(8/9) Lastly, I managed to hack in really, REALLY rudimentary English alphabet support for the name entry screen. This was entirely in Japanese on PS2 (but that'll likely change with an update), and I don't have time to do a fully polished hack for this. Instead, this is it!

(1/2) And here's the incredible ArdSCSino Plus using this same method. What's so incredible about it? Like the ZuluSCSI Blaster, this SCSI emulator supports CD-DA playback with CD-ROM disc images! Unlike the ZuluSCSI Blaster, however, the ArdSCSino Plus exposes a simple 3.5mm audio jack.

(1/3) Using the amazing Boot Loader from CaptainYS (author of the Tsugaru emulator), FM Towns owners can leverage external SCSI CD-ROM drives (or CDDA-capable SCSI ODEs like ArdSCSino Blaster and ZuluSCSI Plus) to enjoy *some* software, even when their internal CD-ROM drive is dead!

Finally got a Greaseweazle, and now I can dump FM Towns floppies!
Chances of me coming across something undumped isn't likely, but there's always the possibility... 😅
