For as long as I've been here, and a part of the dc scene, I have yet to see ANY petition written here or elsewhere actually work. Then you haven't been paying attention: http://www.dreamcast-scene.com/index.php/Main/ShikigamiNoShiroPetition http://www.dreamcast-scene.com/index.php/Main/BorderDownP...

The footage from MGS cutscenes have never been FMV, and Hideo Kojima stated that they never will be. That's running on the actual game engine. Kojima's studio has always had a knack for pushing Sony hardware.

As far as I know there are no technical limitations that could prevent this. No, but like I said in the post above, the changes to the code would likely be more major than a small patch would allow, at least for the present titles. Future titles could be built with the Wii in mind, maybe even set u...

Yes, the Wii is backwards compatible with the Gamecube out of the box. However, the Wii remote doesn't work when the Wii is set in Gamecube mode. Because of that would take more than patches to get the Gamecube games to have Wii functionality. Yeah, but why not? I mean, the console isn't even launc...

Nintendo could just allow the developers to patch the GC executables with Wii functionality and distribute these patched files online, like MS does with Xbox titles for the 360. The Xbox 360 game patches are individual emulators that allow for Xbox games to be played on the 360. I didn't think that...

Alright. I have a way to prove you printed it. Take a picture of a few pages of the magazine. Will do. I put off this due to me not wanting to have pictures of the first printing of the magazine out there, since I want to be able to catch the guy who stole them - as at this point, I'm pretty sure t...

I think everyone--especially you yourself--would just be a lot happier if you came out and admitted that you never did manage to put the magazine together. That 120 magazines did not get lost in the mail, that there was no "first printing," that you have no formatted proof, that you proba...

I didn't want that information made public because I'm not sure how or when exactly it's all going to come to pass. If I wanted that information public, I would have posted it in a public forum. Anyway, yeah. I want to get the reprint out as soon as possible. It is all bearing now on when I get the ...

WindowsCE has been open source for years now. DCiberia's method requires the use of the old CELoader program from boob! This loader requires the WindowsCE library to be present in order to run on the Dreamcast. Since it's illegal to distribute the WindowsCE library, this puts us back at square one.

I'll never understand why you chose to push your cause at a videogame forum.

I don't see too many games or fangames relating to circumcision.

Yeah, I saw this at IGN yesterday:

It doesn't sound very reliable to me. I'll wait for Nintendo's official announcement rather than complaining about a speculated price point.

You have to admit it was a hell of a lot better then 64 The Nintendo 64 was the greatest console ever created. So, no, I won't admit to that at all.

Well, since there's a lot of "I won't name this" <wink> type stuff in your post, I'm locking this.

It could cause damage to someone's drive if they read your post and tried to fill in the blanks without having any idea what they are doing.

I'm not a fan of his more zany style parodies. I'm glad that Albuqerque and Genius and France were the last songs on the CD, as I either stop the CD at that point, or skip past them if I have the CD on repeat.
