The US Yeah Yeah Beebiss II is published by Wave Game Studios. I've never seen it for sale on Wave's site though - only the European version. I figured I just had missed the initial few US copies, but maybe they never sold it on their site?? In any case, I was happy to see the developer selling it. (I always strongly prefer US artwork.) I'll attach a pic of the back of my copy.

My copy arrived. With a cracked cover... should I be surprised? Not mad, though.

Fellow collector Spaceturnip posted his collector's guide at The Dreamcast Junkyard. I think it's time for another audit. I know for sure I am behind on the latest wave of releases from VGNY.... but not today! I'm playing another game.

Does anyone own a physical copy of Witching Hour, or at least know where it was originally sold? I’ve searched for it for so long but I’ve never even seen a physical copy beyond the mockup from when it was first announced.

Anyone familiar with these Russian cheat and utility discs published by Symbas and Kudos? I would like to know more about them. Some of these products seem to be featured in dreamarena.ru

For Symbas, was there license or regional distribution ties to Sega of Europe? Are they pressed discs? Kudos has many bootlegs, are there any homebrew, novelty titles, or useful utility discs?

Symbas Kudos
  • CD-Loader CD-Загрузчик
    Utopia 1.1 bootloader disc SegaRetro
  • Dream VCD Player
    Cheat disc SegaRetro
For anyone passing by, check out the cover for ВЗЛОМЩИК КОДОВ. The cover game is strong!

They didn’t have any licenses, these were all pirated products released on stamped CDs.
KUDOS is not a developer at all, they only translated games into Russian, often the translation was of terrible quality, sometimes games were broken during the translation process and they could not be completed
