​
I am currently working on a project focused on the digitisation of Nintendo Family BASIC data tapes, with the aim of making them reliably usable on both original hardware and modern emulators. While a number of digital versions already exist, many are tailored specifically for emulation and require substantial adaptation to function correctly on OEM hardware.
This project focuses on:
• Accurate, high-quality data capture from original tapes
• Conversion and validation for compatibility with authentic hardware
• Long-term preservation and accessibility for research and restoration purposes
All recovered materials will be publicly archived via the Internet Archive for personal (repair), educational, and historical use.
If you own or have access to Family BASIC data tapes, I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to collaborate. Even incomplete or degraded tapes may contain valuable data for preservation efforts.
Please feel free to get in touch or share this with relevant contacts.
