if you have to take it from... dunno, how is it called? the bureau of duty? probably not, but if they have it there, youll have to open it and they might confiscate it + its most likely going to the police and stuff. depending if they can read or not, you might be able to sell it as a sd card :/ but you might be in trouble

Come on guys ... Golden Sun is great and the story is interesting but ... calling it "epic" is pushing it a bit.

Anyway! Waiting for a hex fix.
This.

It was a great couple games attached to a pretty mediocre story. And they are both known for their tendency to ramble with pages of unnecessary text expounding on the simplest details that a seven year old couldn't miss.

The intro is as bad as the first games. Even if you say you know how to operate summons or put on a bloody hat, they will give the turotial any way. Then drone on and on with more of their trademark useless dialogue.

I'm disturbed that Kraden not only failed to die from old age, but wasn't executed by a mob for being the cause of everything wrong in the world. He dropped a bunch of kids into a situation he personally knew was dangerous, goaded them into doing his work, shirked any responsibility over it, and contributed absolutely no help. In fact, the only thing he ever succeeded at was being taken hostage. And that's not even getting into the reasons what some guy his age is doing hanging around a bunch of young boys in the first place. It says a lot about Isaac and Garrett's parenting that they would allow him anywhere near their kids despite knowing all of this.

Doesn't work on my AK2i (AKAIO 1.8.1 with AAP enabled). lolcatz seemed to work just fine.

Edit: nvm, works on my 1gb Kingston. Guess this is just a microsd latency problem.
Edit 2: Seems to work on my kingston 1gb even without AAP.

If you don't like an epic story, stay away from Golden Sun.

Same goes for 999.

Epic story =/= 90% story, 10% gameplay

You're complaining about Golden Sun? You should see 999 then. Proven, it's a visual novel, but still, GS has always been text-heavy because what makes GS is the story (at its core). The intro is fine, if you read it carefully, because it explains what happened in 30 years which is a huge time-span to compress into 15 minutes.

  • 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)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
