First, can we have new links to the latest version, please?
Second, is this catalog can be filtered by date?

Oh, I knew this website and I thought this was just the online version but they host the local version. Not very easy to find. Luckily, I am curious.
As I thought, the major issue is that you can't filtrate by date, and by publisher, it's not even arranged in alphabetical order. An attractive database, convenient, but not very efficient.

I don't know if they're distributing the offline version of the catalog anymore.
In fact, the website admin may not even be the original author of the catalogs. But at any rate, the website has been updated alot, so it has the most information.

For browsing by year and publisher, there's always Tokugawa's own PC98DB: http://fullmotionvideo.free.fr/screen/!index.html

I don't know what was the original form of the catalog but in Archive, you can download a copy of the whole website.

And yes, of course I know the fullmotionvideo DB but you can't start a search with multiple criteria. For example, you can't sort a company by date ascending, or browsing by year doesn't display the company. A database must not display data with tabs (=1 criteria) but with colomns (=multiple criteria) with at least one input for filtering purpose (quick search with all colomns available, not just original/romaji name, + a complete search form accessible with a link) and name of the colomns sortable in ascending/descending order.

The vndb performs that with some missing things but I want a more complete db about PC98.
In fact, I think I mistook this thread with the DB I find again in the Program testers wanted sticked thread.

Hello. I've been trying to find this app for quite some time, however, the official site has restrictions for downloading.
Would anyone mind sharing it along with the latest bases? Thanks.

I was under the impression that was a fa123 app? Am I wrong? Fa123 seemed to have said goodbye the other day. Where is the official site?
