why?
because most euro games, are multi language... i can read english very well, but i'm sure lots of euro people can't, and prefer to have the game on their primary language, rather than english.

Gah, why all the releases of the European versions of the US games?

Typical american way of thinking

No, no, no. You misunderstand me. If a US version is released, it's English. People in Europe read English. If a EURO version is released, it's English. People in the US read English. I don't see the need for 2 versions of English. I download whatever one comes first and forget the other version. Like Ninja Cop. When Ninja Five-O (The US version of Ninja Cop) I'm not downloading it because I've already got it in EURO. I'm not dissing EUROs. Sorry.

MaD_mAnIaC: Hmmm, yeah, I guess. But still, I'd rather have something new. Oh well.

looks alot like 720 (an old arcade game from teh late 80's) but with a scooter.

I doubt many will remember 720 though

jumpman17, you are wrong in thinking EURO = english. Typically EURO releases have 3 or 4 different languages (german, french, spanish etc).

Add to that the fact that Americans spell words like colour, centre, etc wrong, and you'll see that localisation of a game is quite important.

Now as far as ROM HaXoRs like yourself go, it means fuck all, but for the publishers who are trying to SELL these games, they have to make changes between releases.

It seems every time a EURO version of an old US game is released some nutter is on the messageboards going "hasn't this been released already"... perhaps it would be worth adding to the FAQ page - if there is one?

    on screen keys would be cool but the gba screen is pretty tiny though :(
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'd rather use emulation but it's cool regardless again the main point of the Touchscreen isn't just for buttons but for menu options
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    would be way better for menu options
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    although I have huge doubts anyone would be able to make homebrew that would give support for the touch screen
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    then again theres still people who develop games on systems as old as the nes for fun
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    (
    micromages is amazing btw)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I doubted 360 emulation would be possible
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    yet here we are seeing ps4 and even some (very experimental
    ) ps5 emulation
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ps5 emulation? Why
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I always thought Saturn emulation would straight up be impossible
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just the atchiture is insanely complex
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's why it annoys me when people rant about things being impossible when it comes to software some things should just be focused on more than others
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    because they want to flex their insane developer skills ofc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    We have ps5 exploits where's an article talking about ps5 emulation?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    if i wanted to play gb games on a touch screen device i would just use my phone
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    heres ps4/5
    emulation (it is far from playing actual games yet but its something) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qe71pCjC9U
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I thought PS4/5 and Xbox One emulation would be kind of easy since they basically just a PC
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    they sorta are a pc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
