I've dropped my GBs a couple times with visible or audible damage. Any stories of hardcore wipe-outs or even minor wipe-outs that resulted in damage to your precious instrument?
Also, could minor falls/drops effect the sound at all?

I just bought one of these things. The thing is, it won't turn off.
Would it be alright for me to just ungplug it from the adapter each time I want to shut it off? Any real damage?

Timbob: Sounds like something the value for global transpose or some instrument transpose. Either you did it accidentally, or there was a glitch. (Those happen...)
It happened randomly on a couple boots. Rebooting always fixed it.

I don't get them anymore (mostly when I first got it a year ago), but have any of you played a song in LSDJ only to have almost every single note/sound play completely wrong or scrambled? The first couple of times scared the hell out of me...then I just found it hilarious.

I'm looking to get at least 6 or 8. I've been thinking about using my SNES advantage stick to trigger samples via Reason (max/msp or just key syncs)...but it'd be more fun with Lickshot haha.
email me a zip file of the samples at [email protected] and i'll mod lickshot for you.
Dude, that would be awesome! You honestly don't have to, but if you end up doing it in your spare time, I wouldn't mind since I'd love to see what you did to the source code haha.
I'll send you the .wav as well as the dcms. Thanks, man.

you could learn 6502 assembly and just modify lickshot to have more samples.
how many samples do you need?

No, two windows of the same emulator.
Will try now.
(Technically this would've been the logical first step...but for some reason I didn't think I'd be able to control two simultaneously. Will be back with results).

Let's say I want to mess with two different compiled versions of Lickshot. Would there be a way to do so simultaneously.
OR
Is there such thing as a DCM sampler or some VST plug-in for a DAW to have multiple NES-driven samples at my command other than recording each one as a .wav?
Any info would help. Just trying to bulk up my live set-up without resorting to Reason or Ableton.

i always assumed it was less about dusty contacts and more about the position of the contacts. like, it's more about taking the cartridge out and putting it back in, in a slightly different spot, and not about the blowing.
since i did the lockout chip mod, every cart works perfectly the first time for me.
I did the lockout chip mod and it works perfectly! Although, sometimes games need a little 1cm of repositioning after being turned on. Is this typical?
Games like Star Tropic work without any repositioning.

Tell...the future!
Nah, but now that I have another DMG, I'm probably going to start modding my old one once I my soldering skills are up to par. The clearboy is just something I've always wanted to have in general. I also just might get another EMS cart + a mixer and start messing with 2 at a time (It's just not the same with a GB Color as a dedicated Muddygb or Electric Drum unit).
The possibilities are endless!
