    Tetris Tournament Instructions, Group Assignments, and Rules

    Will the next round be the final one? Cross-region 3p-battle? Or will region 1 have one more battle first? If the latter, would it still finish next weekend? I'm asking since I'll be working weekends starting May. So if it all ends next week then it's not an issue, but if the final round will be...

    Tetris Tournament Instructions, Group Assignments, and Rules

    Well you would not play just one game to decide the winner of said group, you would continue to play until one of the players in the group have noted 2, 3 or 4 wins. (depending on what will be decided) As for disconnects I'm assuming rule #7 still applies.

    Well I don't want to be the group leader, so if you want to be that's fine with me. Or ask HtheB or other member of the group. ^^ Btw how many rounds will be played to decide the winner of the group..? Is it up to the group to decide that as well? Personally I'd like at the very least Best of 7...

    Tetris Tournament Instructions, Group Assignments, and Rules

    Yep, I'm aware. I've already changed my settings back to the default and practiced a little bit, it effectively cuts my performance in half. 40 lines takes about double time with default settings. Well I hope everyone will honor the rules, but there's not really a way to check it I guess.. A...

    Confused about this as well. But I think it means we can't change the advanced style settings such as Delayed Auto Shift and Auto Repeat Rate and must reset this to setting one if we unlocked the other ones.. Which is a shame since this is what allows for fast game play and you will see no pro...

    DS #4916: Tetris Party Deluxe (USA)

    First, are you checking the leaderboards for the correct online mode? World Battle without items is first on the list, but the default mode which most people are playing is World Battle WITH items (second option)

    DS #4916: Tetris Party Deluxe (USA)

    AP issues aside overall impression of what I've played thus far has not been great. Non-animated first screen looks crappy, the one with the tetris logo, fireworks and castle. And when I played master mode it often fails to rotate while moving. Kind of sluggish controls and slow DAS.

    Hacking Fire Linker 128Mb guestion!

    Just got one of these today. It works fine, but I wonder if there's a way to clear SRAM on the flash cart. I've run into issues when changing games. For example on Super Mario Advance 4, I started playing on slot 1 and the world map started shaking uncontrollably up and down and mario never...

    Backing up GBC saves

    Yeah I checked consolegoods earlier, they don't seem to have the device in stock anymore. But I found exactly what I was looking for right here: http://www.hkems.com/product/gb/gba-tr.htm for 19.99 USD. Not sure what the shipping costs would be, and the whole ordering process seems a bit weird...

    Best flashcart(s) as of 2010?

    I've had a few flashcards since I got my DS, here's my opinion. GBA Movie Player V2 (CF) - I got this for my GBA to play pocketnes and goomba color, and some Ti calculator emu. Also used it to watch anime (converting was a pain though) and play some music. The price was crazy at the time. With...

    Backing up GBC saves

    Hello, While waiting for HeartGold/SoulSilver to come out for the DS I played quite a bit of the original Pokemon Gold for Game Boy Color. Now, pretty much everyone I know have had their battery dry out on these old games. I'm still pretty amazed that mine still saves perfectly fine after all...

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds

    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
