Happy New Year everyone! A special update to start the year with an archive of concept arts, articles, photos and screenshots of cancelled games or versions in development.
December 26, 2022:
Added 9 profiles + 1 agency to the database. You can now search by agency (although there is only one agency in the database at the moment).
I've done quite a bit of research over the last couple of months and found other artists whose illustrations were used for Master System games. The page dedicated to this console will therefore be put online later than planned.

Big update this month with the addition of 10 new profiles, a gallery for most of the artists already included in the database and a cover art gallery for the MSX1. As with the PC Engine, you can choose between a cover art gallery with artist names or a detailed list not limited to covers. I will update these pages as new information is obtained.
As for the galleries I've added for each artist, the size of the images is still quite limited but I'll upload larger images for some of them soon (those for which I have clean artworks / concept arts).
The new profiles in question:

The database has just opened with more than 100 entries. Approximately 2000 entries are currently in the work and this number will only increase.
You can find some of my old articles and Twitter threads as well as a new article about Yōichi Kotabe in the Features section. I'm also working on both old articles that needed a good update and new ones.
