Hi Finland!

Long ago i posted this on your Reddit:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Finland/comments/bwbmis/ey_finland_we_are_looking_to_preserve_some/

As people was really kind, we werent succesful in obtaining all the the remaining titles i told you about. But, i would like to try it one more time, so we can finish this project, so here we go!

In case you dont want to read that much,

TLDR : Gaming preservation group called Redump needs some games released in finnish version for Sony Playstation 1 and 2, being these one of the last games not properly preserved by this group across all PAL region (Europe, Australia). Would be nice to catch it and dump it in order to finish for the best time in history the PAL Playstation set.

My name is Diego and i come from a platform called VideoGaming Preservation Collective.

https://www.preservegames.org/

Our platform works as a nexus for lot of different videogaming preservation groups and different people from the community. In this case, help is needed for Redump.org for optical media preservation (A.K.A. all kind of discs!)

http://redump.org/

In the last year, strong efforts were made by the members from this community in order to preserve the full set of games from Sony Playstation 1 & 2, a couple of amazing videoconsoles which we are fighting really hard to preserve every single game ever released. Those efforts included spending a lot of money and coordinating a lot of people to buy and bring those games to people across Europe (like me, in Spain) to obtain a proper data backup and document it.

For the first time in years, we are completely close to document every single detail and data from these game across Europe and Australia, what it's known as the PAL zone (being USA and rest of America, the NTSC zone, and Japan, the NTSC-J zone). And that's the reason we are calling this Reddit, to ask if any of you could help us in our tasks, by donating (or selling if it's needed) these games for gaming preservation.

On one hand, from Playstation 1, there is one game remaining, and we havent been able to even confirm its existence!

"LEGO Island 2: The Brickster's Revenge" with Serial ID " SLES-03302" .

We are really desperate to find this one, as we have great illusions on finishing your country's set of games for Playstation 1!

In the other hand, in Playstation 2, we are only lacking a Harry Potter title that we have proof it exists.

[SOLVED FINALLY!!!] Harry Potter ja Salaisuuksien Kammio with Serial ID "SLES-51216" and "5030949031198" as Barcode.

We try to priorize the Playstation 1 games because these comes in CD format, which nowadays is an optic format that is getting old and so, the chances of having scratches that can damage the data, are bigger. Still, we would be really excited to get this missing Playstation 2 game from Finland too.

The main task is to document the disc and all the info around it, plus obtaining a clean backup (its a simple process made by a tool called IsoBuster). This process can be done by anyone owning the disc if you have a PC with disc reader. So, if you are still interested in helping us but dont wont to give out the game, you dont have to, as you can follow our steps (which doesnt go beyond than copying some info writen in the disc and dumping it with IsoBuster).

In the case of "Lego Island 2", it would be better to have the disc in our hands, as dumping it with our special hardware would help us obtain more information about it, but still, dumping it with IsoBuster would deliver a correct backup for preservation.

Thanks all so much for your atention!
