Anyone has more info on this magazine and/or the discs that came with it?

Hmm thought so. Well Im getting some discs that came with this magazine soon, which said to have all kinds of homebrew stuff and apps on it..curious.

It was a Japanese mag. I once found the homepage of some Japanese publisher that had published Saturn and Playstation magazines with user programs on them, but I can't remember the name nor the site. They had complete indexes of the discs online, and judging by them the programs were music players, sprite/graphics rippers and so on. None of them seemed to run on the console hardware.

There's some info (a cover shot) on my site. It ran from 1995-1997 in Japan.

So the discs were actually PC cd rom discs? Even more interesting

If there's anything of interest I'll be sure to sent it to Iceman..

There might have been some demos on there, but I'm not even sure it's the same magazine we're talking about.

Off-topic, but what's on the second CD in your photo-CD box? Mine only has one, and there's only space for one disc in the box. The model number is the same, though.

Thats an additional disc called 'Nympheas' La Musique dex tableux celebres.

It contains art (paintings)

It's kind of an obscure magazine. MOst issues came with some demos I believe, and they were more on the homebrew side than the demo side. Take that with a grain of salt... I'm going off of memory.

I got the first disc in: Autumn '95.

I boots on a Saturn and has some playable demos (of retail games), some video interviews, some jokes done with CG art, some stand up comedian videos

and some other gameplay videos...

Althought it says 'Special CD ROM' it's NOT pc compatible.
