platinum.7z was a leaked archive containing data obtained in the Zammis Clark Breach, including the source code for Pokémon Platinum. It was leaked to /ppg/ on September 9, 2020, alongside two other archives, from_Nintendo.rar, and generic.7z.

Mostly everything in this leak had a "Date Modified" of March 18, 2018. This date is from the same known period of time that Zammis Clark had access to Nintendo's files, which lasted from around March 2018 to May 2018.

Similar to other.7z, this was an archive containing seven more archives inside.

Sub-archives

20090512.rar

Looking at the contents of 20090512.rar, it can be assumed that these files were originally supposed to be a part of something like from_Nintendo.rar, an email dump containing files sent from Nintendo to iQue. 20090512.rar contains what seems to be a dump of an iQue Wii Startup Disc, along with other data and information.
