According to this site http://p6-kei.hp.infoseek.co.jp/000_01_ ... index.html , there were also disk games for PC-6001 (not only on tape).

Searching this site, there is a disk version of Thunder Force 1 for PC-6001:

Someone in the forum has found roms images of these games?

Here are only disks images those I have found for PC-6001.

Too bad I haven't been able to get "Colony Odyssey Boken Hen" work well with any emulator. PC6001VW and iP6 got always stuck when I boot them with "Colony Odyssey"-disk, and again PC6001V and iP6 Plus 4.7 supports only .d88 images. I have tried to convert .dsk to .d88 with DSK2E88 2.45, but without any good result.

dsk.zip contains also files WORDPRO.DSK and PC66UTY.DSK, but I haven't tested what they are.

Edit: Went trough more of my files and found this. Technosoft's Island Golf for PC-6001(?), too bad didn't get it work neither.

I think I was too hurry to test these disk images on last time, here are some updated results

Island Golf should run fine with PC-6601SR mode (should read those .txt files inside .zips :oops: ).

I was also able to convert some of the .dsk files into .d88 format with PC6001VW3, for some reason it saves .dsk images in .d88 format when you load them with it. From those converted files I got .d88 version of PC66UTY run in in PC-6601 mode. After that tried this also to "Colony Odyssey Boken Hen" disks, but from those I got only first one of them converted into .d88 disk, but atleast it loads and runs fine with PC-6601 mode. Still too bad that I can't finish "Colony Odyssey" because I wasn't able to convert second and third one of the disks to .d88 images. I also tried to use again DSK2E88 2.45, but for some reason it doesn't work. Wondering is there any other way to convert .dsk images into .d88 images?

Emulator I tested Island Golf and converted .d88 images was iP6 Plus 0.6.4 Rel 4.7.

WORDPRO is still the one that I didn't get run at all, it just load some sprites to screen and freezes, even after .d88 conversion.

Well, after looking Ashura's great D88 file specs (very big thanks goes to Ashura \o/), I wrote my own program that converted those COLONY 1 and 2 disks into .D88 format. Game should now be playable atleast with PC6001V for some reason sounds doesn't seem to work right with iP6 Plus 4.7, but otherwise it should be playable.

Not sure thou is the header of converted disks valid, I had some problems to understand Track table's format, but atleast emulators and some other disk tools liked it.

Converted disk images can be found here.

I also added .pdf of Colony Odyssey's manual into packet.

Walkthrough for the game can be found from http://www.retropc.net/isio/colony/.
