Topic: UY game on Nintendo DS!!!

[Judas]

Just because there isn't any info on it yet doesn't mean it's in production, game companies often conceal information until a few months prior to release, for example Namco's Tales of Legendia that's comming out this year has been under production since early 2003 yet they didn't release anything until last september(first under a tentative title with a BEAUTIFULLY animated trailer) then last month they released signifigant information on it

Even if the game's released only in Japan you can still play it, DS, GBA, PSP are all region free, it'll be a bit expensive for import costs but you won't have to do anything to your DS

I heard this one too!! This means there will be no excuses, the modchip will need only for playing backups, not japanese titles...

Well, you are certainly right, but it's a common practice to promote titles with images, trailers and demos long before the launch of the finished product, I'm not used to this lack of every kind of info...   }:|

So are you saying there's a modchip out for the DS already(wow that was fast...) I personally never used one, instead I bought a Swap Card to play my 4(soon 5 once Tales of Legendia comes and 1 other when Namco x Capcom comes out) import Tales games...

I think Game companies do this to avoid creating early hype which would pressure them for an early release, that version might be buggy as hellor 'unfinished' example. Star Ocean for the Super Famicon was the biggest Cart Game of it's time however Tri-Ace leaked too much early info on it and the public demanded an early release, which they got and the game was EXTREMELY buggy(which made it un-emulatable for quite some time...) it also missed a large portion of storyline, like there was a HUGE plot gap between the teaser ending and real ending....

For me a RPG UY game FF style would be perfect.

What do you mean FF-style, do you mean turn-based battle system or do you mean gawdy graphics and a villain with a mother/god complex(Points to that over-used guy with long white-hair and black trench coat) sorry if anyone found that stab at FFVII offensive but I've been 'disgusted' with most of the ladder FF's(save for IX, even with the gawdy graphics they still managed to return to the series' roots...)

As for it comming to the US it really depends on the developer and how well the series is recieved over here, if it's done by Bandai then there's a chance because lately(thanks to the success of the .hack games) they've been bringing over their anime tie-in games

Well, no, I was referring to PSP only (but it wasn't so obvious, was it? ^^; ), PS1/2 and XBOX are the consolles using a wide range of modchips, Nintendo's never needed them...well GameCube would need one, but it seems a hard task... xP
If a modchip for DS existed they would have been far too fast! ^^;
...and probably it will never exist!

I personally never used one, instead I bought a Swap Card to play my 4(soon 5 once Tales of Legendia comes and 1 other when Namco x Capcom comes out) import Tales games...

I lost too many originals and you know the price of a game, now I play with backups, so I can scratch all the copies I want!
But the modchip is needed, and the swap trick is possible only with a boot disk, and if you ruin it... xP

About the DS game, it's certainly better to have a good finished product without any actual news, but after several months of nothing we can start to think every kind of thing, I suppose this is normal...
It would have been better to know nothing at all and discover about it near its completion...

You actually don't need a Modchip for the GC, you can  just use a FreeLoader, you can  get one at modchip.com or buy a  PAR there's one installed

Wat's whit all the quotes???? LOL :D)

I already have the Freeloader, but it can only boot originals, not backups... since it's quite difficult even to make backups I don't use GC too much, and once a disc is scratched it's definitely lost!! 
...and the broadband hack is out of discussion!! :N
The modchip does nothing more than Freeloader, so...

Because it's easier to address each point then just by 'jumping from one idea to another' in random paragraphs...

[Moroboshi]

Yup! :Y

[FallinG_StaR]

Yup!!! :Y :N :?

I've been reading this thread and umm... I have no clue to as what a Mega CD is... is that suppose to be some kind of SegaCD? ... ga.... and I call myself a gamer .... 

By the way I'm new to the forums... 
If you know what a Mega CD is please inform me.  Thank you.

[Pac]

It's an old console. I think it was Sega's right? Isn't what we here in europe call megadrive?

[Judas]

Yup Mega CD was made by Sega, it I think was first a stand-alone thing then became a Genesis/Mega Drive attachment I myself never had one(One of the few consoles that ISN'T in my 'Console Museum') but I did play a few games on my cousin's like the original Lunar: The Silver Star and Lunar: Eternal Blue

[Moroboshi]

Yeah! I had a used Mega-Cd unit time ago, but it lasted only few months...
...and I bought it only for Lum's game!!  }:|
Fortunately today it's easily emulated by any pc... :&

[FallinG_StaR]

Any NEW News about the bed time story of the UY game for DS?!?!?!?!?

By the way the only reason a still have 1 Sega mega drive and 1 Sega Master System is because I LOVE the Sonic The Hedgehog Games specialy because they are 2D-3D. That my friends are the best games for me i do have the most recent ones but its not the same thing :N
