Do we really want to be adding these images extracted from emulated re-releases? This doesn’t have a corresponding physical release, does it?

I think it might make sense to keep these sets (even though they don't have a physical release). It's still an alternate version of the original game. But if you think it makes sense to remove those entries, I will.

Why would we not preserve digital releases for old systems? Many new ZX Spectrum games don't have a physical release, either.

It is not our intention to propagate corrupted, truncated, defaced, watermarked, or otherwise bad media images

That doesn't mean we are interested in it, period.

Zero Tolerance Underground is a new sequel with different levels and mechanics, I don't think it should be removed...
