd them, hopefully, you dudes can make it boot from this.
My Today's Job: requires mouse, weird hang-gliding photography game
Cynthia V2: This is totally different then "Cynthia" in the hdd image. It's way better and has amazing SC-55 MIDI
C_Test: I don't know the proper title, but it's a very addictive "simon-says" like game. Try the "triple mode" to melt your brain
Formula X: Cool racing game that allows up to 8 players on one machine
Gradius Arcade: This is a hack to make X68k Gradius 100% arcade perfect. Uses credits and music is identical to the arcade
Larjis: Cool vertical shooter, capture enemies to use as weapons
Ahh My Princess! : Fun drop crap on monkeys game. hillarious
Logic Crush: Note same disk as Princess. Drive 0 for Logic, Drive 1 for Princess
T-94X: Cool tank war game with 8 players and nifty FMV intro
Famicom: bunch of famicom ports. the version of Super Mario is different from the one on image sites, not sure if these are freely available or not.

Many thanks for these little gems!
Now I will try to install them on HDD like I made for other games.Stay Tuned!
Massive thanks SuperDeadite ! Can you obtain Illumination Laser as-well ?
Eidis

Just 2 disk images created which are working on XM6.
You have to wait a bit (during boot-up) because some datas are swapping into RAM.

Made a new dump of Master Striker Zero off my original floppy. (yes it is actually called MS Zero on the cover and in the original manual).
The old image was a bad dump and is actually missing a voice-over. With the old image the mid-boss has one line of dialog when you beat him, in my new image he has 2 spoken lines, the first being when he comes out. A very minor difference, but once you hear it, you can't go back.
If you compare the images, one of the sound files are different sizes, hence the old image was partially corrupt.

New undumped game release: Racing Champ by Final Tear Z
http://nfggames.com/x68000/Uploads/RACING_CHAMP.rar (http://nfggames.com/x68000/Uploads/RACING_CHAMP.rar)
Top-down racing game where you must get to the end of the track within the time limit before it runs out to make it to the next track.
Uses full background rotation for the track. Supports analog joysticks and is a lot of fun with the cyberstick. However this game has copy protection,
I was able to get the game files off the disks, but an image was impossible and gave me CRCs no matter what I used, seems to have an unreadable partition that the game looks for, and will report back in Japanese "please insert the original disk" no matter what I tried. Will probably need a hacking pro to get this working on the real machine.
Hi SuperDeadite,
thanks for this new undumped game.
If you can, try to launch this program on your X68000:

This is the manual translated in english:
http://nfggames.com/forum2/index.php?topic=4610.0 (http://nfggames.com/forum2/index.php?topic=4610.0)
When you will launch the Proemu program, it will ask to insert the original 5.25" disk into Drive A:
After you have inserted it, press the space bar and it will start to check the disk.If it will find some kind of protection, the program will create two files in its folder called for example "type6.x" and "type6.dat".
Please, let us know about.
P.S.
Have you tried to make a copy of your original disk using another 5.25" floppy disk ?
I have tried making a direct disk to disk copy via TwinCopy and Filemaster, both failed. I will try this hack utility.
Attempted and failed. I used both the Fast and Slow options, none would work. Form watching the drives while booting,
it seems the game checks for unreadable sectors on both disks at the same time. Crazy for a doujin. This is probably why
the game has disappeared for so long... Anyways here's a vid of it in action:

Have you tried asking the KryoFlux guys (http://forum.kryoflux.com/index.php)? I don't think they've ever dealt with Japanese machines before and may appreciate the challenge.

anybody have this file to share?
thankyou
edit ....found them on ftp
thanks
FYI, those are games from a book series, World of X68000 I & II, I think. I used to own them. They sell for stupid prices now, I cut mine up to scan the ads inside. ^_^
Rare to barely existant X68k games do show up from time to time on the auction sites, ether by then self or as part of a lot of X68k related items being sold by the retro hardware "dealers". but as Lawrence said, you'll have to be prepared to financially bleed through the noise if you want to get a hold of them.
