GroovyBee Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 Hmmm. I'm gonna need to buy more TV's. Then you'll need a compound eye (like insects) to view them all simultaneously. I look forward to seeing your next appearance in a B-movie (groan) as the octo-inty-playing baddie . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freewheel Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 It just seemed more natural to me to have it at the side because thirty year old plastic tends to be quite brittle. Making a neat looking slot on a sloped surface of brittle plastic would be even more problematic, given that its quite challenging on a straight side (for me at least). Now that you put it this way, I'm kinda slapping my head for not realizing this sooner. It pretty much has to be on the side, unless you use Coleco cart shells or something. As for rev's question - Just to cover off all bases in order, there are 4 possible situations here. In most compatible to least compatible order: Game is written "vanilla" and will run everywhere. Multicarts, burn to your own PCB, emulators, etc. No restrictions whatsoever. Game is written to take advantage of special hardware, but will still function on a plain system/PCB/whatever. Think of this like the Intellivoice situation - some games work just fine without it. Others do not, are are more like point 3. Game is written for specific hardware and will not play on any other hardware. This is what these 2 multicarts appear to be promising. If someone writes emulator support, then a ROM would eventually be playable there, too. But you can't use it on a CC, or some future multicart/PCB (unless the future ones are designed with this add-on hardware too). This is really just the equivalent of saying you need a PS4 to play PS4 games - you can't run them on an Xbone. Game is written with DRM. Absolutely none of 1-3 have anything to do with intentionally restricting you from playing the game however and wherever you want. There may be hardware requirements, but that's like having a PC game that requires 2GB of RAM. You need the hardware to play the game but you can play the game on whatever hardware you like. What DRM does is artificially restrict your copy of the game to run only on the hardware device "blessed" by the licensor. You cannot transfer, sell, backup, or do anything with this game, unless blessed by the owner. Essentially you are renting the game for the longer of a) your physical device lifetime, or b) them staying in business, willing to help, and not changing their licensing terms. That being said, I have yet to stumble upon a DRM mechanism that has not been broken, and given the size and computation limitations involved here (maybe they're loading the LTO with 2GB of RAM just to handle complex encryption routines?) I doubt any DRM in the INTV scene will last long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimpmaul69 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Always buy CIB. Then you never lose! Dont worry about wear and tear in your precious boxes, games are meant to be played, not displayed! Did I just say that? Gasp! then you need to play ever copy of mousetrap you have. And not just a boot test! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Yeah,im sure any drm or even any personalized ROM could be pirated/hacked. Im always hearing about modern consoles getting hacked and other stuff. It wont be by me though! I havent a clue how to do any programming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 then you need to play ever copy of mousetrap you have. And not just a boot test! Too late now, they are all about sold. Maybe 10 left or less. And those are spoken for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GroovyBee Posted October 14, 2014 Author Share Posted October 14, 2014 GroovyBee, I kindly take the free slots on all games as I wasn't active on AA when you did the pre-orders. There aren't any "free slots to take" as you call it. If you (or anybody else) want any of the games where a pre-order has closed just drop me a PM.
