You did, but I've been asking everyone :P
I've only had two back, and I prefer yours out of the two (it was a hard choice, they're both amazing!).
Could you send me the layered file soon? - I'd quite like to crack on and build the webpage for the release :)

Oh right :/
Well Mr Harry's track was exclusively sent to me, so no body could've told me...
Anyways, hope you enjoy the album :)
Have a great new year!

The compilation got trolled, and they haven't sorted it yet.
Yeah, it means retagging ONE file and reuploading which takes around 30-45 mins :/
I'll get on it right away :P

Yeah, the PC cable works fine on a PAL NES, and fortunately I have one for testing. I've been using it for years. As arfink said, it's just an adjustment to the timing loops, since the PAL CPU runs slightly slower than the NTSC one. Ideally the cart would have a Ciclone chip in it, so that it would work on NTSC or PAL NES, but we probably won't put that in the first version, which will be NTSC/PAL depending on the original cart we start with. The alternative is to use a NES with the CIC disabled by cutting a pin, or the redesigned one which I hear doesn't even have a CIC.
Oh oh oh!
Start with PAL xD

but that's assuming i understand it correctly.Actually, not quite right Low-Gain. I believe we can make it PAL compatible, but since we're using the NES as a UART it's very cycle-dependent, which is different if you have an NTSC or PAL NES. However, I have reason to believe it's just a matter of retiming some things to make a special PAL version. I'll need to check that with Blargg though, since he's the code junky. As far as the hardware goes, there will almost certainly be carts with PAL CIC chips onboard.
Fingers crossed ;D

Re: UK High Court Bans Import Of Copying Devices (11 replies, posted in General Discussion)
What I think is petty about Nintendo is that they won't even stand for people using home-brew applications on DS such as Nitro Tracker or Protein DS. Is it not my DS after I've bought it?
Even though it's all about patents don't they have some copyright on the DS's plastic shell look?
What if I draw a face on my DS's casing? Will some Nintendo rep stop me in the street and arrest me for personalising my DS?
It's pretty much the same as running non-profit apps on my DS.
I couldn't give a crap about what Nintendo think I should do with my DS. I haven't even played an official Nintendo game on my DS in months!
If I wanted to play a game I didn't have I'd go out and buy it off the shelf, not download it illegally.
This thred should be entitled 'Nintendo Nazis'
