Neo Geo and MSX for VC !

[esteban]

Gamasutra blurb on MSX and Neo Geo for VC

Aleste and Eggy (?) confirmed debut titles for MSX (I want to play Aleste and Aleste 2. Too bad VC won't include the Aleste Paper Plane).

Not sure what Neo Geo title(s) will debut.

North America won't get MSX, will it? What about Europe (not sure about UK), where there actually was a small MSX scene?

[TR0N]

Nice i guess, still if there's no d-pad suport for neo titles it will be a train wreck.

I read about this earlier, very interesting. I hope they bring MSX games out here because I might actually purchase one or two of those since 1. ) Computer emulation blowz, 2. ) I'm not willing to purchase those kind of systems. I remember reading months ago that the VC was said to get MSX and Commodore 64 ROMs (Neo Geo was not specified), so what happened to C64? I'd be willing to purchase C64 ROMs as well for the same reason I mentioned earlier.

I sure hope there's enough memory in the console because you can't access the VC stuff from the SD cards since Nintendo is super hyper paranoid.

*huge

And no - there's no way in hell these games will show up outside of Japan.

Computer emulation blowz

Yeah. Playing computer (MSX) games on a computer (PC) is just plain idiotic. Computer games should be played on a console - with a weird controller instead of a keyboard as they were meant to be played!

[termis]

The only problem I have with computer emulation is just that... I'm stuck by my computer desk!  (small monitor, no sofa, etc. etc.)

I seriously need to set up a PC set-top box to my TV...

[GUTS]

Just get an Xbox, you can even plug a USB keyboard into the controller ports if you buy a cheap adapter or just splice the wires from the keyboard to an xbox controller cord (since they're both USB) to play old computer games.  A modded Xbox is the best way to play ROMS on a TV, it rules, thats how I play old DOS games now since I hate sitting in front of a real computer.  Like for Eye of the Beholder 2 I just mapped all the keys that the game used to a controller and played it like a console game, it was awesome.

[FM-77]

I've started playing console games on my computer myself. It is convenient.

[nodtveidt]

Just get a Shuttle and load it up with emulators, plug in one of those nifty USB controllers and you're good to go.

[termis]

Yeah, definitely was looking toward the x-box due to the machine's emulation friendliness. 

Ah, but I have so many games as is that I still need to play, I guess it just never comes up as a priority thing to do...

[Keranu]

Computer emulation blowz

Yeah. Playing computer (MSX) games on a computer (PC) is just plain idiotic. Computer games should be played on a console - with a weird controller instead of a keyboard as they were meant to be played!

I didn't mean as in control wise, I meant as in difficult to set up and sometimes faulty emulation wise.

Just get a Shuttle and load it up with emulators, plug in one of those nifty USB controllers and you're good to go.

Right on!

We definitely aren't getting those games on Wii. Nintendo of America wants THEIR games to sell. Greedy bastards.

Kind of a weak start if ya ask me.

If i was in charge it would be FFS,SS and Magician Lord.

Btw if any body does down load FF,WH or AOF.

Then i suggest this joystick
