Has any content from the cut silver case/25w DS ports or even the mobile 25w game survived out there in the wild? All I could find were a bunch of screenshots for the former, while for the latter there's some footage of the glg chapter on youtube + a few tracks on nico nico douga & yt (a reup of one of the nnd posts). If any of you somehow managed to get your hands on some cool shit that's probably buried beneath dead links by today, please feel free to share 'em, especially mobile 25w stuff. May as well also share/discuss about cut content from other ghm/ktp games.
You can also dig forever you like with thewaybackmachine. I wanna get a hold of an actual docomo phone to have playable version of the game on hand, but that's somewhat troublesome task to complete. That one is important (and maybe that expo demo for the modern phones they had before 25W remake release in Japan).

There's a guy on twitter who claims to have the mobile version. He actually tried to contact me a while back but then he never followed through, I don't really use twitter so maybe you guys can ask him about it? https://twitter.com/S51Portugal
Anyway there's a youtube video with the mobile soundtrack, I'm not sure if it's complete.
I also happened to have the mobile version script, it doesen't seem too different from the released version but here it is if you want it. https://www.mediafire.com/file/sizfiwlh ... s.rar/file
That's a nice collection of a good amount of mobile 25w material. But why aren't there any screenshots for electride? Did that chapter have any issues or something like that?

I wanted to put this on the website but my shitty laptop finally died, so I'll have to do it when I return next week. I'm just posting this here so I don't forget.
However it's also nice to have an undeniably dated post for when the usual brave heroes of twitter will pilfer this information from me while calling me a national socialist rapist and pretending they totally found out themselves.
Anyway, this anthology manga actually has a short story called "death sentence" which was written by Suda and drawn by Kazuhiro Sasaki. (Comic Beam is the same magazine that appeared in The Silver Case, this was an anthology series meant to promote new writers.)
I "may" have found a copy of it, though the seller has to check if it's in storage. Volume 2 is remarkably easy to find, while Volume 1 (the one with Death Sentence) is quite rare. Ideally I would like to have two copies for scanning purposes but if worst comes to worst I'll just unbind my own, especially as I don't really give a shit about the rest of the volume.
This was specifically described as Suda's debut in the world of manga and considering that he got a lot more popular in the west after 2007 I doubt we're missing anything else like that.
As per other "lost media" (not for long though, we do have copies of them, the scanning situation just needs to be resolved first) that I haven't put on the site yet, Suda ran a column on both Dengeki Playstation and on Continue Magazine.
I also don't have a source for this but someone showed me a twitter thread about a re-release of frog minutes exclusive to Japan which was essentially a different game, with cartoon frogs wearing clothes and gacha elements, though I wouldn't know where to find that now
That's a nice collection of a good amount of mobile 25w material. But why aren't there any screenshots for electride? Did that chapter have any issues or something like that?
To (maybe) answer your question, as I understand it the fifth chapter of each scenario was released quite late into the game's lifespan, even though it wasn't ceased until 2011 I don't know how many people actually had compatible phones at that point https://web.archive.org/web/20170722123 ... 000001610/
If I ever run into a build of the game obviously I'll post it, I think hoarding is gay
