Pink Sweets Gaiden: Taisen! Rose Sisters (ピンクスゥイーツ外伝 対戦！ローズシスターズ) was preserved by @yuvi.app last year! Previously lost to time, this was CAVE's keitai-exclusive prequel spinoff to its Pink Sweets schmup. The game also let you fight other players via online rankings.

Today, the #Sega Alarm Clock Sound Sample was preserved! This app is dated to 2004, and it let you download Sega alarm melodies. There was even an online ranking of the most popular melodies! Unfortunately, our copy doesn't have any saved melodies, but you can browse the app.

Last year, LNRC partially preserved CROWS x WORST, a beat-'em-up keitai game based on the eponymous manga series. Today, @yuvi.app created a server, which made it playable for the first time! The game heavily relied on server data, so our copy is a small portion of the full game.

Gundam VS Fighting Spirits Plus, which was preserved last year, is finally playable thanks to @yuvi.app! The game needed a server to function properly. This may be the best keitai fighting game we've preserved so far. It runs incredibly smoothly for a keitai game.

Keitai World Launcher has been updated to Ver. B0.8! ✅ New home screen with five random featured games and a list of recent additions ✅ Redirection of SIMPLE100 URLs

I finally beat #Rockman: The Puzzle Battle! This was preserved last year. The Wily bosses are brutally difficult, but the music remixes are nice. I'm playing on the English patch created by Penguinstrain, Yuvi, and Muttvil. Full video footage can be found in the replies!

Dokodemo Chocobo 1 and 2 are now playable! Released in 2002, these are standby keitai apps and dungeon crawlers! Cuebus preserved them last year. They utilize Mitsubishi's proprietary Z3D graphics engine. The original Z3D plugin is lost, but Irdkwia recreated it with Mesa 3D!

#MAGFest: I've spent 2.5 years preserving games from Japanese feature phones with a small online group, mostly isolated, trying to convince people that these games are important. It feels like, finally, people understand. Words cannot describe how great it feels. Thank you for the opportunity ❤️

Are you at MAGFest? Want to try some preserved keitai games? You're in luck! Come to the Museum/LAN Room and look for @unabandonware.bsky.social's table with 20+ Japanese feature phones! Unabandonware is one of the foremost keitai game preservationists, and she'd love to tell you all about them!

2025 has been an incredible year for keitai game preservation! Your continued support for this small part of gaming history has meant the world to me, so thank you! Here are some year-end preservation statistics from Keitai World Launcher. Here's to an amazing 2026!

Keitai World Launcher now includes the Free-J2MEPlus emulator, which supports EZplus Java games! You can play preserved EZweb games like #Tetris Outdoor, which features Linda from Stretch Panic... an unexpected crossover! KWL will have more EZweb game integrations in the future.

After some SD card bruteforcing, the downloaded i-mode trial of Professor Layton and the Curious Village was preserved by @unabandonware.bsky.social and @yuvi.app ! Unlike the preloaded i-mode trial, this contains all of chapter 1 and is closer to the original DS game (voice acting, cutscenes).

The complete i-mode port of Mushihimesama Futari was preserved earlier this year by @YuviApp! Like the rest of CAVE's i-mode games, it runs surprisingly well on the limited hardware. My longer gameplay video can be found in the replies.

The 2005 i-mode port of IQ Intelligent Cube was preserved by NaoyaShinota! The game was originally released by Sony for the first PlayStation. This is a pretty faithful port to the original game, minus the orchestral soundtrack.

Gameplay of Moba UFO, a 3D racing i-mode game that's now playable thanks to Yuvi's Mobage server revival! It tries (and fails) to save ghost data after a race. This and other online functionality will be revived later. It's amazing to see how far we've come with preserving server-based i-mode games.

Gameplay of Ayane-chan Panic, an i-mode freeware game from 2003! Preserved by Cuebus last week, it has some impressive platforming and wall climbing mechanics! It's always fun to highlight these smaller, more overlooked pieces of keitai gaming history.

Dozens of i-mode games with Mobage and GREE server functionality have been revived, thanks to @yuvi.app! Many are score attack variants of games like Galaga and Taiko no Tatsujin. In the near future, Mobage/GREE leaderboards will be viewable on the Keitai Archive website.

Earlier this year, WN3DL and Kraze preserved Chokkan ☆ Shutokō Battle (C1 Loop)! Released in 2007, the game originally required you to tilt the phone to steer the car, but MemoryHunter was able to hack the game to use keypad controls. The game runs surprisingly well!

Earlier this year, LNRC preserved #Rockman 4's i-mode port! Similar to Rockman X's i-mode port, it contains a ranking mode where users compete for high scores in each stage. We haven't gotten around to reviving Rockman 4's ranking mode yet, but we have for Rockman X.

Several previously-lost Capcom i-mode minigames were preserved by @yuvi.app! Some highlights: - Breath of Daifugo (based on Breath of Fire IV) - Rival Schools: Table Tennis Club - Glory of Athens (three minigames made for the 2004 Athens Olympics)

I-mode leaderboards are now on the Keitai Archive website! Now you can easily check leaderboards for FFVII Snowboarding, Rockman X, and future i-mode games with revived leaderboards. To join in, go to "Get Network UID" in Keitai World Launcher and follow the instructions.

Thanks to @aid1043.bsky.social and Penguinstrain, Columns Jewel has an English patch! This was a #Columns keitai game that was preserved last year. It has a story mode, where Sana travels back in time after wearing a mysterious bracelet. There's also a puzzle mode with 40 puzzles!

We've found plenty of keitai freeware games, but "Super Merio" has shown up on multiple devices. As the name suggests, it's a Mario clone. Released in 2001, it's one of the earliest pieces of keitai freeware that we've preserved. It has two sequels (?) and even a spinoff called "Dr. Merio."

Gameplay of THE Skydiving, a keitai game released in 2009. This was preserved by LNRC earlier this month. You try to skydive to the ground as fast as possible, dodging missiles and passing through fellow skydivers in the process!

Cuebus preserved DoDonPuchi Zero (ドドンプチ零) and a trial version of DoDonPuchi (ドドンプチ)! Released in 2003, DoDonPuchi Zero was CAVE's first original shooter for keitai. Both were lost to time until now! DoDonPuchi Zero's soundtrack was composed by Namiki Manabu.

Biohazard: The Episodes was preserved by @yuvi.app! Lost to time until today, this mission-based game was based on Biohazard 3. It appears to be the full game, minus extra characters. We have now preserved at least partial copies of all three keitai-exclusive 3D #Biohazard games!

ICYMI, after 7 months of work, @aid1043.bsky.social finished their English translation patch for all eight Kingdom Hearts Mobile keitai minigames! Preserved last year, this patch even contains recreations of cut content, like bonus puzzles and downloadable cards! (Video credit to Aid)

After 7 months of work, my latest project: a full English patch of Kingdom Hearts Mobile! You can play all 8 of these previously-lost mini-games, in English for the first time. There's puzzle games, card games, rhythm games, and more, and even canon lore! More info: youtu.be/dWJEfN3W6Iw

Dokodemo Dodgeball Fantasia (どこでもドッジボ−ルファンタジア) was a dodgeball RPG released for keitai in 2006. Yes, you read that right! It's got a coming-of-age story and a real time battle system. We preserved this game earlier this year, and it's incredibly unique.

R.O.B. - Ride on the Beat!! was preserved by @yuvi.app! Released in 2005 for keitai, this is a 3D rhythm game where you ride a hoverboard and change lanes to the beat of the music. It's pretty fun! The 3D graphics are also quite good for a 2005 keitai game.

Introducing @keitaiarchive.bsky.social, a website for Japanese feature phone game preservation resources. As keitai game preservation grows, we want our tools and preserved abandonware media to be as accessible as possible. Read on for more information! (1/6)

Cuebus and I preserved Konami Wai Wai Sōkoban (コナミワイワイ倉庫番), a keitai-exclusive #Konami puzzle game! It features characters from various Konami games. A year ago, I found the phone that this game originated on, but the screen was broken. Cuebus managed to dump it today.

Thanks to Cuebus's chipoff dump of the 911T, the trial version of Armored Core Mobile 3 has been preserved! This is the SoftBank Yahoo Keitai version. Preloaded on the 911T, #ArmoredCore Mobile 3's trial lets you play through a few missions. (Video credit: @XLeonier)

DoDonPachi DaiOuJou DX Reco.ver (大往生DX-ﾚｺver.-) was preserved by Yuuku! Only sold on December 30, 2007, this is a score competition variant of DoDonPachi DaiOuJou DX. Given how it was only available for one day, this may be one of the rarest i-mode games preserved so far.

The original i-mode release of #Bomberman 3D was preserved by @yuvi.app! Released in 2004, the game has fully 3D stages with multiple elevations. Its EZweb, Yahoo Keitai, and international J2ME releases have also been preserved to various extents.

ICYMI, @yuvi.app partially preserved Biohazard: The Operations, a previously-lost Biohazard keitai game! It heavily relied on missing SD card data, but Yuvi painstakingly recreated the data from scratch, resulting in all missions and online leaderboards being functional! (1/2)

Cuebus and @yuvi.app preserved Space Invaders x Pac Man! Available for only a month in 2005, this crossover game was exclusive to i-mode and lost to time until today! The Pac Man ghosts are replaced with Space Invader enemies, among other minor changes.

Biohazard: The Operations Recovered from an F904i I recently acquired. I had to create a server and recreate the whole Spencer Mansion one scene at a time! The game is 95% complete! We made a partial English patch thanks to @snowyaria.bsky.social, @shentok.com, and myself youtu.be/hC1VyUFzqCA

Yuuku preserved Mushihimesama Gaiden (虫姫さま外伝), a keitai-exclusive spinoff of CAVE's #Mushihimesama series! You walk around and throw bombs at enemies, which is a departure from CAVE's usual bullet hell shooters.

All four chapters of Corpse Party: NewChapter were preserved by Yuuku! Released from 2006 to 2007, it is a keitai-exclusive remake of the original PC-98 game. Despite being canceled before its fifth chapter, this previously-lost game served as a base for future #CorpseParty ports.

The i-mode version of Glory of Valkyrie (ワルキューレの栄光) was preserved by Yuuku! Its Android port had been preserved, but its original keitai release had been lost until today! Earlier this year, we also preserved its keitai-exclusive sequel, The Glory of Valkyrie 2.

This is Wild Land, a keitai game made for the F-04B, a device that can split in two. Utilizing Wii-like motion controls, it's a keitai game like no other! While it was preserved last year, its motion controls can't be properly emulated yet.

The first chapter of Edotan (えどたん) was preserved by 2Soulz! Originally released on keitai before being ported to smartphones, Edotan is a detective visual novel by #Capcom. It takes many elements from #AceAttorney. Edotan received a keitai-exclusive sequel, which remains lost to time.

Chase H.Q. 3D was partially preserved by @yuvi.app last year! Originally released for keitai in 2005, this was a 3D conversion of the original #Taito arcade game. Our i-mode copy is Episode 0, and we also have a trial of the Yahoo Keitai version. The full game still remains lost.

Did you know that Elevator Action received two FPS games on keitai? Released in 2005, Elevator Action Real was a 3D conversion of the original arcade game. Its sequel, Elevator Action Real 2, has you play as a ghost hunter! Both games remain lost to time. Longer gameplays below!

Last year, the trial version of DoDonPachi's i-mode port was preserved. It includes the first stage. The game runs surprisingly well for the hardware it was released on! The DoJa 5.1 SDK has performance issues when multiple sounds play at once, so my gameplay has SFX turned off.

Earlier this year, the i-mode port of Detana!! #Twinbee was preserved by an anonymous user! Due to space constraints, the game was split into two apps. Both apps are preserved. Considering the platform, this is a very good port!

Bomberman: Disney Stitch Edition, a previously-lost #Bomberman spinoff game, was preserved by @unabandonware.bsky.social! This was a Flash game released exclusively for i-mode keitai. It is themed to the Stitch anime series, with power-ups being represented by pineapples and hibiscuses.

Thanks to some lucky keitai junk lots from @yuvi.app, over 60 keitai games were preserved over the past few days! My video has some highlights: - Metal Claw, a Virtual On i-mode clone from 2004 - POP'N BALL, a freeware (?) platformer with cute sprites - Lots of tactics RPGs, like Neo Deserters
