Some more Armati releases are listed here: http://msx.altervista.org/ I have some more to list, even on floppy-disk.

p.s. Would you happen to know who the publisher is of releases like this, which were released in Italy? https://www.generation-msx.nl/software/konami/circus-charlie/release/160/#rel_7270 There are quite a few of such releases, just look for the 3 digit product codes here if you want to see more images: https://www.generation-msx.nl/company/unknown/259/published/ Here are some another Italian releases from what seems like yet another publisher: https://www.generation-msx.nl/software/hudson-soft-japanese-softbank/zero-fighter/release/200/#rel_7664 https://www.generation-msx.nl/software/konami/konamis-ping-pong/release/474/#rel_7476

p.p.s. This Italian release seems very similar in packaging style to the pirate releases. No idea on publisher either: https://www.generation-msx.nl/software/unknown/5-elementare-storia-lezioni-ed-esercizi/release/5414/

rderooy thanks for the reply. It's very hard to know those pirate-releases, those with red case are the rarest. I think these were made by computer-shops itselves, so It's very difficult to know where they come from... We have to ask to the owner. The others.... I have many of them, and since tape magnetic material is very cheap, it's very hard to make a dump... So I have decided to avoid and not to buy them anymore. Maybe for these it would more simple to find editor even if it's not written but, as I can see, they were distributed in all Italian territory... and so, also in this case I have to ask. About Armati releases: the person who made them lived in Milan or nearby (Varese?, Brescia?, etc.) and maybe I can find out how contact him. That msxit.org site is mine, and I forgot to update it, so I own all the missing tapes with a titled listed - I could start scanning covers, and some of them have a manual, too.

Certainly if you want to scan covers and manuals, that would be appreciated. Personally, I would focus primarily on the non-pirate releases for scanning covers and manuals, especially software where we don't have a lot of information. Also, I noticed your website is missing a two or so Sony Italia releases; https://www.generation-msx.nl/company/sony-italia/835/published/

Sony's SDE-002 and SDE-010 arrived to me just yesterday, so the collection is complete. I think that one of the pirated-tapes is from a Sony tape ("lezioni... esercizi..." etc.).
