I made a post in the help-wanted section of romhacking.net, but I thought I should appeal here as well. If anyone can handle the hacking, I can handle all the Japanese. Princess Crown is a Saturn game that can and should have a proper translation done. Please do let me know if you are...

The trouble I've had recently with dual data track iso's has got me thinking. Issues like ease of use and computer compatibility aside, what is the best format for ripping game CD's? Specifically, unprotected CD's like what we (basically) have with the Saturn and the Sega CD? Does anyone know if...

I got this thing for free in Japan last year. The price tag on it was for about $35, but now you can get it by basically giving me the price of shipping and some change. For $10 paypal, I'll wrap it up and send it to you via priority mail. It's used, yes, but it still works. I'm too lazy to...

My TV is hooked up to my Saturn via a SCART cable, but formerly it was via an S-video cable. While the improvement in picture quality is wonderful, I have noticed that there is an increase in audio "white noise" with the change in cables. Particularly when the screen is mostly white, such as...

Let me just say first, to remove all doubt, that I am not making any kind of request for someone to work on this or anything. I'm just asking what kind of insights people have in the subject. Do you guys remember the Pioneer Laseractive? For the most part, it really wasn't all that special...

Hey guys, I know it's old news, but I just read this interview where the interviewer says that Princess Crown is running on the PSP via emulation, using GiriGiri no less. I can't believe this, but the Sony guy didn't correct him. He may be just a batty PR guy, though. The PSP has a 333 MHz CPU...

For those of you who have the time and the interest, Chris Coffin, former programmer of the infamous Sonic Xtreme for the Sega Saturn, has shown up on the forums at Simon Wai's Sonic 2 Beta Page, and is giving some very interesting answers to techical questions about the Saturn. This is a person...

I've been enjoying some of the music from Astra Superstars a lot, and I would like to be able to play some tracks from my PC. I could just rip it all analog-style, but I'd rather not go that route because of difficulty and quality loss. I know there's nothing out there for the Saturn like .spc...

Hello. I've got a pretty decent TV with component video inputs. I am in NTSC land, however, so this is about as good as it gets for me short of an RGB monitor, which I don't want to hassle with. However, most of my consoles only have RGB or S-Video output (among lower quality signal types), and...

Let's say you're doing just awesome in a video game...you finally are in range of beating it for the first time...you are a tiny fraction away from beating that high score you always looked up to...but then you screw up. In fact, you really screw up. In a few remarkably ungraceful moments, you...

Someone here might be interested in this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...mMakeTrack=true Here's a reply he made to someone's email: "...This device is used to test programs made to run on the 32x hardware. You have to plug it into the 32x via the cartridge slot and also hook it...

I'm selling these games in two groups according to system. Shipping included, I'd like $10 for the Sega CD bundle, and $8 for the Saturn games. You can have everything for $15 total. Sega CD: NBA Jam Thunderstrike Stellar Fire Cliffhanger Jeopardy (disc & manual only) Wheel of Fortune...

I recently dowloaded a backup (bin/cue) of Keio Flying Squadron 2 for the Saturn, but there is an obvious problem with it. The entire soundtrack is in CD audio (redbook?), and each song actually begins 2 seconds before its track does. In other words, when repeating a single track, the first two...

Hey gang. The A button on my trusty Saturn controller is weakening, and I'm going to need a replacement very soon. I'm looking to buy a Saturn controller like it - Japanese/2nd US model (official) - whether used and in good condition or brand new, maybe more than one if the deal is good. The...

I've got an ISO/MP3 rip of Soul Star for the SegaCD that is giving me some trouble. I think it was ripped incorrectly. The ISO/data track extracts to 532MB from a mere 30MB, and there are still 46 minutes worth of music tracks. Clearly this won't all fit on one CD. Checking out the ISO with a...

Many times I have heard of and witnessed the SegaCD's ability to display colors beyond the standard Genesis color palette using a trick called HAM. A few guides for the system have explained that it works by placing two colors over one another to make a third color, but that shallow explanation...

Hi guys. I need some money, so I'm selling some games. I was going to put them up on ebay, but I thought I'd let you all have a crack at them first. I won't bother with extensive descriptions; everything is complete and in totally acceptable condition unless stated otherwise. Here's what I...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...8123697043&rd=1 The seller doesn't know what it is, he's been asked. Do any of you?

I bumped into this on slashdot, and I'm quite intrigued. I've heard this has actually been done before, but whatever. What do all of you think? I'll bet there are problems with lots of titles, but the idea of reduced lag in certain genny games sounds fantastic. Has anyone tried this before? I...

This is kind of an obscure question, but I'll try to keep it short. Darxide is a highly rare 32X game released only in Europe. Finding a copy is next to impossible, and if you do get one, you'll need a PAL Mega Drive/32X to play the game because it has regional lockout. However, a while ago, in...
