Well...erm....nope. That's a no.

Nope, haven't ever seen any, unfortunately.

Well I gave away like 250 of the disc-only versions through NUON-Dome. AFAIK VM Labs did have more but I have no idea how many, or how many of the complete, boxed versions were made and released.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I updated the NUON DVD player comparison page over at NUON-Dome. Would have had it up sooner but my HD crashed before I had a chance to upload it. [/url]

Gorf Pluz and Gorf 3D are two different projects. Pluz is being done by Force Design and 3D by 3D Stooges Software. Terance is on both development teams. Could be where you're getting confused

Cool, thanks for that. I never added the others because I wasn't 100% sure of the details. I'll have to do an update now -Kevin

NO CHANCE!

No problem. Glad you like the site. The only game with regional lockout is Crayon Shin-Chan 3, which only works on the Korean N591, like you mentioned. All the rest of the games work on all machines, much like how Jag games work on both PAL and NTSC machines.

For NTSC' date=' the Samsung DVD-N501 is definitely the best - MP3 and CDR capabilities, improved VLM and can play downloadable homebrew games. For PAL the Samsung DVD-N504 is the best, but quite rare. The N505 is slightly more common but lacks NUON controller ports. Though they can be hacked on. The N501 can be hacked to be region free (see this link), but it cannot do PAL to NTSC conversion. So it can only handle DVD's from other NTSC regions such as Japan. I don't believe any NUON DVD players were released in Australia - only the US, Europe and Korea as far as I know. The Motorola Streamaster (a NUON-enhanced set top box) was test marketed in Australia, however. http://www.nuon-dome.com/readrev/is3compare.html

Note I said "most people"

Also make sure the in-game volume is turned all the way up. You can do this by pausing the game, pressing A for Music or B for Sound effects. Move left and right to adjust the volume. Sounds like that could be the problem since you're only having trouble with this one game.

Yeah, you're thinking about the RCA DRC480N. Unfortunately it's kind of a lobotomized NUON player - it has the VLM built in and it runs at a higher res than the Samsung N501, but it has no controller ports and won't run commercial games. But it will play homebrew games, which you can control using the remote. Kind of a cool footnote in NUON history, but not a very useful player for gaming. It is my main DVD player in my living room, though, and works very well.

You're welcome I'm just glad most people didn't try to just turn around and re-sell them on eBay. Then I would have been

I've got both

It's actually an RPG, not a platformer.

The Cranberries

I like the sound of that!

Not sure how much research you've done on the Net, but here's the info from the Jaguar FAQ on how to wire up a rotary controller to the Jaguar controller: I've done the 2600 driving controller hack and it works OK, but the encoder on that Warrior looks pretty sweet. If you get it up and working let us know, it might be worth tracking one of those down to hack up Also, rather than try to hack up a Genesis controller, it would probably be easier to try and adapt that rotary encoder to a Jaguar controller.
