this is a post from gamefaqs:

I'm sure you've played ROMs before. It's about all this board ever wants to discuss it seems. But do you ever wonder how the ROMs come into being? They're exact duplicates of the data on cartridges of course. Generally, the day a game is released, or the day after, someone who has the right hardware buys or borrows the new game, copies it, and distributes it on the internet. EBGames has an interesting policy that lets you return a game within 7 days if you don't like it, so sometimes they can do this free of charge.

But... sometimes, the ROM appears on the internet before (sometimes -well- before) release date. This usually happens with high-demand games. They are shipped to stores early, and the stores aren't allowed to sell them before release date, or they get a strict fine. So the release group's representative, typically male, aged 14-17, has contacts who work at these stores who get the game early. All they have to do is go to the store at the appointed time with the hardware, go to the back room, meet the employee, and make a copy, without anyone knowing any better.

But in exchange for this privilege of dumping the game before street date, they are required to perform a favor to the employee who is risking his job to make this transaction. That favor is, generally, a blowjob. So the next time you play a ROM... take a moment to think about the teenaged boy who got down on his knees in the backroom of a Gamestop to bring this release to the masses on the internet.

you seem to know much about this topic. I'm going to guess that you are involved in the dumping process. where you giving the blow job, or reaping its benefits?

lets hope for my imaginations sake neither

For those who are not aware, the game will be shipped on the 16, but it cannot be sold until the 22nd, it's most likely that it'll appear around the 16th because you know copies are going to get leeked.

Don't tell me people can't wait a few days for a game man..

I CAN'T FRICKIN' TAKE IT ANYMORE!

I refresh GBATemp every effin 15 minutes and haven't done ANYTHING else today. I'm on a verge of a nervous breakdown.
Oh why, this is so damn horrible.

I really need a RSS reader with an alarm. Any ideas? :'(

NonStopInTheMix · Apr 14, 2007

hmms well since i think we've all accepted the fact we have to wait AT LEAST until APril 16th and today is only April 14

so lets jsut talk plainly about pokemon haha

anybody choose their starters yet?
will you use a trainer to make your pokemon insanely strong?
will flashcarts be compatible with Pokmon Battle Revolution for WII?
will nintendo ever make the game speed ANY FASTER?

*refreshes the screen again* DAMMIT still no dump =(

pristinemog · Apr 14, 2007

I'm choosing Piplup. I love penguins and I can't get over the fact that its last stage is Water/Steel.

Sil3n7 · Apr 14, 2007

Im gonna choose chimchar
Im NOT going to use a trainer
It probibly will not be compatible with PBR because it isnt with the (J) versions

*goes back to refreshing the screen

MaHe · Apr 14, 2007

Yeah, Turtwig. Unless my brother changes his mind, then I'll throw a coin to decide between Piplup or Chimchar.

will you use a trainer to make your pokemon insanely strong?

No cheating from me.

will flashcarts be compatible with Pokmon Battle Revolution for WII?

Depends. If the support for Battle Revolution is already integrated in the game, certainly. If it will be a downloadable executable that reads the save-data off the card, certainly not.

will nintendo ever make the game speed ANY FASTER?

Doubt it.

Akoji · Apr 14, 2007

Well when i played the (J) version i picked up the fire monkey (sorry i played in japanese , i don't know the names) Now i think in the US i will try Piplup since he seem really usefull , he can do the fly HM and the Surf one all in the same pokemon , and he can later do Ice damage which is rare...

Sinkhead · Apr 14, 2007

I'm going to pick Piplup as well, it has awesome moves.
