Not a big fan of the cocktail cabinets, little too old school for me. I guess its a personal thing, I love the Japanese style cabinets. Much for comfortable to sit down if you're planning on spending some serious time in front of a game, in my opinion. 311395[/snapback] I get too relaxed if I'm sitting down. I slack off and screw up. ... Besides, I'm likely not gonna last 5 minutes anyways.

Huh? *Wonders why anybody would say that when AnimeSuki is a fansubber site* 311381[/snapback] Well... they COULD have engrish subtitles, which isn't quite the same...

After you take it back and forth a few times, Babelfish GETS that bad. Try it. Feed some text in, do english to something else. Copy the output, take it to a third language, then take that back to english. Then take your output from language 1 back to english and compare.

Cool! I don't have the money or space for an arcade cabinet right now, but someday I'd sure like to. Japanese cabinets are so much nicer than their American counterparts. 311281[/snapback] Get a cocktail cab. Can use it as a table, so the space isn't wasted. *does a Google image search* Ooooohhhh... didn't know the Ms. Pac/Galaga board came in a cocktail... Namco really pulled all the stops out for that one. http://ombion.blogspot.com/pacman.cocktail...ideo%20game.jpg Personally speaking, when/if I get me a cab, it's gonna be the classic plywood box. No slur on the molded japanese cabs, but it just doesn't feel right sitting down at an arcade machine to me.

I did. Starting with mini-box 2, if I recall.

Mmmm.... build-your-own mecha... Sure Biomotor Unitron was a somewhat lackluster RPG, but the ability to change parts out and customize the look of your mech kept me poking at it far longer than I should've(at one point late in th egame when I could get away with it I didn't even bother with stats and just went for looks, including charging into battles with TOTALLY the wrong elemental coating, just for the color pallete). Being able to do it on something more advanced... *drools* ... Wonder if you can change your paint job.

We can still dream.

Should I point out that the Metal Gear series isn't platformers? I hadn't heard that. Shows how much attention I pay to gaming news these days. Yah, I've got both ROM images and BlueMSX. Got a decent gamepad too. It's just a bit more cumbersome than I'm used to. Having to whack both action buttons at once to crouch, then let go and reach for the keyboard to change items or answer the transciever is annoying.

His license plate has been stolen A reward ( Transformers toys ) is offered to anyone who catch the thief or bring the objct back. 310980[/snapback] Pfft, screw that. Maybe if he'd offered me one of those big-ass laser guns, but TOYS? No thanks.

*considers* Yah, the Mk.2 was a bit too rounded,d espite my naming it of favorite. But Solid Snake had such an awesome intro sequence(for the time, anyways). 310884[/snapback] Oh yes To this day that is one of my favorite game openings (the tune is kinda cool too) 310965[/snapback] Yah. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Pft, who needs sample playback?

I usually hit PlanetEmu for my "1337 W4r3z RAWMZ"

Sigh... I SO want this to not suck. And have SO litle hope of it doing anything else. At least they dragged a REAL tractor out for their display instead of some angular monstrosity.

Well, I guess those few news stories I had seen were wrong then. I'm sure that in one form or another AnimEigo is still going to get credit for the restoration, and I do not see any way for ADV to avoid this. And I'm pretty sure that HG may have purchased the copyright from AnimEigo to use their subtitles. It would be strange to see two different subbed versions out there. But that is my opinion and it is always open for discussion. 310943[/snapback] If the coyright rolled to HG on termination of contract, there's nothing Animeigo can do about it. We already know they're getting crap for the remaster, and a "special thanks" note for the liners.

*cackles* Perfect image, perfect sound, TOTALLY fartED UP subs. The wish power are together with you. (well, as perfect as they can {or choose to} get),

*considers* Yah, the Mk.2 was a bit too rounded,d espite my naming it of favorite. But Solid Snake had such an awesome intro sequence(for the time, anyways).

Maybe HG will get another stick up its butt and decide it doesn't need to pay the new company any money, because it "owns" Macross, thereby resulting in breach of contract and termination of license. ... Not likely, but one can hope...

*cackles* Had this passed to me a little while back, but the board was down. And hey, it's always good to see again.

I say if you're gonna legislate one entertainment medium, do 'em all. TV, movies, DVDs, et cetera. Then we can be like Australia or Great Britain, where the government censors (and in some cases bans) our entertainment before we ever get to see it.

I liked the original 2 mechs personally. Especially the Mk. 2.

Waitwait... Animeigo started off dubbing games?

Maybe next time...

Indeed it is. Leaving unused portions in is a common practice, dating back to the early days of gaming, when it was easier to leave it in than it was to change all the addresses in the code(assembly is a pain in the butt).

Dubbing is an extravagant expense if you're a small company like AnimEigo. They have limited finances, and it usually doesn't make sense for them to dub things because their primary audience is hardcore otaku. Well, the majority of their products are dubbed(just ran through the drop-down list on their site because I've got too much time on my hands). You still make a good point. They're smaller than some other companies, and DID spend a large sum of cash on the remaster. They may've already used the "dub fund" on the remaster.

True. Very true.

Sure it does. 'S why Skull One didn't explode when Focker got shot. 310500[/snapback] , Good one wolfx. BTW, nice to hear from you, azrael. Its nice to be back in the forums!!!!!!! 310597[/snapback] Not to nitpick or anything, but that was actually my reply to wolfx's comment that a higher rank didn't give you more HP.
