The footage was thought to be lost even by SEGA.
This is a digitalized version of a D2 master tape sold at a car boot sale in the United Kingdom. The digitalization was made by Oxford Duplication Centre - all localized segments made by writer/director Hiroshi Uemura and Kenji Sasaki, as well as filmed scenes of Jackson.
An extended, uncompressed cut of the full master tape can be found on the Internet Archive thanks to Gaming Alexandria, with extra Japanese version footage and sound test.
Though this tape represents the first known preservation of the main video contents of the title, ROMs for its gameplay elements, motion data, and an introductory film especially filmed by Jackson remain unarchived.
