    HI_Ricky, it's very nice indeed that you have all those nice and rare stuff.. But don't you think its useless to post huge pictures everytime it is about stuff you have?

    Dev C/C++ :-D

    Anyway, would not mind having some P*S2 SDK stuff. I had some manuals on .pdf format (remember that Antipasta? We got them from a irc channel). But my brother deleted them :angry

    Oh yes I remember. Sadly, the HD I had them on died as well :angry
    So I figure they're lost forever, but we might be able to sort something with that other disc I have if you're interested ;-)

    Oh and HI-Ricky, how come you have the N*DS and qSP (sic) SDK's already? And I'd love to see some pictures of them! Do you also have the hardware?
    :dance :boobies2 :happyhap: :ramen

    Yeah, I didn't intend for this to be a bragging thread.. I was hoping some people could help eachother "get" or use some of the software as well as comprehensively document what software comes in what packages... By this I mean: listing the disc's table of contents, file CRCs etc, a breif description of each file as well as pictures. All this stuff when finished should be compiled into another medium such as my wiki idea. This kind of stuff has to be done sometime, might as well be here to show that this board isn't a place for just smalltalk, it is supposed to be about "expensive shit." Help the community get recognition by bringing better content than "What does X Dreamcast game cost?" ;)

    Hmm. I think I may have the docs you're refering to.
    It's not the 2.7 S*K Docs is it?.

    I agree it would be handy to have all the software in the same place for people to actually use their "expensive shit" however most people who have dev kits have or can get hold of the relevant SDK to use it anyway. In many ways the software is useless to pretty much everyone else as a) they won't have the hardware b) a fair amount of software doesn't work without the hardware. What would be handy though is stripping the SDK's of usefull information for a "dev unit/software technical wiki"outlining all aspects of hardware/programming.

    well, please keep looking cheap cheap cheap.
    "cheap shit"= how long you can wait.(may be after rls 3-10year's)
    "expensive shit"= how long you can wait.(may be before rls 3week- rls 3year's)

    and plan on what you look for pay. use to develop/program it? for tech know? hacker?code?ice ?

    if the dev util just for display on you home, of coz "cheap" is better
    if the dev util for make money, of coz you not care it "expensive"

    but for me. under officel price, it ready is "cheap", like after 3 year.
    dev util no one want buy over offical price (but you a seller,you want sell it under cost?). and UNDER OFFICAL PRICE CAN CALL EXPENSIVE ?

    Yes Ricky under or close the the office price is high :smt083 Official prices are to developers which includes the license to use it aswell as technical support. For collectors, we don't have the large bank balance of a company to pay for the SDK, nor does it come with the license or technical support hehe. No license + no technical support + not very rich customers = low price :smt045

    Sooo... for a little bump, does anyone know of any GB(C) tools AT ALL? Considering how the system has been in use for more than 10 years, there must have been some official stuff leaked.

    I'd like copies of documents for: SNES, GB and GG

    Anyone have any sources? I have an ancient 1991 scene-released SNES doc, but I'd like something more up to date. 1994 is a good age.

    Has anyone spotted official WS and NGP(C) docs? (Not that they're very necessary for those consoles)


    I'd encourage people to post back here what documents people know exist for past generation consoles

    Is there SDK for NGPC/GBC? There must be? If not, how do 3rd party developers get the information to make games?

    Very cool about the WS/NGPC dev w/ video out, I've never heard/seen it. Sometime you should post pictures (not this thread) ;)

    Might as well ask as well:

    Anyone got some D5 *DK or docs they can share? interested to see how far removed from the native GBA it is. That and wouldn't mind having a play with some code.
