Re: DS Top Screen keeps flickering?

theblackdragon

that happened to my husband's lite and i remember googling about it; apparently there was something up with the cable connecting the screen to the board inside. his also had a cracked hinge because he liked to lay it out flat, idk if that had something to do with the cable issue though. the only cure is either you replace the cable yourself (there are guides available on the internet, google them :3) or have Nintendo repair it for you.

you can always trade it in against a 3DS and let Gamestop deal with refurbishing it, though :3

@King: I'd imagine it's the latter, because they have nothing to do but poke at us and complain while we sit happily with our new purchases :3

Re: Playing NTSC Games on PAL SNES

theblackdragon

@Big A2: believe it or not, back in the day here in the US there were import stores with hotlines you could call to order things and local stores that would import games for you... i'd assume the UK had similar services available. :3

i don't care whether they have them or not. a positive gaming experience for me does not hinge upon the presence of achievements. :3

Re: Nintendo Should Support WiiWare With First-Party Games

theblackdragon

There was an interview sometime last year where Reggie said Nintendo wouldn't be putting first-party games onto WiiWare because they wanted the service to focus on more innovative content, or something like that. there's video of that interview out there as well if you'd like to google it.

Re: Are you going to Delete your VC versions the 4 Mario games now that the collection came out for Wii?

theblackdragon

no way, there's a place in my collection (and on my wii) for everything. sometimes i want to play the games as i played them when we first got our NES waaaaay back in the day (that's what i love about the VC btw; even all the flickering and slowdown is there :3), and sometimes i want to play the remakes. it's whatev' :3

Re: Playing NTSC Games on PAL SNES

theblackdragon

an easy way? no. if you want easy, you'll just have to get a NA SNES. if you're handy with a soldering iron, though, this guide is quite detailed and looks like it'll give you some solid results.

edit: wait, if you're just talking about getting NTSC games to run on a PAL SNES, there are converters for that. they'll probably run you more than you paid for the SNES, though :3

Re: Critisism on my characters?

theblackdragon

@KaiserGX: perhaps you should get active on an art-based website, like DeviantART or something, where you can interact directly with other artists who are more in the mindset of critiquing things than playing video games. being around other art all the time usually helps to inspire me, maybe it'll help you too.

Re: I can't find Mario all stars Wii anywhere.

theblackdragon

you might want to try checking GameStop's website, they'll list which stores in your area have copies, and you can call those stores directly. they should be at the point where they're selling preorders that no one picked up yet, and if they say they're not, i'd try reminding them of their company policy -- they're only supposed to hold those preorders for like two or three days after the game hits.

that said, i just checked Amazon... sorry Link79, but dang, i'm glad i ordered my copy when I did. no way i'd pay more than retail for it

@bboy2790: come on, now, there's no need for 'well you should've gotten it at launch if you wanted it so bad' -- i know I straight-up didn't have the money for it until the payday after it hit, and by then there were no copies left in town... believe me, i checked everywhere. not everyone is as privileged to have the money for everything they want as soon as it comes out; if you are so blessed, good for you. :/

a quick google search turned up your answer. apparently you need to use either composite cables or a PS2-branded scart cable instead.
