i have bought a few ak2i from www.0shippingzone.com and they are very reliable. They are the sponser for scdev.org. a couple bucks more than dealextreme but if you have ever had an issue with the product from dealextreme, returns are a pain in the butt, as well as their customer service sucks.

never heard of that company....try gamezway.com their price on the ak 2i is actually $15.50 and it's recommended by this site! Have heard nothing but good things about gamezway, I'd steer clear of places that are virtually unheard off especially places that do not specialize in gaming devices because they usually have low priority on shipping times and have terrible customer service....take dealextreme for example, it's common knowledge that it usually takes about 2 weeks for shipping but several people have reported not receiving their items for almost 2 months.Gamezway is probably the best site for a good balance of low price and good customer service as well as relatively fast shipping. Also I've ordered from consolesource.com and gamebygame.com before and didn't have any problems with them at all but again their prices are higher and when I order again it will be from gamezway since their prices are alot better.

0shippingzone probably has the best customer service there is. When you order a item they will even provide you a picture of your order and they will test it out before they send it. They ship there items the same day you play your order or the next day. They are the official sponsers of dsdatabase.com , scdev , GBAtemp download site(filetrip), dcemu.co.uk .

me and my friend used ds card depot. we ordered an r4i sdhc. we got it in a week or two, but they were r4i II. Look at my post to read about what happened.
so they are legit, but false advertising.

Anyone order before an acekard 2i from focalprice?



I would steer clear of Focalprice, at least for now. There site is plagued with bugs. I recently ordered some items from them and first my order was missing (even though they always charge you right away, they get there money no matter what) It took me 2-4 days to resolve the missing order issue, so if coarse it got to shipping 4 days late. They basically only have one customer service Rep. named Sabrina that is the only one that ever helps. If you don't believe me just go to there site and go to there Forums in the top right corner and read some of the issues that there customers are having. I would stick with DXextreme I ordered my Acekard2i on 12-1 and received it on 12-24, 23 days seems long but it was at the busiest time of the year. I also would trust 0shippingzone, I e-mailed them a question and they responded within 2 hours.

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
