78001987 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Try fitting a SIO connector, a DB15 connector, extra RAM, a POKEY, a YM2151 and all the supporting circuitry in a 7800 cart. Good luck.why? There isn't a single game or software in existence or even proposed that would use anything but extra ram and pokey. XM was a swindle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XM was a swindle. If it was a swindle it was a dumb one if they spent thousands on hardware to get as far as it is. Its not a was either as it is still being worked on.

As far as we've physically seen, there has only been one prototype shown at a Classic Game show years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinks Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Boxes of shit I seen on the web of parts. More than one proto for sure as several were sent out for testing. Also tep is working on it. Were you around in 2009 thru all the updates over the years? I was. I believe they spent money on hardware. You know US of A been to the moon for fact?

+-^CrossBow^- Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 So how exactly has the Pokey chip issue been resolved for this game? If the Hokey is ready I don't understand why the hush hush on it to only announce it is done for the sake of Bentley's release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because you read something on the internet, doesn't make it true. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK - enough with the slander. The XM has been shown at lots of different events and there are videos of it on youtube. Some of us have tested XM games and demos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us have tested XM games and demos.its not slander. The only 2 events I know of that it was shown at was prge, last year, and some basement show in the U.K. once, 5 years ago just before GB Abandonded it. I've played XM games and demos too... in emulation. And in my concerto. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacManPlus Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Guys, I don't mean to be an ass, but please - can we not do this here? This thread isn't even about the XM version of the game. Don't get this thread locked. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to this post: "I will have more boxed copies for sale after the Portland Retro Gaming Expo. I will also make a non-boxed version of the game available later." The Portland Retro Gaming Expo takes place from October 20 thru October 22 this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
