Discussion / Re: TheWall.de is closing soon

Wayback machine while the 1st thing, it has a bad habit of missing images as Ive found out the hard way on many captures.  Even parts of my own site are missing in wayback captures which is why im making a site archive soon.   I talked to another person who sent out an email to the owner of wall but has not gotten reply yet.   May try WinHHTrack tool soon if there is no other better things.

What about Wayback Machine? There are tons of other web archives around, like archive.is or WebCite. Wikipedia has a lot of useful articles on that matter, like these two:

Is there any archiving methods or tools that can be used to preserve this?  There is also a large forum attached too.  There is a ton of good stuff here

Just finished Grandia 2. If you like JRPG's and want to try probably the best battle system out there, give it a go. 2 is on Steam in a remastered version, no Dreamcast needed and 3 is on PSN. They improved the combat system but the story is pretty bland.

I'd call Grandia 2 the Chrono Trigger of the Dreamcast.
