Ah ok, so it's a problem with my specs. Well nevermind then, it's a laptop i'm using so can't really upgrade. Will have to just give up on the N64 emulation idea and will only be able to play when i'm at home where my N64 actually is

why does that trailer remind me so much of ocerana of time? this better not be a remake. It's not a remake. It's just everyone moaned about wind waker so they done it more of a orcarina of time style Don't know if it's been mentioned, but retro studios wil be releasing Metroid Pinball for the DS......

Well done, I only got a D in further maths. I had to sit all 6 modules in one go though, so there was no chance for re-sit

Lucky I scraped my grades for uni none-the-less.

Well after trying Nemu64, PJ64 and 1964. Nemu seems to be the only one that will play anything well, it plays mario 64 near perfectly and banjo-kazooie seems alright - but it seriously crashes when i try to load some roms :S Will the plug-ins for PJ64 and 1964 make a significant difference? I have t...

If this allowed the gamecube to play all imports without the problems with freeloader it could be very tempting, not interested in it booting back-ups though.

I have a PAL Gamecube btw, so there is no region switch for it :(

Although all these type of auctions state they are selling purely a picture they are worded in such a way so as to trick someone into thinking it's an actual system

eBay's full of this crap and I hate having to shift through it all before I can actually find something genuine

Favourites are definitely From Autumn To Ashes and Poison The Well

More recently after getting their album Zao just bought another of their albums and will probably work my way through their back catologue :)

Like all of Ninty's handhelds, the DS will not be territorially restricted, so even if it doesn't see a European release you could always import it. But Square Enix would be daft not to. Nintendo haven't made any announcements on territorial locking as of yet AFAIK. You shouldn't just assume they w...

Nintendo are just protecting their IP, it's not that bad - all you're missing out in are a few homebrew clones of which there are far too many of. Their move may actually fuel some more originality in the homebrew scene. At least they were well within their rights to do this, they essentially threat...
