Sopwith - Gamecube Homebrew Game

March 7th, 2013, 01:21 Posted By: wraggster

Wow what a fantastic resurgence for the Nintendo Gamecube homebrew and emulation scene. Meglomaniac has found a port of Sopwith to the Gamecube, heres the release details:

Sopwith is a 2D CGA action game from the annals of DOS history where you fly a little biplane around bombing stuff and shooting down evil magenta-colored enemy planes. Gamecube Sopwith is actually a port of Simon Howard's 'SDL Sopwith', which in turn is a port/rewrite of the original DOS Sopwith by David L. Clark.


i found this game today during searching for other stuff...
its a fun little game...
so simple, so challenging...

Gaiden - Single Game Arcade Emulator for Gamecube

March 7th, 2013, 01:09 Posted By: wraggster

Meglomaniac has released a new Arcade Emulator for Gamecube:

this is just the initial screen...there will be more improvements

right now its just semi-automated for compiling which works very well
but it semi-automated...meaning to compile specific game drivers or hardware, it is still a very tedious manual editing process within the source...

...but...
i think i just thought of a workaround method to make this script more powerful to allow fully automated process using only this menu with no need to enter the source directories and no need to manually edit anything...
we just need to identify which driver combinations and how many drivers can be packed together in a single dol to keep the overall size low...and also identify which specific drivers need to be built as separate dols...

Miyamoto says adding NFC integration to Wii U is a greater priority than dual GamePad

March 7th, 2013, 00:20 Posted By: wraggster

Back in mid-2012 when the Wii U was this mysterious futuristic device, Nintendo showed off a bevy of features for it and while most of them have emerged, there's a couple that never saw the light of day. Perhaps its most notable missing feature is near field communication (NFC) support, wherein real life physical objects can be read by the GamePad simply be being placed in close proximity to it.This technology is best known to gamers for its use in the Skylanders franchise in which a diorama reads info from figurines. This tech will also be used in Disney's upcoming mega project Disney Infinity. Last summer a Rayman Legends trailer was leaked that teased the ability to give the limbless hero health or spawn more enemies by placing toys with their likeness on the unique controller.According to a report by Polygon, Nintendo is still working on NFC integration and it remains a greater priority than another advertised but missing Wii U features, the ability to play with two GamePads."With NFC, that's a feature that everyone that owns a Wii U can take advantage of," Shigeru Miyamoto told Polygon. "So that's what we're putting [as] our priorities right now."
Regarding dual GamePad support, Miyamoto said games are in development that will take advantage of that feature, but it's not a priority because we're not at a stage where people will want to purchase a (rather expensive) second controller just yet."With regards to the two GamePads functionality, from a gaming system standpoint we are developing games that will have that capability," Miyamoto said. "In the future, perhaps when we get closer to something that, an environment where everybody or a large majority of people would have two GamePads, that might be a time where we look at how we can leverage a system of that nature."Now the question remains: will we get an NFC-supported Pokémon game? It's "catch 'em all" mentality would certainly lend itself well to the tech.

Nintendo hasn't forgotten about Wii U's NFC tech; Twin GamePad titles incoming

March 6th, 2013, 23:53 Posted By: wraggster

Near Field Communication will feature in an upcoming Wii U product announcement from Nintendo.
That’s according to none other than Nintendo design boss Shigeru Miyamoto, who told Polygon that the tech has not been forgotten despite third party products – such as Activision’s Skylanders and Disney’s upcoming Infinity – choosing to ignore it with their launch games.
"With NFC, that's a feature that everyone that owns a Wii U can take advantage of," Miyamoto stated.
"So that's what we're putting our priorities right now. We're hoping that in the near future we'll be able to show you something that will take advantage of the NFC on Wii U and people will be able to enjoy that."
Miyamoto also confirmed that Nintendo is currently developing titles that will allow two users to play simultaneously on different GamePads streaming from the same machine.
"With regards to the two GamePads functionality, from a gaming system standpoint we are developing games that will have that capability," Miyamoto added.
"In the future, perhaps when we get closer to something that, an environment where everybody or a large majority of people would have two GamePads, that might be a time where we look at how we can leverage a system of that nature."

Ubisoft exec wants a Wii U price cut

March 6th, 2013, 23:53 Posted By: wraggster

Wii U should be cheaper to enable publishers to sell more games on the platform, says Ubisoft’s executive director for EMEA territories Alain Corre.When asked if he’d welcome a price cut, Corre told us: “Always. We always want the hardware to be at a low price because we want as many fans as possible to afford to buy our games, so that’s for sure. We think that Wii U will find its public at some point. Some were expecting sales to be quicker but we are optimistic.”“I think Nintendo has said that the Wii U sales in general were below expectations originally and the software tie-in ratio is also stable, so I think that when less machines sell, less games sell.”Though there have been increasing calls for a price drop after a muted launch for the platform, Corre described Wii U’s launch as ‘productive’ for Ubisoft, emphasising that the publisher has always been a strong supporter of new hardware.“It’s part of the Ubsoft DNA to be first on new technology and to innovate – and also release some games that have created some good momentum that we can use for the future. If we globalise all that we did and consider all of that then what we did on Wii U for launch was productive.”Ubisoft recently took former Wii U exclusive Rayman Legends multiplatform, delaying its release until September in order to bring the game to PS3 and Xbox 360. Corre also told us recently that Watch Dogswould be taking on GTA V in the open world genre later this year. He was speaking as part of an interview to be published in full later this week.

Chrono Trigger - Envy Hack

March 6th, 2013, 13:34 Posted By: wraggster

Chrono Trigger is one of the most beloved RPG’s of the SNES era, and arguably of all time. It is the story of 3 teenagers that, while venturing through different eras in time, discover that the future lie in ruins due to an attack from a monstrous, evil beast named Lavos. They set out to save their world and future by defeating this monster. Along the way they travel to many time periods and make friends that will help them in their quest.
This project began in November of 2012 and was just a way to test what could be done w/ the editors that were available. It was set to be an update to the author’s preferences. As the game is viewed as “kid friendly” being that any reference to alcohol is changed to soda or lemonade in the pubs. This project was designed to correct that and make the reality of the game more consistent with real life. Due to learning of what bugs these programs can cause only as they come up during testing, this release is the fifth go through of the project, ie version 1.5 In the end most of the dialogue available in the game and in the endings had been changed one way or another. With a few ideas and desires for “better” weapons and armor, all of the deleted equipment has been made available in the game. As this was not done w/ temporal flux, the only way to put them into the game is via enemy drops/steals, so no treasure chests have been added or changed. Some of the already existing equipment in the game has been changed as well, either by name, parameters, or both. Also, enemies have slightly increased hp while giving less exp & tech points. Enough to make gameplay a little more challenging, but not enough to be considered a “hardtype.”
This hack contains spoof elements naturally as the author is a vulgar comedian. There are cuss words, adult situations, sexual references, and humor that may be offensive to some. It is not overdone, and the dialogue should not come across as “forced” to fit a joke in. Player discretion is advised.
