While not a huge seller in the West, the “Fatal Frame” series was popular enough to warrant a spinoff for the 3DS called “Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir.” Much like the “Fatal Frame” games, the spinoff focused on the series’ signature Spirit Camera that can be used to fend off ghosts for mysterious reasons. “Maiden of Black Water” is the first “Fatal Frame” game since the 2008 Japanese exclusive, so the series has been dormant for quite some time. There was actually a “Fatal Frame” game that was exclusive to the Nintendo Wii back in 2008, which never got released outside Japan. The reasons for the lack of a physical release are currently unknown, though it should be noted that the “Fatal Frame” series has not sold particularly well in North America, despite having a large following.

My only suggestion would be to consider asking the authors of the HD Texture Packs for the PS2 releases if you could include those in your archive as well. I will seed the torrent as long as I can since there were none available and I had to download it via this page. I am so thankful for this archive so I can play thru all these excellent horror games again! Your attention to detail with collecting the various releases and mods is wonderful.
