I only make repros of unreleased games that don't work on flashcarts. So far I have Star Fox 2 and english Lagrange Point. I am considering making an english repro of Marvelous next.

Instant Sunrise posted:could you emulate vector based games on an oscilloscope? Yes, The Zektor ZVG vector generator can output a fork of MAME meant for vector games. I don't know how they perform and are a bit pricey around $200 and only occasionally show up for sale. Alucardd fucked around with this message at 03:23 on Sep 9, 2016 |

Random Stranger posted:"I'm getting to be decent at soldering. Maybe I should think about repairing that Game Gear I have. It likely just needs capacitor replacement. I'll take a look at a guide and--" I recently recapped my Game Gear with a console5 cap kit and it wasn't too bad. Since the old caps are laying on their side, I just used side-cutters on the legs above the pads and twisted the caps off. Then I wiped the legs off with the iron, cleaned the pads, trim new cap legs to length, tinned the pads so that the new cap legs just flow to the pads while the cap is on its side like the original. Time consuming, sure but as long as you cut above the pads, pretty low risk.

At least it sounds like the OSSC https://www.videogameperfection.com/products/open-source-converter/ will be a pretty good cheaper alternative early next year once they have the digital audio board out.

Monaco GP is fascinating in that it looks way better than any other game at the time in 1979 by a long shot and yet still TTL.

With the Far East of Eden Zero translation rebooted maybe it will finish this time (lol) and the SPC7110 will be implemented in the SD2SNES by the time it is out (lol).

In addition to Yuden discs, I have had good luck with Azo dyed Verbatim DataLifePlus CD-Rs in my Saturn, Sega CD and Duo-R. https://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-DataLifePlus-Printable-Recordable-94755/dp/B0001LS35W It is really the crappy green dyed CD-Rs that should be avoided.

The SD2SNES will also be worth it once the Tengai Makyou Zero translation is out because they are really close now. I just hope the ROM can just be expanded out like Star Ocean as opposed to waiting for ikari to implement the SPC7110 (lol).

Quiet Feet posted:Finished Ys III on the SNES a couple of nights ago. It's not bad but has the look and feel of an 8-bit game ported to a 16-bit system. Makes sense I guess since it originally came out in '89. It is remarkable how much better the 3D remake of 3, Oath in Felghana is and no wonder they remade it. The original felt like they were cribbing Zelda 2 with transitioning to side-scrolling from top down and it just doesn't feel right. (Granted Adventure of Link took it much better) e: if anything it is almost as if Ys III started out as a Sorcerian game.

They are all terrible with "bubble wrapped" boards, long rear end wires and globs and globs of epoxy. https://twitter.com/Voultar_Modshop/status/814649106580774916 https://twitter.com/Voultar_Modshop/status/835991779472199680 I stupidly bought one a few years ago without knowing how bad it was and now the colors aren't correct until after a minute or so of being on. I really need that thing stripped out and replaced with a modern board that isn't covered in a fire hazard. Thankfully i did not get the region mod version.

Endymion FRS MK1 posted:I just bought an Xbox, found out it's revision 1.6, which apparently can't play Panzer Dragoon or Gunvalkyrie in 480p (Apparently Jet Set Radio can be with a workaround so I'm fine there). Is there any way this is possible with modding or am I totally screwed? I can confirm (with all the Sega Smilebit games) that if you install the games to the HDD, they all work with this patch on a 1.6: http://theisozone.com/downloads/xbox/trainers-patches-saves/xbox-16-480p-fix/

I could be wrong, but Behar Bros also sells Sony branded SCART cables along side their products that I assume would work just fine if they are advertising it with the Toro.

Exile and Revelations are owned by Ubisoft.

My new Vectrex multicart also just came in today. Sean Kelly made his already great multicart even better. There is one or two titles I wish were on there like Vectrexagon (Super Hexagon for Vectrex) but I can get that cheaply through Packrat Games.

Breadallelogram posted:Anyone here have a GDEMU? I'm looking to mess around with my old dreamcast and this thing looks very easy to install but a pain in the rear end to actually use. I have one and it's pretty great. It is easier to use than what the instructions would imply. There is a menu ISO (GDmenu:http://www.mediafire.com/download/xb9of8cgqophx35/GDmenu_v0.6(24-08-2016).zip) that can load at the beginning and gives you a full GUI menu. There is also an app that builds the SD card with ease that does the folder and file formatting for you here: https://assemblergames.com/threads/unofficial-deunans-gdemu-thread.57247/. In addition in the OP of that thread is a script that lets you shrink ISOs down to squeeze as much as you can. I have nearly the entire US library outside of a few sports games on a 128GB SD card.

Probably the best QoL hack of FFVI is this one: http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/1386/. Keeps the Woolsey script while adding bug fixes and expands out things like spell names being -a -ara -aga instead of just numbered and canonical monster names.
