I do not find this in Gen-MSX Title: Hareraiser (Prelude) Developer: - Publisher: Haresoft Year: 1984 City: London More informations here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hareraiser#Release_and_critical_reception I have modified Wiki adding the MSX version. It seems that a second part named "Finale" exists. I've bought tape, only have to dump it. Sincerely, I'm afraid to dump tapes today, I think old tapes will be damaged by common MSX recorders (I use a Philips NMS series). Someone could suggest me a more professional tape equipment? (more sensible in reading signals, to avoid multiple wrong readings...).

I doubt an MSX tape recorder would damage it. But dumping with the Martos tool for MSX is definitely the most successful method.

Anyway, I'll add it as soon as we have scans/photos/dumps available.

@nrgo: very interesting topic. As suggested, I'd recommend Martos' tape2cas. It's brilliant and it's the one I use too. Greetings,

Ladies and Gentlemen... I've got it! :-) --- Big dumping session last Tuesday: - Hareraiser - MSX-MACRO - Phitel - Physics 'O' Examiner - Chemistry 'O' Examiner ... (and other, don't remember :-) and Italian software: Agenda Elettronica (Spreadsheet) Ascendente Zodiacale (Zodiac) Magazzino (Store Manager) Nova Games 3 (7 Games) Nova Games 25 (7 games) ... (and other, don't remember :-) --- I've dumped a rare U.K. game named "The Race". Dump is perfect, but it has a strange loader... It loads the loader, loader loads main program, and then it try to save the real game... Maybe software is compressed in some form, so it need another cassette. Someone could help me to make it work??? --- @vg8020: yes, I use Martos tool, but more than Tape2Cas, I use a special version of it: ITape2Cas. This is designed to recognise "BiTurbo" Italian format (different from Spectum Turbo loading format), used in "MSX Parade" cassette series. You can see an example on my web (Hockey.cas).

I added a first entry. I really hope to get more info (like scans) etc. And I hope to get the game some time as well :) It's extremely rare, I think. See http://www.generation-msx.nl/msxdb/softwareinfo/3636

Hmm, I'd prefer to have them in the original resolution, these are quite downscaled, aren't they?
nrgo • Jun 08, 2011 at 22:41
hehe , yes ;-) Reduced to 33%
Manuel • Jun 08, 2011 at 22:48
Please always post scans in the highest resolution possible :) Thanks for contributing!
