GBAtemp.net Announces Temper Card!

[Opium]

Can we get pix of the GUI to confirm it? At least one... you say you have the hardware, and i know it doesn't take more than 3 minutes for you to transfer a picture from your digital camera to GBAtemp.

Costello would kill me lol. It's not finished. I'll check but I don't like the odds.

 

[tjas]

If it's real you guys are stupid.. why announce it on april 1st?

if (GBAtemper){
//give it the ability to play .swfs
//or other flash games
//give.NDS = ability to play flash games,etc at a reasonable FPS (no more than 12 or so)
}

Right now its impossible.. but.. you're making new hardware. Please make it possible! D:

Now i made myself feel bad by sounding like im interrogating you guys to do the impossible.

Thanks, i appreciate it man. However, this may be considered the impossible i just edited my post for.

HOPEFULLY FINAL EDIT: What is shaunj66 doing? Drinking beer while you guys are doing the work? xD *sigh* reminds me of a few people i know.

Yes, loosely based off it. I told you it's not finished yet. That's why we don't share things

*edit* doesn't use moonshell though

APRIL FOOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mehdi]

HAHAHAHAHA for a second I thought it was true!!!!!

 

[flai]

This would be cool if it wasn't blatantly an April Fool's joke. Ooops! Its just hit 12.00PM in Britain!

 

[enarky]

First april fool I fell for today (until I opened comments)... and I've been through three of them already. Does that tell you anything about the credibility of GBATemp for me?

if (GBAtemper){
  //give it the ability to play .swfs
  //or other flash games
  //give.NDS = ability to play flash games,etc at a reasonable FPS (no more than 12 or so)
}

You're aware that this if-statement does nothing and any good compiler would optimize it away?

 

[flai]

Nice fake skin there btw Opium. I have to say, it would be convincing if you hadn't taken it at such an awkward angle and posted it up at the smallest resolution possible...

 

[Sinkhead]

Maybe it is real and they only released it on AFD because they wanted to watch us arguing. Maybe they also wanted us to speculate about it's features so if one of us says something good they have not already thought of they can include it.

[WarmWoollySheep]

If it gave GBATemp updates while I played DS games, I would buy it.

hmmm he didn't say what language is used. In the given language each expression could have to be started with //

 

[The__B]

Hmm would have been better if they made this posts 2 days ago, then the joke would have had more impact then on 1 april

 

[Sinkhead]

It would be good if the card notified GBATemp what game you launched so your user page could record your stats and your most played games etc.
Also maybe it could report what game you were playing (it could tell when you quit because you would have to reset to menu) so you could get something like this:

[euqiddis]

sinkhead, that would mean they would have to be connected to the net the whole time.

 

[Sinkhead]

No, just connects when you launch a game. Mind you, there would be a bit of wait. Maybe it could be optional?

- Sam

EDIT: Actually, come to think of it, it's probably not a very good idea and it would be a bit pointless...

 

[Dragonlord]

Nice first april prank. A creative one since a long time ( got tired of the "RIAA shut us down" pranks

). A pity though as this idea by itself would haven been really interesting ( open source firmware... now that would be great

)
