A public fundraiser to secure various Xbox/PlayStation/PlayStation 2 prototypes was conducted sometime in February 2020 by Hidden Palace over the site's Discord. These prototypes are PAL in origin and most likely originated from Spain for use in magazine review/previews. The prototypes were received sometime in late March and most were dumped and showcased during various livestreams on the site's official Twitch channel. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to acquire additional drives to finish the project, the release was delayed until August of 2020 where prototypes were released in sets by system every week.
Additional prototypes were acquired from the same lot in October 2020. These were dumped by ehw.
All disc based prototypes were dumped using various versions of DICUI (a GUI frontend for DIC, or "DiscImageCreator"). Some discs presently have issues with DiscImageCreator but were able to be dumped consistently with CloneCD. Any prototypes stored on EPROMs were dumped with either a True-USB PRO GQ-4X programmer or a Retrode2 if supplied on a PCB. Prototypes stored on optical media such as DVD/CD/BD were dumped with various drives using either SATA/IDE interfaces directly connected to a Windows 10 workstation's motherboard or by use of a UGREEN SATA/IDE to USB 3.0 adapter. Here are the list of drives/hardware that was utilized to create the dumps:
- Plextor PX-760A CD-RW/DVD-RW drive flashed to firmware 1.07 (five drives) (PS1/PS2/XBOX (DVD-R)/SATURN)
- Plextor PX-W4012TA CD-RW drive flashed to firmware 1.07 (two drives) (PS1/Saturn)
- LG WH14NS40 (SVC NS50) flashed to Asus BW-16D1HT 3.02 firmware (two drives) (PS1/PS2/PS3/XBOX (DVD-R))
- LITE-ON DS8A8SH with firmware KH61 (PS2/XBOX (DVD-R))
- Samsung SH-D163B flashed with Kreon 1.00 firmware (two drives) (PS2/XBOX (DVD-R and pressed)/360)
- True-USB PRO GQ-4X EPROM programmer (EPROMs of any system, loose or taken from PCBs)
- Retrode 2 (PCBs)
The "prototypes obtained" list will grow as releases are made.
We'd like to thank all those who donated for all the prototypes featured in this lot. We'd like to thank andlabs, b-damandude, baruk0, Cliff Racer, DarthDub, Demon, DRW, burninrubber0, ehw, Fred Wood, GoldS, Hexatendo, HorrorTroll, kabojnk, KailoKyra, Kneesap, kuriatsu, LedInfrared, mementomori, Missle, OKeijiDragon, Protodude, RetroReversing.com, Sappharad, Sazpaimon, StarlightChaos, The Swarming Dark, TheAdmiester, TiKAL, TONY9675, XJR9000, mlk, ndiddy, Quazz, Xkeeper, ZeaLiTy, and Zoda-Y13. Without your help we would have never been able to acquire and preserve so many prototypes.

---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sony PlayStation | Beatmania | beatmania european edit PAL V1.0 6-8-99 | 1999-04-20 02:15:21 | No readable sectors, all sectors return C2 errors. Only the PX-4012 seems to read the disc. Possibly caused by adhesive underneath label. Disc surface is spotless, although burnt pits seem light. Might be readable with either a resurfacing or a stronger laser. Might match a prototype previously released in 2006. | |
