Just note the Wii's being produced now have removed the Gamecube functionality. The Blue Console and the Black Console bundled with New Super Mario Bros. and the new Mario Kart Bundle Wiis DO NOT have Gamecube backwards compatibility. If the Wii is shown the front of the box horizontaly it doesnt have GC.

Good to know that laptop eventually got a screen from the junk pile that fit it but i will try and remember that in the future.

Looks like they are trying to stem off Americans importing the EU version by announcing it before it released in Europe this Friday.

This is my favorite laptop mod - [technabob.com] was going to attempt this with a junk laptop with a broken screen but i could never get it to switch to the external display.

While i love turned based RPGs and wish there was more on the market the one thing i hate about Turn Based RPGs is random encounters. That whole system needs to be tweaked first they need to occur less often but ramp their difficulty up so each one is a challenge rewards should ramped up as well so you have less…

The same thing is happening to the DVDs in Rebox and other rental places not just netflix.

Looks like im going to be picking up a $20 PSN card this afternoon cause can bet your ass im not giving them my CC info. Is there any other PSN games that are $5 to use the remaining credit on?

yeah, alias is good for the first stages of the design process, when everything is more conceptual. it also performs reasonably well in osx now. actually, there are other programs for mac that could be used in this early stages. but after the first renderings/models/dummies/whatever, you need to move to something like…

i seriously doubt they would use marionette. i don't work at pixar, so i have no idea what it is like, but 3D animation software and 3D CAD-CAM software are two very different things, so i doubt marionette would be of much use in a product development environment. also, it would be weird, even counterproductive, to…

that's interesting. what software do they use? just to be clear, i'm not saying they don't use macs, only that they most likely run windows on their computers for 3D CAD or modeling.

another fun fact from the other side of the table: every apple product is most likely designed in a windows environment. almost all respectable industrial design and product engineering software is only available on windows, and when there's a mac version, it's usually very inferior to the windows counterpart. it's…

When your rocking all vanilla equipment, they know exactly what to expect from you.

Ive yet to jump into a Kickstarter project but i would donate to a new Chrono game.

You got them during the Christmas sale

You can rent a Color Calibration tool from here [www.borrowlenses.com] havent tried them myself but seems legit.

I missed the target time as i was stuck in a mechanics shop having my car worked on but i played as soon as i got home for 4 hours.

I would buy one to use on a PC if it was cheap enough <$15

Ive already started my Boycott and will keep it going until March possibly beyond. Will give me time to work through my backlog of movies and games.

Has Nintendo forgotten about the Wii's Virtual Console :( we still need Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Alright this might be the best place to ask this im looking for a tablet that is cheap and does 1 thing really well - Playing videos, avi, mp4, mkv(that might be pipe dream) ect. All the other features i dont care about. Is there a 7"-10" tablet (preferably 10") that is ~$100 that does video really well? I wont be…
