You have to mail all international mail at the post office as it is. You can't put in the boxes; those are for domestic mail only. A CD w/ a regular jewel case is around $4-$6 anywhere in the world. Letters, cards and other regular mail: can be sent internationally just by affixing the correct post...

I figured R8 was a cycle counter -- I just wanted to check that you intended it that way. Mostly I was surprised to see that you used the branch delay slot and load delays properly and efficiently ... very well done! :-) Some general emulation comments: One issue is that your register offsets (R9,R1...

When sending stickers and business cards, regular mail is just fine for anywhere. When sending the discs, etc. you'll probably need to send it AT the post office so they can have you fill out whatever customs declarations will be required. I think that they used to be sent overseas classified as &qu...

It's not wrong per se -- it's just missing any sort of context to describe what it's supposed to do... ie. You really should document your code with the parameters being passed in, the operations performed, and the output results. I'm curious, what is R8 used for? FYI, SH4 is backwards-compatible wi...

I'd suggest that you give the slackers another week before putting their allocations back up for grabs.

Where did the piece of code come from?

Stupid people rarely recognize it.

If they can be played on a computer, it's trivial to make a perfect reproduction.

That seems fair.

If the burns are infact correct, you probably have a DC that won't play CDRs.

I agree with a (very) few of the comments, in particular regarding the TK1 movies, and the shoulder buttons -- although IMHO those are hardly fatal flaws. The overall reviews clearly aren't what the general public feels -- especially when it comes to the general sentiment of "graphics not much ...

Rand, kick their ass. My perception of the general public's reaction to b!DC is clearly at odds with the sum total of the reviews available at gamefaqs. I'm sure that some people out there agree with those reviews -- and it's also quite possible that I'm way off base with my understanding of how th...

I'm not sure that gamefaqs is worth your time -- here's a sample of the reviews posted for b!DC titles. If you happen to agree with the scoring and the comments from the reviews, then by all means, use gamefaqs are your first stop when looking for game information. OTOH, if you think that their revi...

You and/or your friend need only to enter "dreamcast launch price" into Google for your answer.

Metafox et al, This is a bit borderline for the topic, but here's some background that's missing: Most distributors require 50% or higher discounts to carry products -- i.e. A $40 game in a store generates less than $20 *MAX* for a publisher per unit -- usually it's far less. Notable exceptions are ...

I can: I know WHEN they had it working on a stock DC, and I know HOW they found out to do so as well.

All that needs to be said has already been -- move on.

Rand.

Sega's not without their share of questionable claims either -- anyone remember "Blast Processing?"

Rand.

Yes, that's true.

Rand.

Marcus did concede that it could have been a couple days after that which he put the information up, as he understandably can't remember if he updated his webpage with the information right away. He said his information came from reverse engineering the Datel Action Replay disc. (so that means I've...

We never had schematics for the bleemPods -- at least I never heard about any. There were a couple bleemPods that had a socket for the programmable chip (instead of being soldered and gloopsticked) but I have no idea what happened to those. The other stuff was all just in the design and planning sta...
