VHD Interactive Game
Video High Density - Japanese Video Disc Format
The word “Game” is doing a lot of lifting here
Disc has 99 Chapters, BIG Map has 99 Markers & you have to pair them together to solve the puzzle
Each Chapter is a clip of Yokohama
If you’ve never heard of it, VHD is the Japanese Rip Off (let’s be honest) of CED. But VHD actually works & is rather good
Interesting article from ITV Content Services on the risks & need to preserve various Tape & Film Media
In a bit of absolutely shameless promotion, if you’ve got Media you need Archiving, we can help

Coloured LaserDisc
Evil Dead II - NTSC on Red Disc
Not aware of any other LDs pressed on Coloured Disc
Its very flimsy Poly, feels very soft & lite
Plays fine as you’d expect
Anyone know of any others?
@LaserdiscTurtle
You lot do like LaserDisc don’t you.
This is want happens when @foone Telepathically communicates with my LaserJuke
It only seems to play one tune…..
@foone it’s Rick Astley on Betamax isn’t it😉
eBay purchase has arrived
Who doesn’t love a “Blue Coloured Vinyl Record” 🤫
@kaia yes, LaserDisc. Not watched it yet. Thinking it’s an Expo Demo Disc.
