    Hacking Bad acekard 2is from modchipcentral

    I think I got a bad Acekard 2.1 from that vendor, as well. When I put the Acekard in my DS, it showed blank data in the fields where a game's icon and name usually show up (the first screen after Nintendo's disclaimer). When I put my working Acekard in without a microsd, it still shows the...

    Phantasy Star

    The gameplay is better because menus are easier to navigate, combat has better flow, and PS4 has aged better in general than PS2. I don't really care much for flashy graphics either, but at least I haven't turned any of my posts into a personal attack on someone else just because I had a...

    Triumphant!!

    Can you play audio on a dingoo and use an emulator simultaneously? Because that's what I'd like to do with a portable device. Also, how much storage space have you used/have total?

    Phantasy Star

    I was talking more about the gameplay. The graphics in PS2 weren't really much worse than in PS4, but the gameplay got consistently better throughout the series.

    Search Function dead?

    Doesn't work for me. Everybody probably already knows, but you can always just go to google, and type in whatever you want to search for, then type "site:gbatemp.net" That's how I found this topic, and why I didn't make a new one.

    GCN Gamecube save hacking

    I lost my Gamecube memory cards when I moved, and I had to buy a new one to play on my Wii, and I didn't really want to redo all the grinding in Baten Kaitos. I made some saves and transferred them to an SD Card, using my softmodded Wii, and I'm pretty sure I found the correct offsets for gold...

    Robin Williams named his daughter 'Zelda' based off the Legend

    Zelda's a fine name. Also, I like Moxie Crimefighter. Although more in the abstract. It's a good comic book character name, not so much real person name. I heard Robin Williams on the radio somewhere, and he was recounting how his daughter saw World's Greatest Dad, but he didn't tell her...

    Merry Tempmas

    Merry Tempmas, everyone! Too bad that Tiny Tim reference is so general. Maybe we could make a Tempmas Carol? Or am I crazy? Wait, I know I'm crazy. I'm arguing with myself in this post.

    Pen VS Pencil

    Yeah, I still have a discontinued Parker fountain pen. I'd still use it if I could find decent ink for it (it uses capsules).

    is this good?

    The music emulation sounds pretty bad, from the videos, and hopefully his major gameplay issues arise from the video maker being terrible, and not from crippling control issues. Looks pretty interesting, but it might not be the best way to emulate Genesis games on a TV. I think the Dingoo and...

    Phantasy Star

    The story doesn't really matter (there are some connections between the storylines, but it's four separate stories), but Phantasy Star IV is so much better than the rest it might be hard to play the rest after playing that. On a more or less unrelated note, I was pretty upset when I found out...

    Help me identify a game?

    Awww. I was hoping I'd get to be helpful for once and answer the question! Well, maybe it'll be of interest that Hulu has Fist of the North Star (I think the whole series) on their site. http://www.hulu.com/fist-of-the-north-star Subbed, not dubbed, and crazy as hell.

    Pen VS Pencil

    In general, I prefer pens, particularly non ballpoint, or I think they make superfine ballpoints which write more smoothly. I also like fountain pens with a traditional nub. However, there are times when pencil is better, like when I know I'm going to make mistakes, or when I'm drawing, since...

    So you think rap sucks, do ya ? ? ?

    You are correct, sir, I was not around in '76. However, my biggest issue with any genre of music, is when a band fails to create its sound. Sure, the Ramones had a really pop sound, almost bubblegum pop. But I defy you to refrain from enjoying The Blitzkrieg Bop. Not everything has to be...

    Muppets?

    The poll made me happy. 100% yea! (yes, you spelled yea wrong) Muppets kick ass. Just look at Yoda. He was one of only two Jedi never to lose limbs or be killed by an enemy (and, yes, I'm counting Obi Wan). And he made it through five episodes.

    burn notice

    I love it. It's basically just New MacGyver, which means it's basically a remake of the best show ever (although Michael Westen makes better use of science than MacGyver ever did).

    What do you use to listen to tunes.

    I use Winamp in classic mode, mostly because I've got some skins I like and it's nice and comfortable. If I were less lazy I might check out some others, but the system requirements are pretty low, and it plays well in the background when I'm gaming. So it suits my needs well. Oh, and I use...

    [Essentials] Comic Strips

    Definitely Calvin and Hobbes. Also Bloom County, Dilbert and Non-Sequitur. Can I add online comics in strip format? If so: Sinfest, Penny Arcade and Ozzy and Millie definitely have to go on the list. Honestly, Sinfest is like the perfect strip for people to graduate to after reading Calvin...

    I was listening to Anthrax while I was cooking just now. MMM, Anthrax stir-fry.

    Homebrew Want To Run Dolphin - What Computer Should I buy?

    Well, if you want a new desktop, you should definitely build your own. Assuming you're marginally computer literate, although, if you want to run emulators, especially more modern ones, you pretty much have to be, so we're going to make that assumption (note: building your own computer means...

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.

    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive

    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.
