Re: Who here likes The Beatles? :-D

It gets even more flagrant in some parts of Earthbound . Funny you should mention that, because I've always heard shades of "Yesterday" in Twoson and Threed. :D There's even one song in the game that samples Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxmBzMfM2ww...

By the way, have you heard of SNESMusic.org ? They do mainly game SPC sets. And here's a little SNES music gift from me: Download I never knew about SNESmusic.org. They seem to have a larger selection than Zophar's Domain, which is where I usually download SPCs. Thanks! Oh, and the music---very Chr...

I'm not sure what the point would be now that there is a SNES Powerpak.

SPC700 Music

A little question for the chiptune-inclined (rushjet1, Memblers, et al): For years there has been a burgeoning interest in original 8-bit chiptune music, with sites like 2a03.org and 2a03.free.fr (Chiptune Up!) acting as hubs for artists to share their work. But where is all the original SPC700 musi...

I don't think there is enough CPU time to call the refresh routine in Nijuu 3 times per frame - probably get away with it most of the time but when it peaks, it peaks big :) I just took advantage of the fact that (some) NSF players can play songs at practically any speed. I'll see if I still have t...

Thing is, you could probably sell it for the cost of 10 Gyromite carts and end up with maybe a couple adapters, heheh. I had no idea Stack-Up was that rare! I just assumed that I wasn't looking hard enough all these years. -A five screw shell, using standard flathead screws. Yeah, my Gyromite copy ...

Was Stack-Up ever released in the US? It's pictured on an old Fun Club/Nintendo Power poster of mine along with Gyromite, but despite how common that game is, I've never come across Stack-Up. Same here, Stack Up has to be far fewer in numbers than Gyromite. Or we both had really bad luck! I'm under...

Cool. I should have thought just searching for it on eBay, though, heh. :oops: It only took me a few seconds to find an NES copy of the game. Thanks anyway!

Re: Available Soon: NES Front-Loader Expansion Port Connecto

I also pan to use them for some expansion-port modules , such as a plug-in board for the PowerPak FDS (Loopy's) Extra Sound, and a module to plug Famicom expansion devices, like the 3-D glasses onto the NES and a kit to add the expansion port to the top-loading NES (NES-101) and Famicom series a bi...
