Ok, every single title works flawlessly! About J.B. Harold, I can confirm it has dual language, the game can boot in English or Japanese according to the bios selected ( for English just go to Settings / Boot Options / Region Preference / NTSC-U > NTSC-J > PAL, then quit Ares and reopen it, et voila' ), note, even if you select the Japanese bios, the option #2 on the title screen allows you to play with English text. Further considerations... the overall quality of these LD rips is very good, surely not clean 100% (lots of noise and some sporadic micro artifacts on the image due to disc rot), but considering how hard is to preserve a laserdisc in a perfect environment for 30 years avoiding the inevitable deterioration of the disc itself it's indeed a bless that someone was able to digitalize such rare archive and make it public! And last but not least, this is the official list for the Laseractive system: MEGA LD PACK • 3D Museum (1994) • 3D Virtual Australia (1995) • Back to the Edo (1994) • Bi Ryojon Collection: Minayo Watanabe (1994) • Bi Ryojon Collection Vol. 2: Yuko Sakaki (1995) • Don Quixote: A Dream in Seven Crystals (1994) • Dr. Paolo no Totteoki Video (1994) • Ghost Rush! (1994) • Goku (1995) • The Great Pyramid (1993) • Hi-Roller Battle (1993) • Hyperion (1994) • I Will: The Story of London (1993) • J.B. Harold Blue Chicago Blues (1994) • Melon Brains: Exploring The Mind Of The Dolphin (1994) • Pyramid Patrol (1993) • Road Blaster (1995) • Rocket Coaster (1993) • Space Berserker (1993) • Time Gal (1995) • Triad Stone (1994) • Virtual Cameraman (1993) • Virtual Cameraman 2 (1994) • Zapping "Satsui" (1994) • Bi Ryojon Collection Vol. 3 (unreleased) • Legacy (unreleased) • Myst (unreleased) • Steel Driver (unreleased) • UFO & ET (unreleased) LD-ROM² PACK • 3D Museum (1994) • Akuma no Shinpan: Konseiki Saigo no Shinri Game (1993) • Angel Mate (1993) • Bi Ryojon Collection: Minayo Watanabe (1994) • Bi Ryojon Collection Vol. 2: Yuko Sakaki (1995) • Dora Dora Paradise (1994) • Goku (1995) • J.B. Harold Blue Chicago Blues (1994) • Manhattan Requiem (1993) • Melon Brains: Exploring The Mind Of The Dolphin (1994) • Quiz Econosaurus (1993) • Vajra (1993) • Vajra Ni (1994) • Zapping "Satsui" (1994) • Bi Ryojon Collection Vol. 3 (unreleased) • NHK Conversational Chinese (unreleased) • I Will: The Story of London (unreleased) • UFO & ET (unreleased) It would be lovely to complete the collection with Road Blaster, Don Quixote, Back to the Edo and some other funny trashy titles like Virtual cameraman and Dr. Paolo... LOL... FIngers crossed!

Ghost Rush... (Button A enter / Button B go back) Enter your name / Meet the old shop's owner (Buy-Sell-Choose target-Rank-Exit) then exit, on the following screen's map press up to select the haunted mansion... that's it... not rocket science... enjoy!

Well, counting that the system itself is 32 years old it's a bit paradoxical the need of so much power to emulate it flawlessly, pretty sure that code wise the Ares team is doing miracles already, nevertheless we have to remember that after all this is emulation, props anyway to the aforementioned team, killer work! Gonna post some more considerations when I finish to test the whole available catalog... Like 3nigm4 has stated correctly, you need a beefy rack of ram, I tested it initially with a lesser powerful mac system (16Gb), the audio was beyond messy, video quite slow... it is what it is... if you know what I mean...

I was able to test half of the titles on a MacBook Pro M3 Max 128Gb ram, wow, I have to say the emulation is flawless, no audio/video glitches, literally nothing, just perfect, the VHS shader gives the perfect rendition on a flat screen, just, Wow... I'm impressed... waiting to finish the monster 134Gb single download for J.B. Harold and I will leave another feedback, We are missing ROAD BLASTER!!! then we are golden... PS. Titles tested: Ghost Rush! / Time Gal / Triad Stone / Pyramid Patrol / Hyperion / Goku

@S.G.D The above description made me giggle but hey, you really have a good heart, hope your actions are gonna inspire everyone around, happy new year and thanx!

Hi everyone, someone can please share a 720p patch for Overboost? this version (Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs. 2 OverBoost (Rising Freedom / Hecate Update - 13/03/24)) Thank you so much in advance!!

it's like to put a fiat 500 engine inside a lamborghini... why? ...those games are meant to be played on a crt screen... in a real cabinet... i understand the evolution but at the same time i see things for what they are, these are vintage games, simple as that... no drama...

my whole point is very simple, unless you retrieve the original source on film (eg. for cobra command) there's no AI that can improve the details as you should clearly see from the resulting clips analyzed frame by frame... ps. i'm 37... i just have a long experience regarding video technology... but yeah, if you're fine with an average result we're all golden... peace! ps. if you try to convert a digital source from 1080p to 4k then it's another story...

no worries, remastering is (technically speaking) a digital transfer from the original footage (which most likely comes from film) to a higher resolution and in the process the image gets cleaned and the color/contrast go through a color correction (grading) which is manually done, sometimes scene by scene, technically what you did is of course a remastering but there's no AI that can improve the detail from ntsc or pal SD definition, simply because the LD source resolution it's too small, that's why the image looks sharper but the details are completely gone and screwed, personally i don't understand this 4k thing for a standard that is supposed to be 640x480 and displayed on a crt screen... as i said no offense, i'm a purist and mine it's just an objective observation about the image quality...

@HVG ...sorry, no offense but this looks like crap to me... did you see at the details before stating that these conversions are respecting as much as possible the original sources? cobra command copyrights are barely recognizable, the title itself it's messed up and mad dog mccree looks way better in standard definition... this thing can't be considered a remaster in any way whatsoever...

my version was restored from scratch and following the original arcade structure and design so i highly doubt you're gonna find the same quality somewhere else, the original singe edition was as crappy as it comes, i guess the end credits are gonna be pretty different like some others in-game details...

the sound system is damn good!

most likely you have to change and set system locale settings to japanese

Is there anyone who can provide a link of a compiled 0.233 no nag + hi-scores enabled version? thanks!

Bravo!!
