Of course, we have taken measures to make sure that such a disaster never happens again.

Always back up your data, kids.

Just a question- anyone know when exactly FF:CC's coming out here in the states? Methinks that's going to be a month of good sales for Nintendo.

According to PGC, it comes out in the US on 11/3/2003.  EBGames preorder page also gives the same date.

The track names are available on CDDB.  If you have a media player that uses CDDB, load the CDs and CDDB will recoginize them and assign the track names for you.

Seriously, Billy, the news of your departure comes as a complete shock.  You've been the heart & soul of PGC ever since I started visiting the site, three years ago.  Although I know that Jonny, Rick, Daniel, and the rest of the staff will do a fine job, it just won't be the same around here without you.  I hope you stop by for an occasional visit.

Good luck with you new job, man!

Thanks for the MPEGs, Billy!

I appreciate the extra work that you put in to support those of us that can't seem to make Windows Media Player work.

Are these movies working for eveyrone else? When I try and play em, it opens up fine, starts playing the sound fine, but the picture doesn't show. It will show a frame and then jump to another frame about 10 seconds ahead. I can play pretty much all other files fine, just the gameboy player movies and I think 1 other movie from PGC. Anybody else having these problems?

I'm having the exact same problem.

yeah, it's time to upgrade to the latest Windows Media Player.

I'm using with Windows Media Player 9 downloaded yesterday (running on Win2K).  Doesn't seem to work for me on WinXP, either.

NWR Feedback / Anyon else having trouble with recent PGC WMV files?

« on: March 28, 2003, 12:41:18 AM »

I've been unable to play any of the WMV files posted on PGC in the last week or so.  This includes the "Direct Feed Game Boy Player" movies, the "Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3: Raven Shield" movies, and the "Link In Action" movies.

I *am* able to play previously posted movies, though.

Of course, I have downloaded the WMF files to my systems before trying to play them.

- On Windows 2000 with Windows Media Player 9 (the latest and greatest, downloaded on 3/27), I get sound, but a black screen.

- On Windows XP with Windows Media Player 8 with the WMP 9 codecs installed, I get sound, and one frame displayed every ten seconds or so.

Is anyone else having problems viewing these movies?

TalkBack / SP Headphone Adapter MIA?

« on: March 21, 2003, 12:47:43 AM »

This echos the situation in Japan, where the Headphone Adapter wasn't available for launch.

I had no trouble getting one from NCSX with my import GBA SP, back in February.  Unfortunately, they don't have them in stock anymore.

TalkBack / Game Boy Player Delayed until June

« on: March 14, 2003, 10:23:05 AM »

I preordered from EBGames in February, and when I checked my order status, it still listed a price of $39.99.  I've received no notification from EBGames of a price change.

In addition, as of this moment, GameStop is still taking preorders at $39.99.

Nintendo Gaming / Gameboy Advance SP extra batteries???

« on: March 02, 2003, 08:50:07 AM »

I dont think they are going to make changing the battery that easy. It may even be soldered onto the pcb for all we know (anybody with an import SP open it yet??)

I have an SP.  The screw has a reqular (although very small) phillips head.  The screw is held captive by the battery cover, so you can't lose it when you take the cover off.  Once the cover is off, the battery pops right out.

TalkBack / Platinum SP Warning

« on: February 21, 2003, 01:13:21 AM »

I wonder if the paint problem is related to the intial GBA SP shortege.  Perhaps Nintendo realized that there was a problem, and it affected production.
