  1. Are these two your submissions? Thanks Yes The Xenophobe is just the 7800 lable (which looks a lot better IMO) so if you don't want to accept it thats OK I'm still working on a few ideas too
  2. Never heard that one before. NES resolution has always been 256x240. And we see no artifacting because we have PAL carts to go in our PAL NES's Shocking I know
  3. I'm not a Jag person (yet) so I don't know if you're using RCA jacks or what but if your not it could be the differences between PAL and NTSC channel frequencies The sound for NTSC is transmited on a duifferent frequencie to PAL so you can pick up the Sound or the picture but not both. Of course if your using RCA then somthing is definitly wrong

  5. Actualy vertical and horizontal scrolling are simple, it's when you do diagonal scrolling that it gets tricky Of course it is, but I wasn't referring to that. There were mappers that didn't allow vertical scrolling, while others did. I really hate to quote technical docs but vertical scroling is built into the console.

  7. I'v been playing Captain Skyhawk today and the high score screen reminded me of a tech demo that used every availible sprite to make crazy patterns. I know everyone will say SMB3 so I'll say upfront that I already know that one What other NES games push the limits of what the nes can do ?

  9. If I croak it before 2023 it will probably end up back in the local thrift store. After that I'll write a will and instruct that all my many combat carts are smashed into 1 billion pices and their ashes scattered at sea Upon my demise I would like the games to be sold off so other people can get some enjoyment out of them (Unless my future wife or kids enjoy them too ) Atari forever (unless you've got an Eprom in there, then it should be "Atari for no less than 20 years" )
  10. I'm looking into making NES mapper0 boards. And making your own PCB's is fairly easy (and cheap) I'm sure you could do a small run of 7800 boards to gauge interest. and get somone to make some nice profesional boards if theres enough interest. I know I'd be willing to pay more for a "real" 7800 game
  11. I had no idea the US version had different label art. I followed chrisbid's link and boy is that US sonic lame.
  12. It only took me a week to figure out I'm loading X and storing A And I want to code a game? Could take a few years at that rate
  13. in no particular order: Kaboom! - 2600 SMB3 - NES Boulder Dash - C64 (original platform ????) Asteroids - Arcade REZ - Dreamcast DDR - Arcade Pikmin - Gamecube Doom - IBM P.C Perfect Dark - N64 Galaga - Arcade
  14. I am still working on the patches, so maybe that's some extra motivation too.
  15. I'm still strugling with the reverse gravity. Controling the pods underground is damn hard when you pick them up and they have to swing all the way around. I end up losing control and getting flung into a wall. But I'm not going to give up until I see the "ShowMaster Subroutine" And it would be cool if there was another contest.
  16. I love reading his diary in Paper Mario Very funny. They've known they've been neglecting him for a long time.
  17. Of all the people who have asked for people here to program their ideas for them this one has to be the most ..... recent Actually I think the Jag is the only platform (covered here) where a team effort might be a good idea.
  18. Ahh the call of the wild You got some great games there. I hate "going back" for games. There will always be somone who will beat you to it unless your the first person through the doors in the morning (and I'm not a morning person) Anyway good luck with your Atari hunting.
  19. For some reason SunSoft made some really shit lables. All the lables I'm looking at redesigning are SunSoft. gamerz, do you have any lable templates, fonts etc.... to help us out ?
  20. Last release here was Tony Hawk 3. Standout games : Goldeneye Perfect Dark Conker's BFD Lylat Wars Zelda: OoT Zelda: Majora's Mask Paper Mario Super Mario 64 Jet Force Gemini Donky Kong 64 Resident Evil 2 Kirby 64 And thats just from the 19 I own. I'm sure I'll find many more top notch games that get little to no respect. I'd rather pay $99 for a solid Cart than $99 for a flimsy sliver of plastic. Yeah the controller isn't very well made but the design is perfect. poor polygon performance? So you bought a SATURN? WTF?
  21. Why are there different versions of ROMs ? You'd think that once all the EPROMS on the arcade board where dumped and named that you wouldn't need to do it again. I mean the data isn't going to change significantly, or AT ALL, in between mame releases. So WTF?????
  22. One of the best finds I'v ever come across Super Mario 64 Donky Kong 64 Jet Force Gemini Goldeneye Lylat Wars Mortal Kombat 4 Zelda OoT Zelda Majora's Mask (Gold game pak) 2 controler pak's (1 with a Turok 2 lable) all $5 each, CIB and in great condition :D :D I already had a compleate Zelda OoT but couldn't pass it up for $5. Anyone know if the Gold Majora's Mask is common ? I'v only ever seen the Grey ones.
  23. When someone gets closer than ~500 points, I will start trying to improve again. 1300 to go
  24. wave 12 - 5291 Just ~ 1400 to go
