As of today I can't find any info that it occurs with the cart.. i.e. something for them to fix. What IS findable out there on that Github issue site for now says the opposite: "I had the same issue with the EU and JP ROMS from the smokemonster set, but not with the EU cart". But yeah if you, or anyone does confirm the issue with the cart, log it down and send it in and help everyone out.

You talking about this re: Bubble Bobble pausing on its own? https://github.com/SmokeMonsterPacks/Mega-Sg-Jailbreak/issues/41 That Github is for jailbreak issues.. so we then go back to the question of does Analogue even support the jailbreak functionality of loading a Bubble Bobble rom? I think not. Someone would have to verify if the same issue occurs on an actual Bubble Bobble SMS cart (and judging from one sentence in that github, it doesn't appear so), then there'd be the basis of a complaint to the company about the product. I agree it should be looked at eventually, but marketing/support-wise, it's beyond their purview. Just saying. :p

Did you like it better last time when Analogue announced the awesome jailbreak info for the NT Mini?? Oh that's right they never did! lol Not sure what you're getting frustrated about.. but don't say "like everybody else" because the majority of us here are just fine.

Geezus H you're going to make him NOT want to do it. If you are sure a JB is coming from the goodness of Kev's heart.. well great. Now keep your $180 refund thoughts to yourself and just enjoy what you get, and patiently wait.. or don't purchase it. No one cares. Kev already got soured on the TG16 due to individual comments who were in the minority but loud enough for him to notice. Just saying.

It's too bad Kev was so generous this last time giving away his years-long work for free, that it triggers a number of demanding consumers who now expect it.

On that note what would Kevtris' 2600 Core on the NT-Mini (had he ever released the cart adaptor) count as? Us dozens want to know. It's pretty funny how as time goes on we get so much variation between real hardware, hardware emulation, software emulation, form factors, functionality, both homemade and commercial, and everything in-between.. and in this case all to play old VCS games. I love it.

I'd be curious what that is.. because my feeling is if snipe a tattered 2600 Combat Cart with $1000, I am going to win that auction unless someone else happens to bid $1001+

Wow nice & rude. Sorry it "doesn't help" you bub.. but these people are trying to help answer your question with info. You could phrase it better than that. FYI most people here are able to play everything they're showing you on cart. It's not their fault you're clueless about that.

heh.. "property". Did you pay them for all the food & clothing they've given you for the past 17 years?

I think it's about as exciting as the announcement of Madden 2010.

Do any of you guys prefer playing the "Crazy" graphics over the regular "3D" graphics?

Nah.. far too common since everyone and their brother had Mike Tyson's Punchout. I actually think the Mr. Dream one is a little rarer. But yeah of course I love PunchOut. I can beat the NES/SNES ones with ease and was always a fan of the arcade version even before the NES one was out. I sucked at it though since it took money to practice it

And that urgent necessity is why you paid like 400% over what you should have. Just ribbing you man But seriously though, overpaying for cables like HDMI, Ethernet, etc, etc. is one of the brick and mortars stores biggest rip-offs.. they totally rape you and it doesn't matter where you go. monoprice.com is the bomb.

I dont think playing this rom in Mame makes a difference in the world. First of all, it's just a hack.. of Nintendo's Donkey Kong. 2nd. for actual customers, having this rom available in mame does not conflict with purchashing the hack. The customers who fall into this category are extremely limited in the first place (a. have the arcade cabinet, and; b. the technical ability to put in a board with it). And for those people who want it, let me tell you that playing it in Mame is NOT going to stop them from getting it for their actual arcade machine. I mean come on, is emulation in Mame on their computers a suitable substitute for arcade collectors? Definitely not.. Arcade collectors are some of the biggest anti-Mame snobs around! But yeah.. most of the people who play this in mame exclusively will probably never own a cab in the first place.. let alone a DK/dkjr cab they'll get to put this in.

"Hurray we won"?

Don't worry about it.. it's just the old standard Nintendo way of putting some kind of score/tracking in their games to make the "game" playable. For that matter what the heck is a "Brain Age" (in Brain Age)? Or a 1240g "Brain Weight" mean in Big Brain Academy? I think the answer is to just think of it as a videogame score and relax

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XOU0W6XO You can make that video anywhere in the world. Ask a bunch of people the same questions, then depending how funny you want it, only show the ones who get it wrong. ..or if you want it boring, keep the ones who answer correctly also.. It's the ol' standard

What a major ripoff

It's only becoming a hassle for you because you're acting clueless. Your router manual/user guide (available in pdf format on the site) will tell you how to update the firmware. But basically in a nutshell you log onto the router interface, go to Administration portion, and usually there's a "firmware upgrade" section where you can choose the .bin file (hopefully you go the right one.. at this point who knows), and then click "upgrade". How bout you go read the user guide? That's about all the help you're gonna get as far as that goes.. you're on your own

What the heck for? Like all the Wii games, they'll be many of them in the stores so there's zero need to pre-order. When you want it just walk in and buy it.

Wii pwning da n00bz

Pointless. I personally have every single video game I've ever owned from the 70's until now. I'll never give them up. Also I have basically every single rom & iso for almost every major u.s. console taking up gigs and gigs of space over many hard drives. Most of them can be called up on a whim on any xbox or pc scattered around the house. It'll never replace the real things. But I'm not about to limit myself from them. Let me just say when I get an inkling to play Gates of Thunder, I fire up an xbox and turn on the mednefen-PCE emulation and play it there. If push comes to shove though, it's also nothing to break out the Turbo-grafx 16 & CD attachment and the cd and play it there as well. I got the real thing. I got the emu'd version. And what.

IF you could. All this time however, you couldn't. There is absolutely zero cheating on 360 XBLive to "cut down" as you say. Right. as I said above, it's tiny. However, I don't get what you mean when you say "pirates aren't going to pay for anyway"? Of course they payed for Live if they want to use it. Again, that's the ONLY thing they pay for! Can't bootleg that access. You gotta pay for Live to get on Live, and that's about the only thing MS has stopped.

It should also cut down on online mods.. oh wait there is none. And there isn't any 360 online cheating either. If there was, I'd like you to tell me how because I'd do it in a flash Not everyone's account has been banned. Put it this way I have 3 360's, 2 are modded. Neither are banned. It's not known exactly what MS has found, but they'll eventually figure it out. Just hang out and wait.. And yeah.. Live was the only thing pirates paid for anyway (annual subscription fee, downloaded games, etc.) so really all MS has done is cut off that revenue stream as tiny as it may be. Pirates can still utilize their consoles and download and play bootlegged games to their hearts content including LAN play, etc.
