| iDeaS seems like the one emulator that has the BEST chance of loading commercial roms at some point, but when/if that happens is all still very much up in the air. There's been some work done (a few commercial demos show something such at Metroid Prime Hunters and Meteos) but there's still a long, long way to go. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

I'm just waiting for an "I'm sorry that I pulled this practical joke" PM to come my way.  |

| At least we have plenty of artists in Modern Art to pick up the slack for those of us who either used to draw (Chris) or can't draw to save their life (me). Welcome.  |

| Lots of people say that... and then some of them just screw up along the way. :\ Hopefully you're not like that. Welcome. |

| Erm, actually... I love [insert-page-or-image-here], can I use it on my page? If you want to use something on my site, please contact me and ask my permission first. Feel free to link any of the pages on my site, and my site itself on your own site. Please do not link the images directly. Of course, I would assume that message board use would be a *tad* bit different than actual site use, but then again I doubt we're going to suck away all of Maddox's bandwidth to begin with. |

| I can't remember the reason off the top of my head either. I did it anyways because it wasn't a big inconvenience, but still. :\ Strangeness. My FF2 cart refuses to write any data in the second save slot. |

| That's true. I know lots of people did say that the odds of emulating CPS2 roms was very low due to the encryption, but lo and behold, the encryption ended up being bypassed and everyone was happy. (As for CPS3 roms, that might happen... oh... in 20 years? All I know is that the protection on those is brutal.) Heck, PS2 emulation's ahead of DS emulation at the moment. |

| 1) What are your computer specs? You should be OK with most computers, but if yours is really, really old... 2) You could always try NO$GBA to see if that works for you. |

| Doesn't seem like you missed much after the first half. :\ Apparently wasn't a bad game but the problem is that you have to compare the game to Liverpool/Milan... and you just cannot even remotely do that. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

1) No, it shouldn't be...   2) No, mainly because absolutely NOBODY on the board can put up with that so people who insisted on talking like that all the time would find themselves on the outside looking in. 3) ...I do not abuse smilies!    4) I don't know about the mods/admins simply vanishing... but I *will* admit that activity has dropped a little bit, at least among staff members, over the past week or so from what I have noticed. 5) Yeah, it kind of reminds me of another forum... Hmmmm. 6) Why would a topic that makes good points be closed? 7) Actually, Val quit staff by his own accord. 8) Long story, probably best not to go into at the moment. 9) People think that they can be as good as this board someday? I dunno. For every successful MB, there's around 500 that never get off the ground.10) Yes. (The easiest one of the bunch.) |

| Here's how I see it, though - you make money off of selling games for the machine. You don't make money selling DVD's unless your company produces them. For example, Sony makes money in their DVD division from selling those, but nothing ends up in the game division; Microsoft/Nintendo make nothing. The only way to make money off of movies is if your console uses a unique format (see: UMD) and you get something going off that; however, at the moment it's not like all the movies you'd want to see are available on that format anyway. In short, these companies want their systems to be used primarily for games, regardless of their market description, so that the profits keep rolling in directly to them. |

You're always going to have an upset team in the final four, it seems.  We'll see about the States. I have a feeling it's going to be a VERY strong World Cup next year regardless. |

| Really, if she gets sent back to Australia, it's almost *like* being set free - I'd guarantee you that with the media attention, it would be like spending 20 years in a minimum security prison/hotel. Actually, ANYTHING is probably better than an Indonesian prison... I think the girl's innocent and the stuff was probably planted there by someone, but how are you going to make the Indonesian government listen to you aside from threatening to cut off diplomatic ties (much like the Zahra Kazemi murder trial that strained Canada's relations with Iran) or something along those lines. |

Like the page says, just make sure you either know your way around this stuff *or* know other people online who do. |
And if an AcmlmBoard proves to be too tough to set up, there's plenty of other decent message boards out there that also have installation guides. (Although not much can replace this baby...)

Haven't tried it yet but I heard that when you patch the rom (to emulate it), the game loses some of its charm. I don't know if that means the game's too "easy" or monotenous or something along those lines. |
But yeah... Funny how Twisted would prove to be more unique/fun than Touched, hm? Whichever dev team does the games have to be on some serious happy pills.

That's definitely Hatris based on the shapes on the cartridge. |
As for Super Wonderful Mario... not only does it break a ton of copyright laws, but apparently it's simply SMB2 (Lost Levels). Why you'd dress up THAT game so much, I dunno... | |||||||
