I might get the fixed edition, Soukyugurentai Otokuyo, it's not much more expensive.

That's the one I have I think. White boarders on the artwork?

Odd thing is, despite having t region locked, they patched the game in it's second iteration so it would work with US Saturns using Action Replay devices, as the original visuals would get corrupted!

Also, they added a one level preview of Battle Garegga as well, which is nice!

MrVestek

So I went to record a new unboxing video last night of that Action Replay 4 in 1 cart... and my fecking Saturn won't recognise that it's there!

To be fair when I got this Saturn it was in bits and wouldn't boot half the time... cleaning up the unit seems to have fixed that but it seems that some of the contact pins in the expansion port have rusted away.

Anybody got a cheap Saturn they wouldn't mind parting with? Mine is fecking knackard...

Credit card & very fine grade abrasive paper trick for the Saturn cart slot?

Ah if its only slight corrosion on the pins it should be easily fixable.

Good idea with the radius of light

MrVestek

The things needs to be convinced to boot properly half the time, I already have a snipe going on an Ebay auction for a replacement so here's hoping!

Well we were hoping that you'd have to tell were the enemies were by sound and have only the level visible in the radius of light but learning Game Maker 2 days before the competition was not a good idea on my part At least from talking to other game maker devs there I found out how to fix it if I need to do it next time.

Retr0gamer

Well they also made Xenosaga which was ****e.

Xenoblade so far has been the first game they managed to make that was stellar and was a massive surprise to me considering their past catalogue of games.

WTF!

It was embarrassing enough having the old render of Lara up on the desktop, but seeing the screenshot in the corner was priceless!
Imagine all the magazines ruined by one hand perusing of that one ad.....
