V.Flash (which we have 2 of the 9 cds dumped for the system here already)
Tandy VIS
LaserActive (which uses Laser Discs - part analog and part digital, I assume we would preserve the digital data for these here? Dumping might be super difficult lol!).

I has me a complete US Laseractive set, but I'm not going down that preservation road. However, I could have *sworn* there was already a group of folks attempting it, at least from a Game-Rave angle, over at https://laseractive.wordpress.com/laser … e-database
I don't know how the hell you would get the data unless some crazy hack-up of a LA (would never happen) or plain jane LD player happened.
"Several Japanese LaserActive games are pornographic in nature. I will not dumping these games." = </3
From the looks of it, dumping requires specialized hardware and a bit of a run around. Still these are discs with digital content so the digital part seems very appropriate for redump. This guy seems to know what he's doing so I'll reach out to him, if he just goes his own way I suppose that's just as well as we have no LaserActive dumps though.

What's interesting is that I don't think most of those are 'porn', just nude video / peeping tom / strip gaming typical Japanese stuff, but I can applaud his legit parental instincts.

This guy seems to do absolutely nothing.
The only person who was able to dump the program part from LV-ROM/LD-ROM discs was BoboPJ64, who, unfortunately, disappeared years ago.

Any interest in other obscure consoles? Sent you a PM.

Well I guess he spent three years collect LaserActive discs from people hopefully dumping them soon.
But from the looks of it he has written software and modified hardware to dump the discs, so that's a start I guess. Also he's got a setup for high quality ripping off the analog portions of the discs (although that's not or interest for redump).

Words, words, words and zero results for 4+ years of his "work".

Would be nice to. Space Invaders XL and Toshiba Sampler were shared years ago, but both seem to be lost in ages. Bust-A-Move and Crayon Shin-chan were never dumped, AFAIK.
hopefully dumping them soon.
