May 30, 2015 at 2:11 PM - 7Force: the search is over, we've finally found the one person who wants to buy anything nvidia shield related
May 30, 2015 at 2:13 PM - Sephirothkefka: Is that a problem?
May 30, 2015 at 2:13 PM - 7Force: not really, just don't really get why anyone would buy an nvidia shield
May 30, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Sephirothkefka: i have the portable and the tablet
May 30, 2015 at 2:15 PM - Sephirothkefka: the latter i use everyday

May 30, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Sephirothkefka:
May 30, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Sephirothkefka: whats wrong with android tablets?
May 30, 2015 at 2:19 PM - 7Force: shitty battery life like everything with android
May 30, 2015 at 2:20 PM - Sephirothkefka: its definitely not too terribly bad
May 30, 2015 at 2:21 PM - Sephirothkefka: i can say its worse than the note 3 but not by much
May 30, 2015 at 2:37 PM - Sephirothkefka: At least its better than the shitty ipad
May 30, 2015 at 2:37 PM - 7Force: ipads have a ridiculously good battery life, which is pretty much all i want from a tablet or other mobile device
May 30, 2015 at 2:40 PM - Sephirothkefka: i swiched from an ipad 3 to that
May 30, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Sephirothkefka: the ipad laster a lot longer but ios 8 butchered it
May 30, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Sephirothkefka: made it so much slower
May 30, 2015 at 2:41 PM - Sephirothkefka: slower than my vita which has the same specs
May 30, 2015 at 2:41 PM - 7Force: ios 8 is kind of bad, but still not as bad as android
May 30, 2015 at 2:42 PM - Sephirothkefka: android is more open and better
May 30, 2015 at 2:42 PM - 7Force: on my android phone most of the apps will leave a process open and drain the battery
May 30, 2015 at 2:42 PM - 7Force: plus there's the infamous media server glitch
May 30, 2015 at 2:42 PM - Sephirothkefka: AND THAT PHONE IS?
May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Sephirothkefka: whoops
May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - 7Force: samsung galaxy s 3
May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Sephirothkefka: caps was on
May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Sephirothkefka: thats the problem
May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Sephirothkefka: its too old

 

May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - Sephirothkefka: a s6 or note 4 is more capable
May 30, 2015 at 2:43 PM - 7Force: it's not even two years old
May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - 7Force: and fuck buying new phones every year
May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - SILENT_Pavel: there is "CyanogenMod" for android devices, it will save the battery. factory android firmwares usually is shi~
May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - Sephirothkefka: but the specs are still underpowered
May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - Sephirothkefka: lollipop is good
May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - Sephirothkefka: thanks project volta
May 30, 2015 at 2:44 PM - 7Force: if i had to buy a new android it'd be oneplus one without a doubt
May 30, 2015 at 2:45 PM - 7Force: it's still pretty fast and good enough for the things i use it for
May 30, 2015 at 2:45 PM - Sephirothkefka: soon oneplus two is coming
May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Sephirothkefka: wait..
May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Sephirothkefka: what carrier are you on?
May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - BamBoo: Deez nuts
May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - 7Force: a european one
May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Sephirothkefka: ok
May 30, 2015 at 2:46 PM - Sephirothkefka: know the model?
May 30, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Sephirothkefka: its like gt-ixxxx
May 30, 2015 at 2:47 PM - Sephirothkefka: xxxx=anumber or number-letter combination
May 30, 2015 at 2:47 PM - 7Force: i9305
May 30, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Sephirothkefka: exynos 4 quad
May 30, 2015 at 2:48 PM - Sephirothkefka: decent little thing
May 30, 2015 at 2:49 PM - Sephirothkefka: but at 1.4 ghz is still a bit slow compared to my note 3's 2.23 GHZ clock and the shields 2.3 GHz
May 30, 2015 at 2:50 PM - Sephirothkefka: apparently exynos socs have ceva dsps
May 30, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: tera though...
May 30, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: *tegra
May 30, 2015 at 2:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: that uses an arm7 lol
May 30, 2015 at 6:57 PM - PutinHuilo:
May 30, 2015 at 8:39 PM - nilats: lolipop broke my oneplus one's bluetooth because I have a japanese model car and there is bug with drivers !! !
May 30, 2015 at 9:15 PM - LordFenixNC: anyone have a Nvidia Shield android TV?
May 30, 2015 at 9:15 PM - LordFenixNC: would love to know if you can root one
May 30, 2015 at 9:33 PM - ToxicMedz: you have a Oneplus too? Mine freaked out the other day and lost all my custom settings. had to reapply all my skins and wallpaper
May 30, 2015 at 9:35 PM - ToxicMedz: I wasnt impressed with the lolipop update. honestly
May 30, 2015 at 9:49 PM - Sephirothkefka: Maybe because its cyanogenmod?
May 30, 2015 at 9:50 PM - Sephirothkefka: Or poorly optimized?
May 30, 2015 at 11:53 PM - Gemini: cyanogen is that bad? :O

 

May 31, 2015 12:51 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I got an iPhone 6 recently. I love it.
May 31, 2015 1:16 AM - ToxicMedz: cynogenmod is excellent. not sure where you got that from
May 31, 2015 2:33 AM - gaming247: My phone is a little old (galaxy s4) and I really don't like the lollipop update either. Many of the custom notification options are gone. I'm hoping they are added back in a patch.
May 31, 2015 3:43 AM - Sephirothkefka: IPhone...
May 31, 2015 3:43 AM - Sephirothkefka: Ewww...
May 31, 2015 3:43 AM - Sephirothkefka: One time I found an iPhone 4 in a fucking gutter
May 31, 2015 3:44 AM - Sephirothkefka: It was the sickest thing I ever saw...
May 31, 2015 3:44 AM - Sephirothkefka: I pucked in my mouth and became very VERY uneasy...
May 31, 2015 3:44 AM - Sephirothkefka: I'll be back in a few hours
May 31, 2015 3:45 AM - Sephirothkefka: Played WAAY too much God of War III
May 31, 2015 3:45 AM - Sephirothkefka: So... GN
May 31, 2015 3:45 AM - Sephirothkefka: 3-4 he's worth I might add
May 31, 2015 3:45 AM - Sephirothkefka: *hours
May 31, 2015 3:49 AM - DeChief: Nice. I just played a few hours of Link to the Past for the first time, it's great.
May 31, 2015 3:51 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I'll never understand the irrational hatred some people have for Apple products
May 31, 2015 3:54 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Usually accompanied by a very minimal understanding of the products themselves
May 31, 2015 3:55 AM - pwl: I don't hate apple products they make really nice stuff, I do find it really overpriced though
May 31, 2015 3:56 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: "Overpriced" depends on what you want in a device
May 31, 2015 3:56 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: The iPhone is pretty similarly priced to other comparable Android phones
May 31, 2015 3:56 AM - pwl: Not here in the UK it's not
May 31, 2015 3:57 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Macs tend to be expensive, but that's mostly because they're high end machines
May 31, 2015 3:58 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I don't know about the UK. In the US the price is about the same as other Android phones.
May 31, 2015 3:58 AM - pwl: For the same money you can get a much more powerful pc at the same price here
May 31, 2015 3:59 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I guess so, but Macs have other advantages beyond just processing power
May 31, 2015 3:59 AM - pwl: Paying for the Apple logo it the same hardware on the inside.
May 31, 2015 4:00 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: That's not exactly true
May 31, 2015 4:02 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Macs have things like Thunderbolt and Thunderbolt 2, which most PCs don't have, MagSafe, PCI-E based SSD (which still isn't very common in PCs), and other stuff
May 31, 2015 4:03 AM - pwl: PC is definitely a better choice for gaming. Macs have awesome music production software, my friend use a mac mimi to make music and it way ahead of the PC stuff
May 31, 2015 4:04 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: True. I have a PC too, by the way
May 31, 2015 4:05 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: The other reason to own a Mac is OS X. Some people don't like it (probably because it's "different"), some people love it. Personally I've become so used to it that everything else seems like shit by comparison
May 31, 2015 4:06 AM - DeChief: Apple is all about presentation and ego, but when it comes down to specific usability, they often fail to do what competitors can.
May 31, 2015 4:07 AM - pwl: I find OS X a pain to use, mostly because I've been using Windows since the mid 90s
May 31, 2015 4:07 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: That's something people say a lot which is basically false. Apple is about presentation and function.
May 31, 2015 4:08 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: That's how I see it, anyway
May 31, 2015 4:08 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I find Windows a pain to use for the same reason

 

May 31, 2015 at 4:08 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: even though it used to be my primary OS
May 31, 2015 at 4:09 AM - DeChief: Windows couldn't be simpler. I find shortcuts on OSX too finicky, but on System 7 they were great.
May 31, 2015 at 4:09 AM - pwl: I'm still using Windows 7, 8 is a mess
May 31, 2015 at 4:10 AM - DeChief: 8 is fine, I don't know why anyone's complaining.
May 31, 2015 at 4:10 AM - DeChief: I have it on the laptop I'm using right now.
May 31, 2015 at 4:11 AM - pwl: Just don't like the tablet interface on a desktop
May 31, 2015 at 4:11 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Windows is okay, it's just that certain aspects of it seem poorly designed/poorly thought out
May 31, 2015 at 4:12 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: it's great for gaming. It does have that advantage
May 31, 2015 at 4:12 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: there are certain things that are a lot easier to do on a Mac than in Windows
May 31, 2015 at 4:14 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I like Linux more than Windows, and I like OS X more than either of them
May 31, 2015 at 4:14 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Linux and OS X are similar in a lot of ways
May 31, 2015 at 4:17 AM - HEX1GON: People don't like change, that's why.
May 31, 2015 at 4:17 AM - HEX1GON: when you get used to W8 it's just fine
May 31, 2015 at 4:17 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I'm still using Windows 7 on my PC
May 31, 2015 at 4:18 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I might upgrade to 10 once it's officially released
May 31, 2015 at 4:19 AM - pwl: That's the thing you should have to get used to it, it should be intuitive if it's designed well
May 31, 2015 at 4:20 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: It should be intuitive, but no matter what you still have to learn
May 31, 2015 at 4:20 AM - DeChief: You can just disable the tablet shit on Win. 8 lol
May 31, 2015 at 4:21 AM - pwl: Now you can you couldn't when it was first released
May 31, 2015 at 4:21 AM - DeChief: Mine boots straight into the desktop. And you don't even need the start menu, Windows+Q is mapped to the fantastic search function.
May 31, 2015 at 4:21 AM - DeChief: I got mine pretty much on release, I'm using some kind of third party app that does it for me.
May 31, 2015 at 4:22 AM - DeChief: It's faster and sleeker than Windows 7.
May 31, 2015 at 4:22 AM - pwl: If you need a third party app to make it good that says it all
May 31, 2015 at 4:25 AM - DeChief: Um, it works, so I don't know what there is to complain about? That's like saying Androids are shit because you need to root them to have the full experience.
May 31, 2015 at 4:26 AM - LeHaM: Windows 8 sucks :/ I installed 8.1 pro a little while back, Have to do a re-install every week or two.. huge pain.. If I plug in my DVD drive it kills the OS and unplugging it doesn't help... once its dead its dead
May 31, 2015 at 4:26 AM - HEX1GON: I haven't upgraded to W8 because I don't want to, it's still supported
May 31, 2015 at 4:27 AM - LeHaM: can't wait for W10
May 31, 2015 at 4:28 AM - 7Force: you don't have to use a third party app to boot W8 to desktop
May 31, 2015 at 4:30 AM - 7Force: only thing i use the start screen for is app shortcuts
May 31, 2015 at 4:30 AM - pwl: It looks like windows 10 will fix the problems with 8, I'll upgraded when its out
May 31, 2015 at 4:31 AM - 7Force: and even those you could pin to the taskbar, i just don't like having the taskbar full of icons
May 31, 2015 at 4:32 AM - pwl: The tablet apps on a desktop just don't work for me, can't even use Skype in a window is so broken
May 31, 2015 at 4:34 AM - LeHaM: you will be able to use app in window mode in W10, don't know why MS wont let you in W8
May 31, 2015 at 4:34 AM - pwl: Just googled looks like they fixed Skype can have it in a window now
May 31, 2015 at 4:35 AM - 7Force: you don't have to use the modern apps

 

May 31, 2015 at 4:35 AM - 7Force: don't know why anyone would, really
May 31, 2015 at 4:36 AM - pwl: I've not used windows 8 in a long time maybe should give it another try, looks like they have fixed a lot of stuff
May 31, 2015 at 4:37 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Windows 10 will be out soon, so I'll probably just wait for that. I have a legitimate copy of Windows 7, so 10 should be free
May 31, 2015 at 4:38 AM - 7Force: i never used the original 8, so a lot of the things people complained about are probably lost on me since 8.1 had a lot of fixes
May 31, 2015 at 4:38 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Though Windows isn't my primary OS. I just use it for gaming and virtually nothing else. If that were not the case, I might feel differently about upgrading.
May 31, 2015 at 4:39 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Windows, for me, is just a glorified game loader
May 31, 2015 at 5:04 AM - LeHaM: @ la-li-lu-le-lo Do you use a vanilla windows OS or a fully stripped down one with some sort of game loading front end?
May 31, 2015 at 5:13 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: No, I was sort of joking about it being a game loader. It's just a normal Windows 7 installation
May 31, 2015 at 5:16 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I just meant that I use it pretty much exclusively for gaming, and if it were not for the gaming aspect I probably wouldn't use it at all
May 31, 2015 at 5:18 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Interesting thing about PC games: they used to make games that included both the PC and Mac versions on the same disc
May 31, 2015 at 5:19 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Starcraft was like this, for example. I also found a copy of Future Cop L.A.P.D. that was like that
May 31, 2015 at 6:07 AM - yzb37859365: test
May 31, 2015 at 6:48 AM - DeChief: I can't wait for Windows 10 because it supports the Raspberry Pi 2, and it'll just be infinitely better in compatibility for arcade emulation.
May 31, 2015 at 6:50 AM - 7Force: the raspberry pi 2 version will be a severely stripped down edition
May 31, 2015 at 6:51 AM - DeChief: But it'll be able to run exes right? That's all I want, the ability to run a fucking exe and not have to unzip tars and all this other bullshit.
May 31, 2015 at 6:56 AM - 7Force: i don't know, to be honest
May 31, 2015 at 7:30 AM - Mord.Fustang: not sure if you're still around but they still make games with mac + windows on one disc.. sims 3 for example
May 31, 2015 at 7:38 AM - DeChief: not many though
May 31, 2015 at 7:54 AM - cabbage: went to a con outside of seoul today, had a nice haul
May 31, 2015 at 8:00 AM - DeChief: nice, what did you get?
May 31, 2015 at 8:03 AM - cabbage: http://pce.lifeabroad.org/foo/haul1.jpg some randoms and a few i've been on the lookout for
May 31, 2015 at 8:03 AM - LeHaM: whats the cup?
May 31, 2015 at 8:05 AM - DeChief: looks like megaman
May 31, 2015 at 8:05 AM - DeChief: nice stuff btw, gimme dat bomberman
May 31, 2015 at 8:08 AM - cabbage: cup was a free promo for item for the show
May 31, 2015 at 8:16 AM - LeHaM:
May 31, 2015 at 8:22 AM - DeChief: nice
May 31, 2015 at 8:24 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I see Neo Bomberman. Nice. I really need to get some more MVS games.
May 31, 2015 at 8:31 AM - cabbage: i just missed out on some other nice mvs titles too
May 31, 2015 at 8:57 AM - DeChief: MVS games are hella cheap here, I nearly bought all the KOF games for 1500 yen the other day.
May 31, 2015 at 9:47 AM - demon: I've noticed japan is cheap on a lot of stuff. Shame I live in the UK lol.
May 31, 2015 at 9:50 AM - kylethedude:
May 31, 2015 at 10:07 AM - demon: http://www.neowin.net/news/woman-unknowingly-dumps-a-200k-worth-apple-i-at-recycling-plant
May 31, 2015 at 10:21 AM - DeChief: I would KILL for an Apple I
May 31, 2015 at 10:21 AM - DeChief: Hell, I would kill for a decently priced Apple II!

 

May 31, 2015 at 10:23 AM - demon: I'm not really a fan of the older stuff. Oldest I have is a commodore 16 and I only have that as it was free >.<
May 31, 2015 at 10:25 AM - DeChief: Sell it?
May 31, 2015 at 10:26 AM - demon: Too lazy to uhm "dig" my way to it. Still a struggle to get in that room as it is lol.
May 31, 2015 at 10:28 AM - DeChief: If you can ship to Tokyo I'd be legitimately interested lol
May 31, 2015 at 10:30 AM - demon: Being honest I dn't even know if it works I just stuck it away with the rest of the stuff I never use. would have to try it before if I did sell
May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - DeChief: right
May 31, 2015 at 10:46 AM - demon: By the way, If anybody has any links to ebay sellers selling fake games/scamming etc please PM me I've started a site to list them all.
May 31, 2015 at 10:47 AM - DeChief: Really? Link me!
May 31, 2015 at 10:49 AM - demon: I haven't posted anything on it yet but the link is: http://auctionscams.net it has a link to submit scammers info which is emailed of site/server for protection
May 31, 2015 at 10:50 AM - demon: Didn't use the ebay name because I don't feel like being sued just yet haha.
May 31, 2015 at 10:57 AM - DeChief: Nice, that'll come in handy! I'd suggest looking at the hall of shame here, as well as Nintendo Age's hall of shame
May 31, 2015 at 10:58 AM - demon: Thought about that just been busy last few days. Not a member of NintendoAge will have to check that out as most fakes are NDS one's nowadays
May 31, 2015 at 10:59 AM - DeChief: They sure are, there's an insane amount of them.
May 31, 2015 at 10:59 AM - DeChief: NA's forums are quite a bit more active than ours here so I would say that they'd be more on top of scammers and such
May 31, 2015 at 11:01 AM - XeDK: http://www.mercurynews.com/business/ci_28221648/100-000-check-awaits-mystery-apple-i-donor
May 31, 2015 at 11:01 AM - demon: Eww that theme is so old. I'd rather just stick to here lol.
May 31, 2015 at 12:58 PM - Gemini: how is it going with the anti-scamming site?
May 31, 2015 at 1:07 PM - Sephirothkefka: What did I miss?
May 31, 2015 at 1:17 PM - Lyth: Check my post I made a Gameboy game.
May 31, 2015 at 1:19 PM - Gemini: add a few screenshots, a video and you're ready to go
May 31, 2015 at 1:20 PM - Lyth: Good idea about the screenshots.
May 31, 2015 at 1:22 PM - Gemini: chances are it'd boot fine on a real gb, given the compatibility with BGB
May 31, 2015 at 1:24 PM - Lyth: Yeah, just never know. Some flash cards can be a pain
May 31, 2015 at 1:26 PM - Lyth: Screenshots (No spoilers) added.
May 31, 2015 at 1:28 PM - Lyth: However, the screenshots are of my current unreleased version >
May 31, 2015 at 1:28 PM - demon: I got it up @Gemini just got to find some scams to list
May 31, 2015 at 1:28 PM - Gemini: even super gb border? not bad :O
May 31, 2015 at 1:30 PM - Lyth: heh
May 31, 2015 at 1:30 PM - Lyth: This game was made using very basic programming techniques. For loops, nested loops, print lines, etc.
May 31, 2015 at 1:30 PM - gladders: Hello everyone
May 31, 2015 at 1:31 PM - Lyth: Stuff you can learn in a day or two. It's proof that even basic programmers can make a "game".
May 31, 2015 at 1:32 PM - Lyth: It's basically an over glorified hello world
May 31, 2015 at 1:33 PM - Lyth: Uses a few functions as well, for printing out the menus, and returning to other menus.
May 31, 2015 at 1:34 PM - Lyth: And yeah, Gemini, I plan on using the Super GB border for animations
May 31, 2015 at 1:35 PM - Gemini: it can be animated?

 

May 31, 2015 at 1:36 PM - Lyth: Yeah, I believe so. Simple animations can happen in it
May 31, 2015 at 1:37 PM - Lyth: I may be recalling incorrectly. Let me check.
May 31, 2015 at 1:39 PM - Gemini: i'm not sure if it can be done during regular code execution
May 31, 2015 at 1:39 PM - Gemini: tho considering it's supposed to run on a snes with gb hardware, it probably can
May 31, 2015 at 1:40 PM - Gemini: i mean, the snes hardware is still there and can be used in parallel
May 31, 2015 at 1:41 PM - Lyth: Hmm, if it can't, that's fine.
May 31, 2015 at 1:41 PM - Lyth: The game is meant to be minimalistic, so simple black scrolling on the screen itself will do
May 31, 2015 at 1:41 PM - Lyth: "fade to black" type of thing
May 31, 2015 at 1:42 PM - Lyth: When you guys try the game. Let me know. It's quick, but I'd love feedback.
May 31, 2015 at 1:44 PM - Gemini: i'll give it a try as soon as i'm done writing this spu crap
May 31, 2015 at 1:45 PM - Lyth: heh, alright.
May 31, 2015 at 2:00 PM - gladders: Hey guys, I just won an Atari 7800 on eBay
May 31, 2015 at 2:09 PM - Gemini: and spu partial malloc done, going to try the gb demo now
May 31, 2015 at 2:12 PM - Gemini: and i've become something
May 31, 2015 at 2:17 PM - Lyth: bahaha
May 31, 2015 at 3:03 PM - Gemini: i can't seem to be able to make the super gameboy border appear
May 31, 2015 at 3:05 PM - Maxus: pouet !
May 31, 2015 at 3:38 PM - Lyth: The border is a seperate file (for now) that is in experimental stage. Unfinished, so unincluded with the game.
May 31, 2015 at 3:39 PM - Gemini: ahhh, for a sec i thought bgb was messing around
May 31, 2015 at 3:40 PM - Gemini: then i tried playing with star ocean blue sphere and it was there
May 31, 2015 at 7:28 PM - MSX: Oh wow. Site's back. And the magical chatbox too.
May 31, 2015 at 7:29 PM - Borman:
May 31, 2015 at 7:29 PM - MSX: Hey Borman. How've you been?
May 31, 2015 at 7:30 PM - Borman: Surviving hah
May 31, 2015 at 7:30 PM - MSX: Heh. That's how it goes.
May 31, 2015 at 7:35 PM - Borman: Hopefully anyway hah
May 31, 2015 at 8:31 PM - fate6: Midnight Xbox Crew Assemble!? Honestly I have no idea by whose time we use to do that
May 31, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Sephirothkefka: Here!!!!
May 31, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Sephirothkefka: Just finished GOW3
May 31, 2015 at 8:39 PM - fate6: First time?
May 31, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Sephirothkefka: Supeb game
May 31, 2015 at 8:39 PM - Sephirothkefka: Yes
May 31, 2015 at 8:40 PM - Sephirothkefka: Well !ore like 1.5
May 31, 2015 at 8:40 PM - Sephirothkefka: *more
May 31, 2015 at 8:40 PM - fate6: Just wait till you play the RAMM DLC cause its IMHO better than the main game

 

May 31, 2015 at 8:41 PM - Sephirothkefka: Ramm?
May 31, 2015 at 8:41 PM - fate6: http://gearsofwar.wikia.com/wiki/RAAM's_Shadow
May 31, 2015 at 8:41 PM - fate6: lol RAAM
May 31, 2015 at 8:42 PM - Sephirothkefka: I meant god of war 3 lol
May 31, 2015 at 8:42 PM - Sephirothkefka: Gears is typical 3rd person shooter
May 31, 2015 at 8:42 PM - Sephirothkefka: Haven't played that yet
May 31, 2015 at 8:43 PM - fate6: oh!!!
May 31, 2015 at 8:43 PM - fate6: sorry had Xbox in the mind
May 31, 2015 at 8:43 PM - fate6: in that case I have no idea but I did like the first two games
May 31, 2015 at 8:44 PM - Sephirothkefka: The final part made my PS3 lag SOOOO much
May 31, 2015 at 8:44 PM - Sephirothkefka: Even with mx4 paste
May 31, 2015 at 8:44 PM - Sephirothkefka: It was like 5 fps
May 31, 2015 at 8:45 PM - fate6: what exactly was happening on screen!?
May 31, 2015 at 8:45 PM - Sephirothkefka: Just tons of screen tear
May 31, 2015 at 8:46 PM - Sephirothkefka: It would make fats ylod immediately
May 31, 2015 at 8:47 PM - fate6: meant was happening in game to cause that
May 31, 2015 at 8:48 PM - Sephirothkefka: Gaia a very large model that was extremely detailed carried a small temple like building while carrying Zeus and kratos
May 31, 2015 at 8:48 PM - Sephirothkefka: Its hard to explain
May 31, 2015 at 8:49 PM - Sephirothkefka: Point is: very laggy during that scene
May 31, 2015 at 8:50 PM - Sephirothkefka: Hmm...
May 31, 2015 at 8:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: Other videos have it smooth as butter
May 31, 2015 at 8:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: Maybe cause I have a hatsune miku customs theme running in the background?
May 31, 2015 at 8:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: *custom
May 31, 2015 at 8:52 PM - Sephirothkefka: Who knows...

Jun 1, 2015 12:52 AM - LeHaM: For anyone on mobile try this, it's just the chat box
Jun 1, 2015 12:52 AM - LeHaM: http://assemblergames.com/l/taigachat/popup
Jun 1, 2015 1:39 AM - HEX1GON: There's no NEC section on the forums! CODE RED!
Jun 1, 2015 1:46 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: There's a PC Engine section
Jun 1, 2015 1:51 AM - HEX1GON: I happen to be blind
Jun 1, 2015 3:43 AM - vinyl: Hey everyone, a simple yet a question which I don`t think its worth making a topic about it...
Jun 1, 2015 3:43 AM - vinyl: can a Nintendo 64DD Development unit, run normal games?
Jun 1, 2015 3:46 AM - vinyl: (Also if there is someone having experience with N64DD systems my system maybe broken but it gives errors which are not known, and all happens after reading a disk, not while having the intro/menu screen)
Jun 1, 2015 4:14 AM - DeChief: It might be worth making a topic about if you're going to be asking follow up questions.
Jun 1, 2015 4:33 AM - vinyl: fair enough!
Jun 1, 2015 4:41 AM - DeChief: Have you searched the forums for information already?
Jun 1, 2015 5:41 AM - bacteria: My understanding, and may well be wrong on this, is the N64DD can run normal carts, as the DD unit connects to the underside of the console in the reverse side of the cart port. Never had one though.
Jun 1, 2015 5:48 AM - LeHaM: I made a review of a $35 upscaler it works better than expected
Jun 1, 2015 5:51 AM - bacteria: 1:15 into the video - the character seems to have graphical issues, is that the case?
Jun 1, 2015 5:52 AM - bacteria: the body parts seem to vanish and come back - was that on the original?
Jun 1, 2015 6:01 AM - LeHaM: yeah, it virtual fighter on the saturn. does that all the time odd
Jun 1, 2015 6:21 AM - bacteria: That's fine, issue with the console not the upscaler! The gadget i've got for SCART>HDMI works well too; seems upscaler unit is good too; about the same price yours was too!
Jun 1, 2015 6:51 AM - LeHaM: Yeah when I bought it I had a brain fart and forgot SCART carried composite ha oh well
Jun 1, 2015 6:52 AM - LeHaM: becaue I would have just bought a scart upscaler
Jun 1, 2015 7:14 AM - bacteria: Yes, pin 8 on SCART dictates if RGB or composite input. SCART is good as also does S-video too.
Jun 1, 2015 7:29 AM - LeHaM: cool Do you have a link for the one you bought?
Jun 1, 2015 7:35 AM - bacteria: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111593522822?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
Jun 1, 2015 7:48 AM - LeHaM: thank you kind sir
Jun 1, 2015 8:39 AM - bacteria: my pleasure. would be interesting to know how this one I got compares to others
Jun 1, 2015 8:54 AM - DeChief: What exactly is the point of an upscaler?
Jun 1, 2015 8:57 AM - DeChief: Is it something to do with quality? I honestly don't see the appeal in RGB mods and the like.
Jun 1, 2015 9:08 AM - bacteria: I got mine as I needed SCART > HDMI
Jun 1, 2015 9:21 AM - DeChief: Why did you need that? What console nativly outputs SCART?
Jun 1, 2015 9:28 AM - Sephirothkefka: I believe Saturn and SNES do as well as n64
Jun 1, 2015 9:30 AM - DeChief: But they have AV cables too, so why use scart?
Jun 1, 2015 9:30 AM - DeChief: And if you have scart cables then why not just buy a scart TV lol
Jun 1, 2015 9:44 AM - MBMM: So Chief, anything else cool on those discs?
Jun 1, 2015 9:54 AM - DeChief: Nah, that Sega Saturn one is pretty much it.
Jun 1, 2015 9:54 AM - bacteria: You can mod a retro console to output in RGB, then output that to SCART, then use SCART > HDMI adaptor. That's why.
Jun 1, 2015 9:55 AM - DeChief: I don't want to open the sealed ones just in case someone wants them sealed.

 

Jun 1, 2015 at 9:55 AM - bacteria: televisions in the UK tend to input RCA, HDMI, component and mostly (less now) SCART. That is what you have to play with
Jun 1, 2015 at 9:56 AM - DeChief: So if you have mostly scart, why the adapter?
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:00 AM - bacteria: because my television does not input SCART, only HDMI. therefore needs an adaptor...
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:02 AM - bacteria: also SCART allows changing screen output 4:3 or widescreen, and as some consoles are composite only, using SCART makes sense as mid-house
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:10 AM - DeChief: I honestly don't notice the difference between 4:3 and widescreen when I'm playing NES games even.
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:19 AM - bacteria: Game characters can look stretched, also circles become ovals if in widescreen mode not 4:3 mode; so having the option to select one or other is handy
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:35 AM - DeChief: right
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Lyth: Yo Bacteria
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:06 AM - Lyth: <<<<< Hotdog-cart from benheck.com forums. Long time no see.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:09 AM - DeChief: Wat

Jun 1, 2015 at 11:17 AM - Lyth: Haha, I was unbanned after that. Thats a 10 year old post . Turns out people ended up actually liking my antics (I was 13 at the time mind you), so then I smartened up, got to come back and actually made things with the community.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:18 AM - Lyth: Made 1 Portable Sega Genesis, and started to work on a dreamcast laptop, but ended up hurting myself so I stopped. Damn, that makes me feel old now.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:23 AM - DeChief: Reminds me of when I was 10 on the bungie.net forums. I had so many alts because I got banned every other week. How on earth did you hurt yourself making a DC laptop?
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:24 AM - DeChief: And why did you make a Nomad?
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:24 AM - Lyth: Plexiglass + Hinges + LCD monitor + Dreamcast
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:24 AM - bacteria: (popping in and out as get time); yeah i've been on this site now 7 years
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:25 AM - DeChief: I've been lurking here since '09, couldnt make an account because of a bug until 2014.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:25 AM - bacteria: some sites like "antics", others are more grown up sites. I prefer grown up sites, like here
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:26 AM - DeChief: Sometimes I hate how grown up it is here though
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:26 AM - bacteria: when you get older you will appreciate a grown up site not a site that is a playground for kids to misbehave on.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:26 AM - MBMM: but that's why there's the Vestibule on IGN and the entirety of GameFaqs!
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:32 AM - vinyl: did anyone recently bought anything from ebay ? as in a developers console?
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:33 AM - vinyl: Because if someone did.. that listing was a copy. of another listing, and got sold twice..
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:39 AM - Lyth: inb4 bacteria doesnt recognize me. I see how it is
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:40 AM - DeChief: rekt

Jun 1, 2015 at 11:49 AM - bacteria: I vaguely remember Hotdog-Cart as a name but no details. Was a long time ago so i'm sure you understand Lyth.
Jun 1, 2015 at 12:02 PM - bacteria: bfn
Jun 1, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Lyth: haha no worries.
Jun 1, 2015 at 12:05 PM - Lyth: However in some good news, I am translating the iQue@Home/Fugue Online application for the iQue Player from Chinese into English
Jun 1, 2015 at 12:06 PM - Lyth: and will release it when it's done. Then I'll begin work on server/auth spoofing, to hopefully find a way to get games for free. I've already found a way to change the server IP it looks up to send the PIN to for authing it, and releasing the game to be "installed" on the iQue.
Jun 1, 2015 at 12:40 PM - Sephirothkefka: English iQue?

 

Jun 1, 2015 at 12:40 PM - Sephirothkefka: That sounds interesting!
Jun 1, 2015 at 1:52 PM - Gemini: jesus this sony libraries, they are a mess to figure out
Jun 1, 2015 at 2:48 PM - demon: So was cleaning some junk and found an envolope with two atari lynx "proto-cart"'s have no idea where I got these or if they're even real. the board kinda looks like the one from this thread: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/221442-conquest-of-zow/ anybody know anything about them?
Jun 1, 2015 at 2:48 PM - demon: Thinking they might be repro's tbh but have no clue
Jun 1, 2015 at 2:57 PM - demon: Hm almost certain they're repro's as they have 2001 and the one's I have the games are from 1991. shame lol
Jun 1, 2015 at 3:15 PM - Sephirothkefka: Atari lynx stuff?
Jun 1, 2015 at 3:16 PM - Sephirothkefka: Cool!

Jun 1, 2015 at 4:30 PM - gladders: Anyone know a good place to buy a Jaguar in the UK? eBay is getting expensive
Jun 1, 2015 at 4:37 PM - BamBoo: ebay is always expensive these days
Jun 1, 2015 at 4:39 PM - BamBoo: my best guess is you find a bricks and mortar retro game shop
Jun 1, 2015 at 4:42 PM - BamBoo: or keep checking new buy it now listings
Jun 1, 2015 at 4:43 PM - BamBoo: some sellers don't know what items are worth or don't care and just want it gone quickly
Jun 1, 2015 at 4:45 PM - BamBoo: auctions will almost always have people putting in crazy bids matching or supasing average buy in now prices
Jun 1, 2015 at 7:41 PM - gladders: Thankyou
Jun 1, 2015 at 9:50 PM - DeChief: I was thinking about picking up an iQue, I see them sometimes on eBay for pretty good prices actually
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:14 PM - Lyth: Yeah, they're cheap in China. ABout $20.
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:20 PM - Gemini: ah, i wish i had an unmodded psx unit with me to test out this protection unlock code <.<
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:20 PM - Gemini: and also a bunch blank CD-Rs
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:21 PM - DeChief: Yo Lyth, how much would it cost for an iQue with all the games on it plus another controller?
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:25 PM - LeHaM: what ps unlock code never heard of such a thing
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:26 PM - Gemini: basically plug'n'play mod
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:26 PM - Gemini: it unlocks a secret cd mode that allows you to play with games from whatever region
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:27 PM - LeHaM: got any kinks on more info sounds interesting
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:27 PM - Gemini: well, unirom does the trick from the go and needs to be flashed over your AR rom, Xploder or whatever
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:27 PM - Gemini: otherwise, i've got some code that does the same thing
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:28 PM - Gemini: http://pastebin.com/TAm9CjBb <-- godawful, but works
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:52 PM - LeHaM: interesting
Jun 1, 2015 at 10:57 PM - MottZilla: I've found a number of games that mess up the unlock though.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:01 PM - MottZilla: Resident Evil 3 does it when you are starting a new game. Final Fantasy 7 freezes at the NewGame/Continue menu, and Raiden Project does it after the very first copyright text screen.
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:04 PM - Lyth: DeChief it's hard to find a SWIM controller (you cant use a regular ique as another controller, as it contains the entire system inside of it)
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:04 PM - -=FamilyGuy=-: Tinfoil made me crack up retro
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:04 PM - Lyth: And you'd need a SWIM box as well

 

Jun 1, 2015 at 11:05 PM - Lyth: So, it'd go: iQue Player (This is Player 1 AND the console) + Swim Box (multi tap) + Swim Controller (This is player 2. It only contains controller, and not the full console)
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:06 PM - -=FamilyGuy=-: But it was advised to supply it up into its own thread
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:11 PM - -=FamilyGuy=-: Split

Jun 1, 2015 at 11:53 PM - Mord.Fustang: it's probably mucho different now than then
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:53 PM - Mord.Fustang: i was impressed it was a browser game, i don't remember much else about it, and i suck at quake kinda games so i got owned alot
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:54 PM - Mord.Fustang: (it is a browser game, right? i'm not confusing it with something else?)
Jun 1, 2015 at 11:57 PM - Gemini: and made the no$psx counterpart of the same code

Jun 2, 2015 12:22 AM - Mord.Fustang: most stuff i order comes straight from china so i'm used to waiting 3-5 weeks generally
Jun 2, 2015 12:23 AM - Mord.Fustang: if it comes in 3 weeks, i consider it quick. but you auzzies might get it much quicker than north america
Jun 2, 2015 12:23 AM - LeHaM: yeah I'm the same with china, set and forget.. It's like someone is sending me gifts hehe
Jun 2, 2015 12:24 AM - LeHaM: I've bought stuff from japan and have it arrive in 3 days
Jun 2, 2015 12:24 AM - Mord.Fustang: ha exactly! sometimes i get happy when i get a package and open it and i'm like, "oh yeah, i totally forgot i ordered that"
Jun 2, 2015 12:24 AM - Mord.Fustang: it's like xmas.
Jun 2, 2015 12:24 AM - Sephirothkefka: Lol

Jun 2, 2015 12:25 AM - LeHaM: sometimes I buy small stuff for just that purpose
Jun 2, 2015 12:25 AM - Mord.Fustang: if i order within canada or the US it's only a few days, even from europe it's only like 5 days generally.
Jun 2, 2015 12:25 AM - Mord.Fustang: i pretty much always have stuff coming in from ebay
Jun 2, 2015 12:26 AM - LeHaM: I ordered a GPU from 20km from my house last month. took a wekk to arrive
Jun 2, 2015 12:26 AM - Mord.Fustang: i was reading that the chinese govt won't be subsidizing shipping as much in china, so shipping costs may go up soon.
Jun 2, 2015 12:26 AM - Mord.Fustang: lol XD
Jun 2, 2015 12:26 AM - LeHaM: yeah it's better than a subscription box XD
Jun 2, 2015 12:27 AM - Mord.Fustang: 20km... might as well just drive there lol
Jun 2, 2015 12:27 AM - Sephirothkefka: ^
Jun 2, 2015 12:27 AM - LeHaM: Sounds odd becasue isnt international stuff a huge part of the economy for them??
Jun 2, 2015 12:27 AM - Mord.Fustang: yeah, not sure how true it is, just something i read somewhere.

Jun 2, 2015 12:36 AM - LeHaM: so quake live sucks, you can pick any gun when you start the match :/
Jun 2, 2015 12:36 AM - Sephirothkefka: Huh
Jun 2, 2015 12:37 AM - Sephirothkefka: Whenever I eject this CECH-2001 ps3 it makes the disc fall out of the tray
Jun 2, 2015 12:37 AM - Sephirothkefka: At least thats what happened w/ my blue ray copy of star wars episode 1
Jun 2, 2015 12:38 AM - Mord.Fustang: lol

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 AM - Mord.Fustang: isn't that what eject is supposed to do? or do you mean it's like, falling onto the floor?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 AM - Sephirothkefka: Maybe the cell/RSX hates jar jar Bink's?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 AM - Mord.Fustang: have you ever opened it before?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 AM - Sephirothkefka: Its falling
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:38 AM - Sephirothkefka: Yes
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:39 AM - Sephirothkefka: Its a bd-450 drive with a bmd-061 board
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:50 AM - Mord.Fustang: i'm not super familiar with the ps3 slim BR drives as i am with the fat ones
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:50 AM - Mord.Fustang: i've dealt with the fat ps3s way more.
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:53 AM - Sephirothkefka: I see
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:53 AM - Sephirothkefka: I know A LOT about all ps3s
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:55 AM - LeHaM: could be a bung limit switch
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:56 AM - Sephirothkefka: Limit switch?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:56 AM - Sephirothkefka: In a slot loader?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:57 AM - LeHaM: the front of the drive will have limit switches that are part of the disc detect mechanism. you said slim right?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:57 AM - Sephirothkefka: Yes
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:57 AM - Sephirothkefka: Oh THOSE
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:57 AM - Sephirothkefka: My bad
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:00 AM - LeHaM: slot loading drives are a pain, as the same mechanism for inserting the disc also controls how long the rollers spin for to eject the disc. If its out of whack, the drive thinks the disc is 3ft long and doesnt turn off the motor and thus the disc will fall out
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:01 AM - Sephirothkefka: Its weird
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:01 AM - Sephirothkefka: It stops normally but it will slide
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:02 AM - LeHaM: pull the whole drive mech out and start again, ounds just like an alignment issue. Pay attention to what position the front half is in when the drive is "loaded"
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:04 AM - LeHaM: if you are still stuck make a tread and I'll try and see if I have the same drive and take some phots
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:11 AM - APE: FEED ME DISCS
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:20 AM - Sephirothkefka: What kind?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:40 AM - XboxSurgeon: Black cookie, creme filled disc of Oreo goodness....
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:32 AM - ASSEMbler: many site issues fixed tonight
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:55 AM - XboxSurgeon:
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:44 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I met a woman the other day who didn't know what the word "disc" means.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:51 AM - HEX1GON: she's not a keeper
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: The really funny part is that she had been looking at CDs for like 20 minutes
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:52 AM - HEX1GON: considering many don't know the difference between disk and disc, I'm not surprised.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:53 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: she apparently didn't know either
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:55 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I'm going to see Melt-Banana tomorrow. Japanese noise rock band.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:57 AM - HEX1GON: Oh no come on
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:58 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: Are you reacting to the thing about discs, or Melt-Banana?

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 4:58 AM - HEX1GON: yes the discs
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:59 AM - la-li-lu-le-lo: I think she was pretty old, mainly because she seemed to have trouble hearing me, but it was hard to tell
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:12 AM - vinyl: Good morning everyone, can someone help me setting up a 64DD Development? I got a chance to buy one, loose, with only the "DISK" cart, and a blue disk .
Jun 2, 2015 at 5:12 AM - vinyl: Is this enough to let it run or make it work/play on it?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:44 AM - ASSEMbler: You need a development card
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:45 AM - ASSEMbler: as well a the rom card for the dd that goes in the 64 slot
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:45 AM - ASSEMbler: So you have a pretty paperweight
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:45 AM - ASSEMbler: besaically
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:49 AM - vinyl: oh thanks for the headsup!
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:49 AM - vinyl: That is why 64DDD are cheap loose.. cause its useless basicly, just meant for display
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 AM - ASSEMbler: Pretty much
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:59 AM - vinyl: Thanks alot. apreciated
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM - gladders: Anyone here know about power brick plug sockets...re: Colecovision
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:59 AM - HEX1GON: It also pays to do your research before buying. Maybe you'll come across the required stuff some day
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:05 AM - DeChief: Heyoooo, just finished my japanese reading comprehension exam
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:07 AM - gladders: How'd you do DeChief?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:14 AM - Lyth: I remember paying $800 for a mint 64DD, Every game except Dolshin 2 and Golf, everything in box, including the original RANDNET shipping box
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:15 AM - Lyth: Even the sexy keyboard
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:16 AM - xRavenx: very awesome improvements here!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 AM - DeChief: I think I got 100% honestly gladders
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:26 AM - DeChief: Maybe 98%, but i was only unsure of one answer
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:28 AM - gladders: That's pretty neat!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:31 AM - DeChief: Yeah! but this is only the first exam, ive got another one on the 11th. That ones much harder because i have to write two essays (one 180 character and one 300 character)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:34 AM - gladders: Still, an encouraging start. I suck at German which at least uses a familiar alphabet, I'd be awful at learning Japanese lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Lyth: I'm in China. Chinese is so difficult, due to no alphabet and being a tone based language.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Lyth: And all the dialects
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - DeChief: Yeah. People from Oosaka sound wayyyyy different to people from tokyo
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - DeChief: its crazy hard to understand them
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:36 AM - Lyth: I found Japanese speaking and Korean writing to be fun, Chinese is a pain, but I love the sound of Cantonese so Im learning it
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - DeChief: My chinese friend found japanese so easy because he already knew all the kanji haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Lyth: Yeah, osaka-ben and tokyo-ben, correct?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - DeChief: Nice
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - DeChief: Yeah
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - Lyth: Yeah, my GF is fine because she knows traditional chinese/kanji
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:37 AM - DeChief: I only know about 200 kanji lol

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:38 AM - gladders: I have asked a friend of mine to grab a PC Engine for me when she visits Hong Kong in August
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:38 AM - DeChief: I could get you one right now
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - Lyth: Heh, I live right on the border (water border) of HK.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - Lyth: I'm in Zhongshan, China.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - gladders: That would be cool, but I'd save money on postage and she hopes to get her boyfriend to haggle
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - gladders: Thanks for the offer though!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - DeChief: Hah, good strategy
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - DeChief: np
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 AM - DeChief: I live in Tokyo btw
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:40 AM - DeChief: Oh yeah Lyth, I don't know if you answered this already or not, but how much would an iQue with all the games cost? And would you be able to get me one?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:40 AM - Lyth: Nice DeChief, what is your job?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:41 AM - DeChief: I'm actually a student, wish I had a job though. Buying and reselling games gives me enough to fund collection so I guess thats okay
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - gladders: What I would love to find is an RGB-ready Famicom but I know those are hugely expensive
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - DeChief: RGB-ready famicom? you mean a famicom with an RGB mod?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 AM - Lyth: The games are digitally downloaded using cards. I believe they're about 10-20 rmb each, and the cards have 48rmb on them. So you'd need a few cards. They are 48rmb +shipping to me + shipping to you (unless you want just the PIN). The consoles are 150rmb each + shipping to me + shipping to you (kinda heavy) + my markup fee.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - gladders: Yes DeChief
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 AM - Lyth: ah nice. I'm a teacher in China, although I'm applying to work in export sales, and game development soon. Wanting to expand my knowledge while I'm here.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 AM - DeChief: Nice, I'm looking to gain knowledge in something other than games lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 AM - Lyth: DeChief, are you a native English speaker?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 AM - DeChief: Gladders, I found a guy selling AV modded famicoms for about 4700 yen, but ive never seen an RGB modded one
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 AM - DeChief: Yeah, im australian
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 AM - Lyth: I know a few companies in Japan that hire them, and it's part time, set your own hours (tutoring) and includes full training.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 AM - Lyth: (English Tutoring)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 AM - gladders: I'd love to be able to settle for just AV but I am in the UK and my TV hates foreign signals except for RGB
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 AM - gladders: And the wife won't be impressed by any excuse to buy a new TV for that reason!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:46 AM - DeChief: Hmmm, that might be good actually Lyth. My sister does English tutoring for special kids (as in kids with mental problems, downs, etc)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - DeChief: I doubt id be able to though because I'm 16
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Lyth: Ah. Wow, are you on a foreign exchange? How is studying in a Japanese school?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - Lyth: or is your family ExPat?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:47 AM - DeChief: And Gladders, how does your TV not work with AV?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 AM - DeChief: I'm an expat, dad's job (Fujitsu)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 AM - Lyth: Nice
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 AM - gladders: DeChief - it does but it only shows non-PAL signals in black and white
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 AM - gladders: But RGB works just fine. I have an RGB N64
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 AM - Lyth: Are you in a special foreigner school? Or regular Japanese school?

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 AM - gladders: And want to get an RGB PC Engine IFU
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:49 AM - DeChief: That's strange. I must have an international TV then, it works with everything. Is it an old one or a new-ish one? One of my older digital TVs has options for NTSC and PAL video or something like that
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:50 AM - DeChief: I'm in an international school, british system
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:50 AM - Lyth: ah nice man
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:50 AM - gladders: It's from about 2005, LCD HD
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - gladders: I think it's in that sucky period where they compromised on lots of stuff to make it a bargain HD TV
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - gladders: I wasn't into retro consoles back then
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - DeChief: Damn. Youve checked through all the menus right?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 AM - gladders: Yeah thoroughly
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - gladders: It has options to switch to NTSC but it only shows stuff there in black and white
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - gladders: Unless I'm using RGB
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - DeChief: Thats strange...
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - Lyth: Well dechief, when you're 18, check out GABA Japan, Berlitz, JET, there's others but Im not on my teaching PC.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - gladders: Cack TV
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 AM - DeChief: You could always get a converter, I had one for sega saturn that converted from NTSC to PAL signal
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - bacteria: RGB is not PAL or NTSC hence why you can watch on either format, however RCA is NTSC or PAL, so if you watch NTSC on PAL you will get B&W or scrolling image
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - gladders: Any recommended ones?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - DeChief: Thanks Lyth, but when I leave here I'll only be 17 graduating school a year earlier, im a little young
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - Lyth: Ah, shame.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 AM - gladders: yeah bac, that's pretty much it
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - Lyth: DeChief, might be worth making a post in the Japan forum about living in Japan as a student. I bet people would love it. I have one about China and it's stickied
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 AM - DeChief: I thought about it, but then I realised most of my stories involve getting into bars because I look 20+ with a beard
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Lyth: LOl even better
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Lyth: take photos of candy and stuff man lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - DeChief: I dont drink but my friends do, i just kind of hang out if theres a party or something.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - DeChief: Haha
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - DeChief: I often go to akihabara, i could post about my hauls
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 AM - Lyth: Gaijin
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:56 AM - Lyth: ooo yes
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:56 AM - DeChief: Gaikokujin dayo~
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - DeChief: kono chugoku baka yaro...
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - DeChief: shinjirarenai
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - DeChief: shit
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:57 AM - DeChief: chugokujin*
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:18 AM - Lyth: Hmm just found some weird NDS antenna TV tuner thing for Japan

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 9:27 AM - Sephirothkefka: I remember that
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:27 AM - Sephirothkefka: Sucks it didn't come in the states
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:28 AM - Gemini: psx unlock procedure: FAILURE
Jun 2, 2015 at 9:28 AM - Gemini: i guess i'll leave that just to unirom
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:17 AM - MBMM: Hey Lyth, you still there?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:40 AM - Lyth: Yeah, sorry was making mochi and just bought 3 rare GB games to dump. Woooo. Gowin games (Binary Monsters 1, 3 and an unlabeled one). These are undumped
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:49 AM - MBMM: How's the GB business going? Anything related to the FFVIII GB game drop yet?
Jun 2, 2015 at 10:54 AM - gladders: FFVIII GB game drop? This intrigues me
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - Gemini: wait, GB?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:08 AM - Gemini: Gameboy or kGB?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - MBMM: Game Boy. Lyth will probably be able to provide the link to his page regarding them.
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:11 AM - Gemini: Final Fantasy 8, on GB? did i miss some new prototype?
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:12 AM - Gemini: quistis whipping 8 bit, can't wait
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:23 AM - MBMM: Anything FFVIII related interests me. They are Chinese bootlegs. Hold on, Lyth's profile might have the link...
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:24 AM - MBMM: http://bootlegs.gg8.se/Main_Page Here it be
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:28 AM - Gemini: oh wait, i think i remember now *that* FF rom for GB
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:34 AM - demon: If you're buying bootlegs avoid this one, (warning ear rape ahead)
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:52 AM - Gemini: recorded with a banana
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:53 AM - Gemini: i guess that's jenesis + roms
Jun 2, 2015 at 11:54 AM - demon: Not sure. I think I have some GB bootlegs somewhere will have to check see if they're dumped or not
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:20 PM - MBMM: Shoot a message to Lyth. Do you have any dumping materials?
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:25 PM - demon: I don't sadly only a few carts
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:30 PM - demon: http://i.imgur.com/2wddCRl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/fyV49Vf.jpg < mario 4? damn pirates
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:37 PM - Sephirothkefka: Man pirate carts suck
Jun 2, 2015 at 12:40 PM - demon: normally avoid them only got these from joblots but held onto them
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:05 PM - MBMM: joblots?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:12 PM - soviet9922: a banana ?
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:16 PM - MBMM: Letters forming words follow by a question mark? kidding.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:26 PM - -=FamilyGuy=-: That descriptively correct.
Jun 2, 2015 at 1:30 PM - Sephirothkefka: Lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:03 PM - MBMM: The English wasn't, though. Surprised that nobody mentioned that.
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:34 PM - Sephirothkefka: If square enix releases kh3 with frozen I will be so pissed off...
Jun 2, 2015 at 2:42 PM - GodofHardcore: Just want Deadpool in KH3 replacing Goofy.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:08 PM - MBMM: I mean, Frozen is part of the Disney universe so it would make sense.
Jun 2, 2015 at 3:48 PM - Sephirothkefka: I hate frozen tho

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 3:56 PM - MBMM: Tough break I guess. It's very likely it'll play a part, given how massively popular it is.
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:03 PM - NovaFox: I'd be surprised if it wasn't
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:33 PM - MBMM: I've never seen it, so I can't speak to how good or bad it is. All I know is that it's everywhere
Jun 2, 2015 at 4:36 PM - gladders: I enjoyed it but yeah, overexposure
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:32 PM - Seeeejaaaay: 日本語で言っていい？
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:45 PM - Gemini: いってくだされ
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Seeeejaaaay: あー　すげ
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Seeeejaaaay: その歌、知ってる？
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:49 PM - Seeeejaaaay: 「言ったじゃないか」
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:50 PM - Seeeejaaaay: http://www.amazon.co.jp/言ったじゃないか-CloveR-【初回限定盤A】-DVD付-関ジャニ∞-x/dp/B00N9P4F5O
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Seeeejaaaay: Gemini-君、日本人？
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: What's with the Japanese?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Seeeejaaaay: It's fun
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: Ah
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Seeeejaaaay: You should learn too
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:51 PM - Sephirothkefka: Well a 1tb ps4 would be coming soon...
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Seeeejaaaay: ....what?
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Sephirothkefka: Under the cuh-1200 series
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:52 PM - Sephirothkefka: http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidthier/2015/06/02/sony-is-making-a-1tb-ps4/
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Mord.Fustang: yeah, saw that, though one could easily replace the hard drive in a PS4 anyways
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:53 PM - Sephirothkefka: Yep
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Mord.Fustang: a 1tb xbox one would be more beneficial because microsoft in their glory and wisdom decided to make them non-replaceable like dolts
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Sephirothkefka: There was that advanced warfare one with 1tb
Jun 2, 2015 at 6:54 PM - Sephirothkefka: But a normal black or white xbone should be necessary
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:05 PM - Borman: I mean, they are replaceable, it's just a headache
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:06 PM - Borman: But yeah, 1tb is needed. My 500 is almost full
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:46 PM - bananaswag: 1TB isnt even going to last the lifetime of the Xbox One
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:47 PM - bananaswag: I have under 50GB left on mine already
Jun 2, 2015 at 7:59 PM - Borman: It's a start anyway
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:00 PM - retro: experimenting with red buttons on the dark theme. thoughts?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:07 PM - nilats: red too bright for the rest of the scheme but if they matched I'd like them
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:10 PM - retro: matching looks shit
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:10 PM - retro: is this a title bar? is it a button? who knows?! they all look the same!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:11 PM - retro:
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:25 PM - Sephirothkefka: it looks good i think

 

Jun 2, 2015 at 8:27 PM - Invis: has anyone here ever used ps2 patch engine for an actual ps2?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:33 PM - retro: says the man using purple text on dark grey hehe
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:39 PM - demon: Red buttons are much better but still a little bright I think.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:41 PM - retro: just a case of finding a happy shade
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:41 PM - retro: the same as the title bars is confusing. i'll have a play
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:41 PM - demon: Yeah was going to say they'll clash a little
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:42 PM - retro: are you familiar with flat awesome dark?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 PM - demon: I'm not tbh only got two themes by pixelexit/russ and one I ditched
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 PM - retro: I like the way they've done the colour palette - top row is "background" colours, bottom row is text colours for that element
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:43 PM - retro: in style properties: color palette, that is
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 PM - retro: buuuut... @facolor2 = the title bars (e.g. Shoutbox / Community Point) AND every damn link
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 PM - retro: e.g. Latest: this text
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 PM - retro: or online now: retro
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 PM - demon: Ah yeah that's the same in all the XF styles. I just ignore and use actual css as i'm not a fan of the limited colour range
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:44 PM - retro: any idea of the css class for all links?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 PM - demon: sec let me login to my admin
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 PM - retro: as (depending on your screen) - it's too damn dark!
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:45 PM - retro: cheers
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:46 PM - demon: the link colour should be pretty easy I think I did that on my other site (goes to login to that also haha)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:48 PM - retro: changed the button red to the same as the alert pin. too much??
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:49 PM - demon: Just a tad. I think something close to the nodes would be better but finding the right one's the pain lo..
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:49 PM - demon: lol*
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 PM - demon: Ah so the links I edited the normal way on mine (direct css not via the colour bit) it's just the link text you wish to change?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:51 PM - retro: yup - all links
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 PM - retro: uhh... the ghostly hover on links seems to have stopped. wtf?
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:52 PM - demon: ok sec also, http://www.colorhexa.com/e44646 not sure if that'll fit (RGB is at the bottom)
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:53 PM - demon: Looks like shadow was added to the hover, I'd remove that tbh just make it underlined it's more simple.
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 PM - retro: it's on that now. hmm, possibly is subtle enough to match but different enough to be... different
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 PM - retro: yeah... I totally meant to do that lol
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:54 PM - demon: ah xD
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 PM - retro: somehow managed to turn the weird white glow off while playing heh
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 PM - retro: btw it's not all links, of course
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 PM - demon: It might be an idea to use font awesome on the shoutbox buttons might make things a little more clear on the buttons then
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 PM - retro: duh just realized that
Jun 2, 2015 at 8:55 PM - retro: the style is 100% fontawesome, isn't it?
