ÂA few things...

The first...

We're going to be changing GBAtemp soon, so that anything past the portal won't be accessible to guests.
This means that, to view release lists; browse the forum; read topics; use G-Online etc... you'll have to be registered and logged in.

So if you're not registered at GBAtemp... Do it now! Join the community.

You can continue to be a lurker if you like!

You don't have to post, but of course it's better if you do!

This is a fore-warning, the changes haven't taken place yet, but will very soon.

The second...

The "Coming Soon on GBAtemp" thing?

Yep, you guessed it... We'll soon be holding the first Official GBAtemp Mario Kart DS Tournament!

The tournament won't start to take place until a few weeks after the European release (Friday 25th Nov.) of Mario Kart DS. So you've got plenty of time to get your practice in!

I hope you'll all participate!

And yes... There will be a prize!

The tournament will be open to both staff and members.

Expect more details closer to the event here on the portal.

And one last thing...

A bit late to be telling you all now thanks to our eagle-eyed Kyoji!

But during the lockdown of the board to registered members only, there may be a slight re-shuffle of the forum. Magazine News has already been pushed to the top.
Two new forums have also been created, for Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection related discussions, so please make sure all Wi-Fi related chatter goes into it's rightful forum! That's all for now!

If you can choose who you face (well, even if you can't), look out for me for free points! I stink!

Whilst I'm excited at the prospect of playing in a MK tournament and playing against people when it has some meaning attached I'm wary as to how it will be organised and run.

What will be the go regarding playing times and time zone differences?

How will matches be organised so that only the people that are meant to play each other actually hook up together?

    @Xdqwerty, Don't use games that have Easy Anti-Cheat as its been exploited many times.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    @SylverReZ, i think they have been doing that since late 2000s

    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, I have a rom of the ds version of impossible mission
