Dual SD/HC/EC slots should be standard on all gaming devices with universal save to SD support.

Generic HDD support is nice also, but offers nothing in the realm of data portability.

Linux is a kernel. GNU is a suite of command line utilities and applications. GNU/Linux is a minimalist operating system combining the two. Most Linux-based operating systems use both as their core, some use just the Linux kernel and a completely different userspace. Anyways, my main OS is Debian ru...

I would suggest the following: 1. Enter Station Square as Knuckles. 2. Dig around until you find a magnet shield. 3. Go to the hotel and stand on the coin generator switch. 4. Go do something productive for a few hours. 5. Play an action stage that you can easily beat without taking damage. 6. Profit!

Kolourpaint isn't compatible with XFCE? Compatibility is not my concern, it is just that I would rather not have to install a bunch of KDE-specific libraries, especially for something I use so infrequently. All other things equal, a paint program that is either native to XFCE or Desktop agnostic wo...

Assuming both biological parents are fit to take care of their shared children, the default should be joint custody.

However, it is short-sighted to think that a person's sex(or even biological relatedness) are relevant in issues of custody.

The original feminists were primarily concerned with ending discrimination against women, but like many social movements, it has been taken over by extremists and psychopaths. As a result, the scales have not been balanced, but rather flung to the opposite side of balanced. Some men are garbage and ...

Given the tendency for Networks to deport all their good stuff to their Premium-Only Sister networks, I sometime wonder if media producers get kickbacks for every subscription to a premium television service. Honestly, if I was living alone, I would forsake television services altogether in favor of...

The stereotypes in this thread are so thick you could cut them with a knife. Seriously though, as the cost of transporting items goes up, it is only natural for services that rely on said transport to raise their prices. Besides, Netflicks always struck me as being a service for those too lazy to ge...

In general, I find that the average quality of American animation has gone downhill since the early 90s, and not just Cartoon Network's original shows either. As for Adult Swim, I find that their original programming is more often crap than good, and the really good stuff has new episodes so infrequ...

While vanilla Photoshop is far more powerful the GIMP, the GIMP wins for being free and cross-platform. However, I prefer Kolourpaint for the rare occasions when I do raster digital artwork, though I might find a replacement for it since I have switched from KDE to XFCE. Actually, I am more comforta...

I think what Zelda100 has been trying to say is that he does not know if the Mario and company window was kept for the 3DS version as he has only played the N64 original. Anyways, I have a question for those who have played Ocarina 3D: Is there any incentive to buy this version if I already have the...

Personally, I always thought it strange the all but White and Orange Chao have a jewel counterpart*, though I think Diamond would have been a good name for White's Jewel counterpart. Never even thought of connection to birthstones. Also, the unused breeds look pretty cool. I especially like the thir...

Media playback: My Cowon A3 has far superior format support plus a larger harddrive. Gaming: Any proper gaming handheld has a superior game library plus proper controls. Mobile Internet: my Samsung Acclaim has this covered. Also, all of the above will actually fit in my pockets. Might be a little ou...

I do not find TMZ entertaining, or the majority of whats on television for that matter, and they should have more respect for celebrities' privacy. However, I have to side with letting them continue to be on television due to the principle of free expression.

If you do not like it, do not watch it.

You can only get one Gold Egg and one Silver Egg per save file for the main game.

I will be 25 in October. In practical terms it is just a meaningless number.

I assume with that much power it could emulate possibly Xbox 360/Wii and below. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Existing ARM-based emulators are still trying to perfect N64 and PS1(Granted that is with a 600 mhz Cortex A8 as the benchmark while the Vita is using a Cortex A9 of unknown speed thoug...

I have only played the SNES Original and the first Gameboy Color entry.

Why not?

It actually is. Many older people have many pills they have to take due to diabetes, surgeries, vitamin deficiencies, etc. I have to take a prescription allergy medication in the Spring now. Before I post a rebuttal, I feel some background on why I use to think it normal(perhaps natural would have ...

Unless the Federal Government gets its act together regarding how they spend taxpayers' money, I do not see NASA being able to finance a Shuttle replacement anytime soon. Hell, budget limitations is what forced them to use the Shuttles for so long after their originally planned retirement date. Sinc...

Between what I learned from the evolution thread in Contributions and seeing these hacked Chao, I am guessing that a Chao's shape is parametric instead of being static models, and the first and second evolutions are only a small subset of the actual possibilities. Which raises a few questions: -Othe...

I cannot think of any animal that I particularly dislike, but I am fond of the Lion and Dragon.

If they ever do another Chao game, I would like to see all 36 existing animals return, and each category expanded.

Why don't we just ask the programmers/Sega about it? I'm pretty sure they have the exact info all down somewhere in their database. Assuming you could actually get an interview with some of the original Chao programmers and that they were at liberty to answer our questions, there is a good chance t...

It also does not help that 5* generations of audio/video input/output are competing and many Televisions have support for them all. It really is not that hard, but it can confuse the hell out of people who are not tech savvy. *Coax Cable; stereo audio(red/white) + composite video(Yellow); S-video; C...
