Probably didn't see much of a reason to do a wide release. It was $40, and you got a game, a memory card, a GBA/GC link cable, and a box. Probably costed too much to produce a huge quantity of.

I know jap version wont work with us games, but would the euro version? If there was a action replay code to let you use a jap copy, id just do that.
Nintendo Power should have offered this as a resubscription offer like they did the zelda collection and prime 2 bonus disc.

Traded in, devkits are just kind-of fine though. You test your games on it, neat. Cool that Philips integrated a floppy drive to more quickly test software on. This is another CDi unit, it's a very interesting model.

The display pops up, this unit was working but I didn't take a photo of it on. The screen is a backlit LCD, of acceptable quality for the mid 90s. The story behind is it incredible--

Apparently as Philips was trying to get CDi units into the wild, they would have door-to-door salesmen carry these around to demo them to buyers. They would show the software on the LCD and pitch the units from there. The integrated controller helped with this. The fact this was their approach for selling the CDi format to people was hilarious, obviously it didn't work out too well but it brought the world really novel hardware and a funny story. Imagine some dude in a suit showing you the CDi experience with this at your front door.

The real bout special behind Bert Blyleven is a Korean version which is pretty rare afaik. Basically the same as US version with slightly different cart. Manual and stuff are identical to Us. I think there are some minor differences with the rom too like missing voice samples

honestly just use a Wii for it, I'm pretty sure it works just fine on nintendont, except for not being able to play ruby and sapphire using the link cable.

[Anonymous No.9059046]

>>9059025
Never used a modded Wii. Do you mean just get the US rom on it, or do you mean the Nintendont software would provide compatibility between a US Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald and Jap/Euro version of a Box disc?
Something i doubt is "expensive", but certainly not something i ever see that i own, is an official version of Gunstar Heroes for PC from either the late 90s or early 2000s. Pretty sure its just an emulator on a disc, but im not 100% sure. Its a fine experience regardless and was my only version of the game i had for many years till i got a cart couple years ago. Was likely Japan only and it seems like it may have been a part of a series of mega drive pc titles since a menu on the disc advertised Rent A Hero and Alien Soldier.

Honestly not a great deal. Finding funny comments, browsing through functions for people to go 'ahhh so THAT'S how it worked', and interest would die down a month later. No one could legally use the source, anyone working on a FOSS port of StarCraft couldn't touch it.
Of course none of this excuses the absolute mongrel who bent a knee to blizzard and sent it fucking back.

I can confirm this works without issue. Made a living dex this way a few years back.

Ultimate Gen3 setup is
-Backlit GBA, Cart
-DS with the cart slot, R4 card with save dumper
-PC with gen 3 save manager, for dumping in event/version exclusives you can't get and checking / deleting stacks of eggs without having to hatch them
-Modded vertical wii, USB thumbstick with pokemon box
-GBA>Gamecube Link Cable

The really nice thing about this setup is it also takes the busywork out of Emerald cloning; just

>Backup Save with DS Lite
>Dump everything into Pokemon Box
>Restore Save

you do understand how problematic the transfer process is to home from gen3 right? to do the entire living dex would take a considerable amount of time
much of gen 3 and older are obtainable in later games

the setup is godtier but i would only use it for events, egg moves etc

>or just plain interesting
I'm not really interested in dev stuff (well, wouldn't mind an IS Nitro DS Capture device or a Wide Boy) but with flashcarts/ODEs etc. nowadays you can mostly get away with pirating anything you care to play. I am interested though in stuff that can't really be pirated or emulated effectively.

All that comes to mind are cartridges like Boktai/WarioWare Twisted, or special controllers like the NeGcon. Can you guys think of anything else in that vein?

[Anonymous No.9070094]

Got these two. Not the rarest items in the world but still worth something. A bit sad since they are the Spanish version, but me gusta lo sticker. Maybe I’ll have them graded and then sell it in 20 years, don’t know if the prices will go up or whether the grading scam bubble will burst.

The sounds on the PCE core on the Mister are indistinguishable from original hardware analysed with mdfourier.

[Anonymous No.9072315]

>>9072309
That's good to know. I've only tried traditional emulators for it.
I already own all the consoles and computers I have any interest in so I haven't bothered with a MiSTer setup.
Even with regular ass PC emulators, I really only notice the sound differences in certain games like Blazing Lazers and Devil's Crush.
