Thank you very much for this upload Adam, there was actually some never before seen Dark Cloud footage in here; the Dark Cloud Community will love this! 😊

you've just been sitting on this footage for decades?! insane preservation of gaming history right here my guy. thank you.

The Bouncer is my all-time favorite video game and the footage shown here is super cool!! There are a few recognizable scenes that remain in the final product, such as Sion catching up with the train. Some of the other scenes, like the confrontation with Echidna, are vastly different here compared to the final version! Many other differences can be spotted as well, like Sion’s outfit. Dominique is also shown fighting alongside Sion and his friends in the bar, which doesn’t happen in the final game! I love everything about The Bouncer’s appearance at this TGS event! There’s so much that differs from what the game ended up becoming. Thank you for sharing it here!

I definitely thought it looked awesome at this show as well, really helped the initial Japan pre-launch PS2 hype.

Who remembers the talks of "Mom can we get a PlayStation?" "We already bought you a GameBoy" "It plays DVDs" "Okay we will get It for DVDs but that's It" "Mom I need a memory card, don't turn It off!"

That snippet of Ridge Racer V footage with Ai in the reel was just 🎉 i hunt for early footage of that game from TGS a lot, weird obsession

[@AdamDoree]

Ha, you're in good company then. You mean GT2000 right, not RRV? I think this is probably the best footage that exists of GT2000 from this TGS - Digital Foundry/ DF Retro even used it in pt2 of their recent Gran Turismo special - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaCWc3isosaAf68

[@SK91NO]

@@AdamDoree Nope! I mean Ridge Racer V, in that video (in the video) showing off the PS2 there's a small reel of games flashing by, you can see Ai Fukami's immaculate face they totally only managed to push because they had few things on screen, other footage of the game I've been able to find come from Chinese coverage of TGS 99' And some screenshots I found on developer diaries, supposedly IGN had screenshots but those are long gone from their articles and before I found that coverage my only other hope was finding scans of some Japanese magazines from the time like Famitsu and NOURS lol.

[@AdamDoree]

@@SK91NO Oh right yes I see the bit you mean

[@PowercellZeke]

Awesome stuff, so cool to see new beta Dark Cloud footage! The Square footage you're unsure about isn't Final Fantasy, that was Chrono Cross

[@AdamDoree]

Thanks, will update the detail

[@futur3juli3]

Super cool to see that Unison has beta footage and that there was going to be another character!

[@Fellipe2k5]

Thanks!

[@weresonicthehedgehog4511]

[@eunaoseibrother8902]

Going to an event with a Lot of games holding a console from the Future with no games, now Thats something

[@halsalll]

Thanks very much for uploading. Huge shot in the dark, Adam, have you ever come across coverage of Namco's Pac Man World Presentation form this Autumn 1999 TGS? It was filmed on September 17th, "Business Day" at the show. I've seen edited clips so I know it was filmed. Any help would be appreciated. Many thanks.

[@AdamDoree]

Hey - sorry, that's not something I have any knowledge of! Maybe it'll show up one day.

[@Darkcloudbeta7_yt]
