Hmmm... and what's the news?

Why do you people like you exist too bad i don't feel the same for you are you just on here to pester people or what, and places like this are made for chatting about things like the wii. I didn't say i was a 360 it's just part of the topic, and it's pretty sad when people can't even make a topic without others getting emotional over it.

Good thing you told Costello what this forum is here for, otherwise he would not have known what the hell he FOUNDED it for.

, but i know for sure the 360 is $250 $100 now i have a hard time believing that. There was a difference with the price of the wii from all the rest, but now i wonder how things will play out this holiday. I wonder if a web page can be founded if someone creates it, and can they have patents on em too

P.S i know microsoft did this on purpose just like sony's hidden tilt controller all these years

doesnt say 250
just says 299
and its only 100 for a day

plus the core isnt a worthwhile investment cause buying the wireless controller, hard drive, wires, ect seperately is already more than 150 bucks
250 + 150 = 400, so the "price drop" doesnt really do anything anyways

No but i think your a fool, and where did i say all of this
blink.gif
lately im beginning to wonder about the sanity about the people in this room. do you thing something like that i don't, because i've seen the poor progress in japan...why would i even think such a thing? The wii won't touch their online, but they won't touch the wii shipment numbers this year alone.

P.S Do people really want one of these companies to actually fail? This thread is like more interesting to a lot of people

In Japan? Because the X360 is selling extremely poor in Japan. About 1000-5000 consoles per week. For comparison the PS2 regularly sells 15000-25000 units per week. Though that'll probably change now that the PS3 is out. You can find the numbers for last week here:

Even Kevin Perriera on AOTS in Toyko stated that the 360 is doing extreme lousy in Japan.

I'm sorry but, the 360 doesn't have many good games (much like the PSP) and the Wii is just better. Doesn't even slightly sway may choice. Still getting a Wii.

The PS3, in one day, outsold the sales of the 360 since the beginning of the year, IIRC. You can't say it sells extremely well, as compared to european and american numbers...

Now, let's see how the Wii fares.

Price Drop? Since when? All I know of Amazon selling the core for $100 on Thanksgiving...

Proof? If its true I may save up my cash instead of getting monkeyball or dbz.

Simple. Type in amazon.com into your browser and look to the right.
Sorry, but I had already done that. All I see is a "Vote for what you want discounted poll"
no 100% gurantee its a 360.
But seeing as it will l,ikely win I willsave up for that.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
    Karma177 @ Karma177: @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really...
