Victory is mine! (Not as good as the other one, used, but hey, that shrinkwrap would've been in tatters on the floor in seconds after its arrival, anyway :tongue: )

Oh, and I'm officially broke again for another month.

Just won this. Unfortunately, lost this, which is the one I really wanted due to its rarity. That's a great price it went for, too. Figured I'd go for them both, since they're from the same seller. At least now I'll have a reliable FF5 cart, instead of one that erases itself all the time...

Final Fantasy IV Research & Development / Re: FF2/4/ET Bug: Reset and Start New Game Doesn't "Forget"
« on: October 11, 2009, 04:01:02 AM »
It's not really related, but the DS version has a (rather nasty) reset bug as well. You can chose to return to the title at any time during the game, as long as you have access to the save menu. If you do this while the Enterprise is still trapped underground (it stays put, even after the dwarven castle events), and start a new game, then the Enterprise will disappear as soon as you land it for the first time in that game (its location is still set to the underworld). I know for certain this affects the Japanese version (I experienced it first hand), but it's likely been fixed in the US and EU releases, since they came out long after it was discovered. I was never foolish enough to risk playing through a good portion of the game to see if it still happens.

50 Famicarts
50 Super Famicarts

Some good stuff in both, but I'm broke right now, not to mention I already own most of the good ones in English. The amusing thing is, the copy of FF5 would've easily sold for the BIN price by itself, back when I first started using eBay. Imports were extremely overpriced back then. I guess people thought these games were rare in Japan or something.

Final Fantasy IV Research & Development / SFC Revision 1.0?
« on: October 10, 2009, 09:57:04 AM »
This post got me curious, has revision 1.0 finally been found and dumped? I believe the No-intro dat uses (Rev 1) for the 1.1 version, which would imply that his other ROM is 1.0. I know the popular opinion used to be that 1.0 was never actually produced, and the first run was actually 1.1. It would be interesting to see what changes were made, if 1.0 actually does exist.

    1       "The official book of Ultima"
Shay Addams; Paperback; $6.42

this is from like the very early nineties, but there's supposed to be some neat stuff in it, not just guides to the first 6 games.  i can find all the game info i want on the internet, but there's some neat "making-of" info in here.

Ah, the golden age of official guides, before they were just walkthroughs. I've got one for SimCity 2000 from '93, thing's as thick as a bible, and is loaded with developer (and a few player) interviews.

I don't have the offset handy, but the overworld sprites are in 3BPP format.

Final Fantasy IV Research & Development / Re: FF2us disassembly and a hello
« on: October 08, 2009, 06:48:52 AM »
Great to see your progress here, hopefully this game's code ends up as well-documented as the rest of it. Just a question, will this be a compilable disassembly, or just a reference, like the ones we have for FF6? I'm guessing the latter, given the amount of work involved for the former (I tried to make a compilable 01 bank...didn't get very far). I don't think I can provide much help, about the only thing I've looked into at all is the main menu, and that was only what printed the text, nothing else of the menus.

Speaking of the 01 bank, FF4's is completely compatible with every other version (you can drop the entire bank in, and the game will play perfectly), so it might be a good idea to disassemble that one instead of/in addition to FF2us's. That way the extra menus are all documented as well.

This is unrelated, as far as I know.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (Wii)

Yeah, I suppose I shouldn't be playing this one either, if I plan on picking up the Trilogy. I never finished my Hypermode game though, and decided to give Mogenar another try. Beat it with no problem, I don't know why I had such a hard time with it before (can a boss ever be truly difficult in a game where you can make yourself invincible at any time?).

 :edit:

Just got the ship grapple. I had a little trouble with the security drone, but Ghor was pretty pathetic.

 :edit:

Got the spider ball. Gandrayda gave me a bit of trouble at first, until I remembered how easy it was to completely refill your energy by screw attacking her swarmbot tornado form.

I got a letter from him a few minutes ago. It's nothing serious, he just lost his internet access for the time being. Not sure if he wanted the whole world to know, but he didn't say not to tell anyone, so I figured I'd mention it here.

The NTSC SNES and SFC are also 60 times per second. I believe the PAL SNES is 50, which I suppose doesn't really matter with this game.

Revision 1.1 fixed a number of timer-related bugs in the battle engine, which could cause crashes.

I have another little suggestion: Use a dark color for the background of the map editor (or make it selectable). It's almost impossible to see some of the tiles in the cave tileset on my monitors unless I turn the contrast down really low and make everything look faded. I edited my copy to have a black background, and it made drawing caves so much easier.
