Nishinomiya Konomi Megapack

To understand the Megapack, one must first understand its subject: Konomi Nishinomiya. A fictional multimedia character originating in the late 1990s, Nishinomiya was the mascot of a now-defunct amusement park and shopping complex in Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. For a decade, she appeared in a bewildering array of formats: a handful of obscure PlayStation 1 visual novels, a series of digital trading card games for Windows 98, a short-lived mobile web game on i-mode phones, and numerous promotional DVD-ROMs featuring screensavers, wallpapers, and simple flash mini-games. When the park closed in 2010, the rights to the character were scattered among three bankrupt holding companies, a retired game designer, and a local temple that owned the land. For nearly a decade, Nishinomiya’s digital footprint was a scattered archipelago of corrupted data, incompatible formats, and vanishing servers.
