I would, but alas, I cannot, for I still lack East Asian Language support on this computer since the support randomly disappeared a long time ago.

Captain, I have begun to blend in with these fools. It'll be only a matter of time before I get the booty.

EDIT: Yeah, I need to really know what the fields are asking for, all I get are ?????????s.

Here's an interesting video, http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm1175727 very interesting. I think it's an interview sort of things, it looks like they're using a slightly different version, the domes on the overworld in 1999 and 2300 look different, and 1999 looks more complete. I dunno, it could just be me.

Oh, and instead of robots on the conveyor belt in 2300, they're barrels.

What in the hell...

The Lavos sprite is the pre-version, so that's the give-away. But what's with choosing Dream Team heads on the menu? Maybe it's an elaborate ROM hack or something. Or maybe it's RPGMaker? The text looks rather clear and later, he uses his actual portrait in the menu, which HAS to exceed the color limit. But he'd have to code an awful lot to make all those scenes...

Well, the Dream Team heads menu thing, was probably made for this video, because I think it's some type of "behind the scenes" deal, or something, because they're talking. I think it advertises when it releases at the end. I'm not sure, because all I could read was the 1995 part, oh and close to the end, at the Zeal overview you can see the Blackbird flying, and a blimp at the air dock.

That blimp was also seen in the Prism cards. Interesting...

Yes, that's the video.  It's some beta footage (mostly from right around the demo cart build, but a few earlier scenes are in there like the airship) along with interviews of the team members.

Just found out how to rip the videos:

1/ Use Firefox (well, of course)
2/ Download Greasemonkey, an extension that launches custom scripts
3/ Download this script

Once installed and Firefox relaunched, a (ridiculously-small) "DL" link should appear on the video page near the left, above "2007年09月30日 16:12:22 投稿". Click on it to download the FLV file. You must have a Flash reader to read the video.
