Just wondering why these games are so difficult to track down. According to the copyright status page, the only Wizardry title still being sold is something called Nemesis... all the rest show up as abandonware.

I was able to locate the PC Booter disk images on Retrograde Station (LINK), but I was hoping to find the updated versions that came in the Ultimate Wizardry Archives, that can be run from a directory. (Ctrl-F4 to swap disks in DOSBox gets to be a pain.) Most abandonware sites I have checked for these games start with Wizardry 7 / Wizardry Gold, a couple have 6. Doesn't seem to be much interest in them at all, which surprises me.

Anyone have any additional info on these titles?

(On a somewhat related note, I have an original disk copy of Wizardry 6 "Bane of the Cosmic Forge" kicking around, that I am happy to share with this site -- I have sent a note via the contact form.)
