Number one is to be able to play the dozens upon dozens of must-have PS2 games once the supply of those systems dries up. Anyone else recall that Xbox production ended a year before its final game, and like 6 or so for the Dreamcast in Japan? Exactly.

I had direct access to old computers from day one all the way until mid-2002. Largely because of having relatives who worked at a recycling center.
Then, well, I'd rather not go there. Anyway. I now have to re-obtain any old computer I still could find a use for. Um, 1987? Hmm. I thought I was the only one here who...

Don't you just hate it when a major game series appears in your country, they skip an entry, than go on releasing the rest without effort to fix continuity or such there?

I've never played them, but I think one Romance of the Three Kingdoms out of like 13 remains Japanese-only.

Mega Man 6 was on two consoles in Japan, four for the US, yet to this day is unreleased in Europe. (7 and 8 did indeed come out there, but they're extremely scarce in quantity as nearly all PAL Mega Man titles are)

Final Fantasy III is perhaps most well-known for this. Contrary to popular belief, no other rerelease of any kind had appeared on shelves in Japan. Not even a "greatest hits"-style packaging of the original cartridge. Although from what little I saw of the DS version, it doesn't bear much resemblance to its NES cousin.

That's why I made that vertical level tile problem part of the storyline. Same with Yoshi and his appearance in castle levels.

Not much information to go on there. Several hacks have been named (or more accurately, codenamed) Super Wario World. My own epic one included.

*bump* A scanner which works in Knoppix or Mac OS 9 would also suit my purposes instead if you know of one. Thanks.

Um... 1990 in Japan.

Now we just need to convince one of the resident "super" ROM hackers here to implement a left-scrolling autoscroll.

OK. I found a DVI cable, which seems to output analog and digital at the same time. But that means this monitor is being detected as two to allow switching between them. So I can't use my actual second monitor... Any ideas? I'm using a PCI-E 7600GTS, Vista Ultimate, a Sharp 19" LCD with DVI and VGA, and an Emachines 15" LCD with just VGA.

To the topic creator: You need get IE7 installed, ASAP. It is countless orders of magnitude more secure than previous versions.

Generally my earlier posts were more informed than that. LM newbie talk.

Although, the angriest I've ever gotten online was being frustrated because the Orange Islands episodes of Pokemon weren't on video when they were supposed to. They'd been skipped in favor of Johto for a year or so. I don't know of a backup of the Pokemasters boards around 2000 to show however.

http://acmlm.cjb.net:2/boardb/thread.php?id=11794

And while I wasn't being a 'douche' here... It's funny that five years after the post, no one has successfully inserted graphics into Tetris Attack, let alone attempted even a Babelfish-ing of the Panel De Pon script.

I had 400 posts on the first incarnation, 200 in the second, and 100 or so for the third. A few were in that strange day or two between this board starting and ||board starting, so those are in their backup instead of the one here.

I only recently began popping up on IRC. I've had an AIM name for years, but never sent or received a single message with it. I'd usually stayed in the ROM hacking forum, which means I didn't notice a lot of the non-hacker members.

How about changing the thread title to be a little more descriptive? A scanner for Vista would work, so would one compatible with Mac OS 9 or any Live CD bootable system.

That leaves me to one little question. Does Virtual PC support a physical parallel port? I know USB isn't fully in it, but what about parallel? If so, that's an easy and free solution letting me use my current scanner.

Keep it up! Fire Emblem 6/7/9 are superb. I hope this means someone'll start a patch making Fire Emblem 8 no longer broken and unplayable due to its balance issues.

About time! I finally did make this work, by "buying" a new scanner (which also prints). The Wal-Mart self checkout forgot to charge me for it...

It's cropped all wrong, but here's my test scan anyway: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v54/theclaw/04-12-200712.jpg

Do whatever you want with the thread.

I dunno about this. Only the Dreamcast versions of Street Fighter II, Puzzle Fighter, Capcom vs. SNK 2, and the first Marvel vs. Capcom were on par with their original arcade form.

Here, we show big collections of games. And to a lesser degree relevant hardware.

http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v54/theclaw/photos/

This isn't everything though. These system units aren't shown:

Turbografx-16, Macintosh G3 clone (Umax?), Original Xbox, GBASP, Original Game Boy, GBcolor, GBpocket, PC tower (the one I'm posting from of course), TI 99/4A, Radio Shack CoCo 3, Atari Flashback, plus a few others which are probably insignificant. Oh, and most of my PSone/Dreamcast games aren't visible either.

Windows XP!? That explains everything right there. The best choice you have is to install Windows 2000 or at least in my own experience, Vista. Both of those are rock-solid when it comes to stability!

XP was the most BSOD ridden piece of garbage I ever had the misfortune of just knowing it's existance.

Mine is kind of weird. It has a long history. Way back in elementary school, I'd invented a rather lame hand gesture which became known as 'the claw'. People originally assumed it had negative connotations. Yet, I didn't intend on that, so I began writing a backstory.

'the claw' soon became a character called 'The Claw'. And that was what I based my username on around early 2001 after I'd dropped Mirror-Raichu. Take note, the 135 part that's sometimes in my username is the Pokedex number of Jolteon. Also, another confusing point is that a CAW resembling myself I put in many wrestling games is also called just 'The Claw'.

I'd like to drop this username too. It's so boring...

Your computer is fast enough to run all those at full speed with texture filtering simultaneously?
