You could always try best electronics, I guess they do ST parts/components as well (since you are in canada), alternatively you could try rs components, I think they might do some US/North Am. psu components

All is gud 'ere in da big smoke (londonistan)....what new nessi game is your little one playing now (apart from the obvious)

Keep at it Slimboy....Hows it going anyway slimboy

Doesn't this also stop some forms of piracy, since you will only be able to play the game you purchased on the machine you first played the game on (i.e. you won't be able to play that game on any other sony system) I think this is some sort of software protection system preventing illegal copies flooding the marketplace The thing about not being able to use second hand games (or used games to you people) is a side benefit (to MS's games publishers/developers) I think this was a move by software devs/pubs against sony, the idea being that if sony didn't agree to this (i.e the online verification system) then their platform wouldn't be supported I think a similar system is already in place on tablet pc's and mobile phone apps (i.e. you can only download the content on the device your'e going to use the content on, again to prevent a used app market and also to stop piracy to some effect)

Actually, cybermorph and doom do work (at least on the windsucks version), was playing with them yesterday Am wondering if this 'alpine' option also features a memory editor, so i can find out where in PC mem the jaguar memory is emulated (using artmoney)

Not too sure about the former since 'better hardware' doesn't neccessarily equate to 'better games', the sinclair spectrum proved that principle wrong big time, after all it was the best supported system for games in the EU/UK from 1982 (it's birth) till the death of home computing in 1993/4 (when atari pulled out of hardware making and commodore went under)

The industry IS dying....Here's the linky http://www.newrepublic.com/article/112258/atari-bankrupt-video-game-industry-refuses-heed-history Isn't there an old saying that goes 'people learn from their mistakes'....perhaps this also should apply to entire industries as well

An interesting article about Atari's demise and the lessons NOT LEARNT by the rest of the very industry Atari helped create (thanks to twatter for the linky) http://www.newrepublic.com/article/112258/atari-bankrupt-video-game-industry-refuses-heed-history

Do you have something against those games...

Just incase i forgot, we don't need more hardware releases there's too much hardware in circulation...after all do you hear Mr or Ms's gamer (or consumer) asking for MORE HARDWARE, I haven't heard of postmen/women getting hernia's from taking sackfulls of snail mail to MS, Nint. or Sony asking for more hardware or that those companies email servers keep crashing because something approaching the worlds population (over 7 bn) keeps asking these companies for more hardware......I don't see it and i don't hear it...so why's it happening We need new (old) platforms to support, perhaps if people switched over to classic gaming and just skipped modern gaming, then the current hardware makers might just think 'why are we doing more hardware when the market isn't asking for it' and the current games producers or pubs might think 'why are we selling that at 60 pounds a throw and getting fewer and fewer units sold when x game or y game is flying of the shelves and doesn't cost nearly as much'

Perhaps as someone said, the future likes with independent programmers/developers and homebrewers Perhaps the gaming industry is a microcosm of the retail market (and that is suffering too), i.e. you have all these shops with all these staff yet little stock is being sold, the same thing is happening in gaming, Games devs/publishers have all these offices and staff and ongoing projects yet what they have online or in the stores and shops just isn't selling or shifting...Two bad or flawed business models that are in DIRE NEED for an upgrade (gaming industry II anyone)

Perhaps the present computer and gaming platforms need to look at the model mobile phone and tablet pc gaming has taken, i.e. lower priced games but more sold You don't need to be an alan greenspan or a ben bernanker to figure that out As for why nintendo and sony's portables failing in the market, simply because they can't compete with mobile phones and tablet pc's, not just for content but also services/features etc, the only way those companies will be able to compete with mobiles and tablet pc's, is to incorporate those like features and services into existing hardware and get app developers to start supporting nintendo or sony portables, the onlty way thats going to happen is by opening up 3rd party development to lower cost/priced content (both games and non games...if nintendo or sony want to compete with mobile phones and tablet pcs)

Linky only http://uk.games.yahoo.com/blogs/plugged-in/tumultuous-game-industry-rocked-wave-studio-closures-235700238.html ...And even the hardware companies are losing money (like NINTENDO)....interesting, perhaps thats because there's too much hardware in circulation and people are not going to or aiming to upgrade anytime soon Or is it that mobile gaming on moby's and tabs are the in thing (and costs less then a console/pc game) or that people are ditching the traditional desktops to more mobile gaming If thats the case, perhaps the likes of M$$$$ and Sony might wanna hold of realeasing their 'next gen' PS's or Xbox's till the market improves (i give it 2016 or 2018 earliest) As for more game dev's closing their doors or game pub's going under (as indicated in the linky), perhaps kickstarter or homebrewing is the new way of getting your game into the marketplace Perhaps one way of reviving the market is a combination of homebrewing and the APX concept (for those that actually remember APX: Atari Program eXchange) or perhaps a revial of the PD libraries that existed way back when might be the way to go I think the market has come to the realisation that your not going to shift x million units of x game or y game week or month in week/month out and the same goes for hardware, these companies need to be more creative and adventurous in selling their product After all, we are not in the best situation economically, so these companies need to do something to revive the market....i.e lower priced product, budget ranges (i.e like the old codemasters/mastertronic labels) of a try and buy option, i.e you pay say 2 pound to download a small section of the game, if you like it you can download a full version at a discounted price (say 25/30 pc off)

200USD for an Atari 8bit.....what's it made of....GOLD or TANZANITE, there again it is ebay so you pay overpriced ebay prices Best stick to car booting (or flea markets/garage/yard sales to most of you people)

All that seems to have happened is that one majority shareholder in the holding company (the company formerly known as infowhatsitsname) has been replaced with another majority shareholder in the holding company....nothing else has changed, the big A will still be sold off to the highest bidder Perhaps if they want to fleece goodnatured atari fans, they'll flog it off on evilbay (i guess it will sell like the boxed air raid did, but this time we are talking about telephone number stylee figures, i.e. 8-9 figure values)
