...and other related media [er, I mean stuff, not like, the spell XD]

I will attempt to post both "official" and "non-official" media relating to the demons encountered in the Megaten universe :3 Which I'm sure could be helpful if the Demonary ever gets finished [is it like, the never-ending project? XD]

Most recently I've uploaded a collection of Devil Summoner Raidou 2 demon screenshots AND a big collection of demons from the Japanese SMTII guide/artbook, [found the artbook, don't actually own it. As for the screenshots, found them somewhere on a Gamefaqs thread ^^;]

If anyone wants any card pictured in a bigger resolution, just let me know and I'll get around to it for ya ^^;
Devil Children TCG
SMT Nocturne TCG

There's also all these from around the 'net: [a couple were posted here as well, but I just wanna throw them all in one place XD]

I think everyone knows Dokuganryu/Be Your True Mind.
Jack Frost's Corner; has various scans and a Devil Summoner Compendium to download.
A [selected?] compilation of older demon artwork from one of Kaneko's Compendium books [there are 3 published; 2 with demons, 1 with NPCs and game characters]. Can't remember where I found this ^^;
Persona 3 Tarot Deck; can't remember where I found this one either ^^;
The Heretic Mansion: with both an online resource and a downloadable fusion application.
One of the SMTOI Japanese Wikis; the last segment in the middle column leads to demons sorted by alignment and race.
Kawaii Art Zone 2.0 - A french website with a ton of high-quality art from video games, anime, manga and more! I think you need to register to take a peek, but it's free [and thankfully there's an English option to view the site as well :p]
Can't remember how I came across THIS page, but there's a few small scans of the earlier SMT TCG here.

Sprites
Devil Children Light & Dark sprites can be found here: 1 | 2
THIS Japanese website has a TON of sprites from just about everywhere in the early Megaten days as well as a bunch of other games XD [Specifically SMTI & II for SNES, MT & MTII for NES, If... for SNES]
Here's the site with a ton of early game sprites HERE. A great resource!

PDFs
Goetia: The Lesser Key of Solomon: Direct | Alt.
Dictionnaire Infernal Demonographia: Direct | Alt.
Easton's Bible Dictionary: Direct | Alt.
Pseudomonarchia Daemonum: Direct | Alt.
All from HERE.
I also recommend taking a look around TheOccult.bz [if registration is open] for a ton of interesting PDFs, movies, and other stuff from Mythology and Alchemy to Astrology and Shamanism and everything in between XD I'd post torrents but apparently the way they're processed only the registered user who downloads the torrent can use it [it's weird, don't ask ^^;]

*EDIT* Added Sept. 8, '09
Devil Survivor - an image consisting of every [obtainable] demon's profile page in English.

Other
SMT Dictionary - Has a huge amount of entries on demons and stuff. You might need a couple of decent translator sites to get the full effect of the details sometimes though XD

I also own some RL art/guide books and some of those fan anthologies, I'll write up a list of what they are later, but here are the pics ^^;
JP Guidebooks | JP Comics & SMTIII Guidebook | JP Comics | Stack of all books | Misc. Art books & SMT:Khan English manga

Also, if anyone has anything else to add, post it here! :D And enjoy! :3

Yea, there's is plenty of fake crap on the 'net, though the url http://new.atlusnet.jp/img/ gives a 403, not a 404 [but the actual picture url listed on the blogger's site does go 404]. Using something like "img" as your sub-folder is so...default XD at least add the game title abbreviation to it or something XD

Oh yea, that video compass thing was bloody annoying. Good thing I only had it on my laptop. The other program wasn't so bad though [I only used it to upload though XD]
Edited the first post to encompass all important stuff in the lengthy text walls of this thread :p I'll go see if I can throw this link around as many places as I can think of [which isn't really all that much actually ^^;]

Atlus has revealed a new teaser website of what appears to be the next Megaten game, Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey. Showing a picture of Earth with the South Pole imploding and showing messages like: "This is a soldier's hand. It's trustworthy.", "For us, it's 'hope'!", "Don't lose sight of yourself!", "You came here from a rich country just to die?", "For the future of mankind, let's both hold our ground!", "South Pole".

A Japanese blogger was able to grab what seems to be the logo of the game, from the page's source code before Atlus removed it.

Atlus will reveal more about this game on July 24th, 2009 and, supposedly, it will be released on October 8th, 2009 for Japan. But the lack of the most important details have left us hanging; will it be a spin-off? a sequel? what genre? and for what console?

Just changed a couple things for "flow" and made the link go to the site instead of the swf ^^; Also, a person who "blogs" is a "blogger" right? XD

Dang, Emilio beat me to it~ :p
Well I want to know what's up with that font they chose to use XD It reminds me of a mix of the Jurassic Park and Star Wars font-types XD Here's hoping it's SMT for real and not another Devil Survivor/spin-off [though I would play another Devil Children game :p That's probably *only* just me though XD]

Oh, Emilio, your link to the game's website leads straight to the swf file on the site, not the site itself; not sure if that was intentional or not though ^^; I'll do a quick read through now and see if it needs any touch-ups :3

*edit* October 8th? not August 10th? XD [this is why I like months written out when writing the date, any days in them less than 13 confuses me XD]

*edit edit* that's it! It's an SMT game in space with dinosaurs! XD Okay, maybe not, but I think that could be cool if done right :p it's probably the ozone layer that's been depleted from all those old fridges leaking CFCs or something and now demons are invading XD

Nighttime is when torrents really start to move, because access providers usually allow customers more bandwidth in the middle of the night when the internet is not so congested

I've always found that theory to be flawed as it's *always* nighttime somewhere in the world :p I would keep my computer on but it makes too much noise [I can't sleep ^^; My computer is in my bedroom, lol]. I turn it on as soon as I get out of bed and leave it on all day though. What's up with your connection? I have the port open in this end but it's going so slow o.O You have a firewall or something?

Yea, not sure where to spread the word though, other than somewhere in the veoh movie descriptions ^^;
Also, it might not be connècted all the tume because I turn off my computer when I go to bed ^^;

I think it encompasses most of the SMT games up until Nocturne; the artwork is probably what Kaneko derived the demons from and/or what they're more "traditionally" portrayed as? I think there's even a section for demon geography [where they originated from XD]
And I bet I could probably get it cheaper through a yahoo japan auction service or something; that seller started off great [lots of $1 auctions] but now they overprice [used] books and then overcharge the shipping too ;>> If I'm going to invest in a book that big, [almost 600 pages,] I want a shiny new copy XD Though for some reason I can't stand to rip apart books like that; which means if I was going to undertake a scanning venture I'd need 2 copies ^^;;
I do remember seeing another encyclopedia, for SMT2 I think, lots of pictures, stats and stuff [I can't remember where I found it though ^^;]

$100 Wow, that's too much for me. Thanks for the link, though. Well, Tatsuya's figurine is in "coming soon", so I'll probably wait to see if the price is affordable.

oh, wait! Assembly Required and Painting Required? They're putting things more difficult for me.

Yea, the only thing keeping me from considering those; I can't paint [well, I probably could, just not too well XD] There were also some DDS2 figures as well, I didn't even know those existed! o.O [No Dyaus though -_-]

Also, THIS ebay auction shows a bunch of pages from the Demon Encyclopedia book [but now they want $90+ CAD for it when they clearly state the cover price in the description. Yea...no ;>>]

...It's the laptop's harddrive I think; been kicking around that thing for a couple years. I gotta get rid of it anyways [it's a school rental XD]
ANYways, I recompressed the file, but since Winace didn't crash on my desktop the file is different somehow [it doesn't pick up with the old torrent o.O] And therefore, I had to make a new one ^^; Here's hoping it works :p

Ah, I was going to post about that...my laptop seems to have died. Like, it won't start up because there's a harddrive error kind of died .__________.; I have the crappiest luck, srsly. Sorry, I'll see if I can rip it onto my desktop. but I'm low on space ^^;

Emilio, those could be limited/custom made figures, so they'd probably be really expensive if they were for sale [I think Aegis has a price tag of 10,000Y; that's about $100USD].
You could take a look HERE for Persona-related figures for sale/coming soon.


I don't have anything else new to show off [since I'm too lazy to look right now] ^^;

okay, well it crashed at 100% compression again, but let's see if this torrent will work XD It's compressed as an *.ace file [use Winace to open it]
*edit* we might have progress! ^^; Uploaded the torrent to Monova and it show up as not dead. Now to see if the file will actually transfer ;>>

I've tried compressing the file about 5 times now, the program either crashes at 100% completion [but there still something wrong with the file] or my laptop implodes ;>> I hate unnecessary file splitting though XD

I didn't even see them go up on BTjunkie o.O
I tried the ISO on my desktop, it's just stuck on connecting [like it's connected but nothing is transferring and its got the 99:99:99 time thing ;>> duh]
I'm going to compress the file [into an *.ace file] and then try re-torrent-ify-ing and see if  that works -_-;
