WTF is this?

[RAZO]

Some aes inserts are very difficult to replicate with a standard printer. If you notice certain games like real bout special use that shiny ink (don't know what is called) certain places. Similar to what you see on certain trading cards or comics. From a distance in a picture it's hard to spot a fake but up close if you have the original game you should be able to tell the difference.

you all can´t read ! Conversion, tsts.......

The games he is selling are "prototypes, unreleased, fan-translated or localized games". Now you know !

we can read but if you don't understand the discussion at hand you should just log out.

How exactly are those not considered conversions? Sounds like you need to watch some reading rainbow yourself.

I like to think his comment was sarcastic...if not then lol

 

[Pasky]

Ah, reading it again I guess it could be.

 

[Takumaji]

I want to beat the shit out of conversion makers.

Their shit's also a conversion. It was grey matter before.

I'd agree, except his location listing implies he's French.

EDIT: To make it clear, I'm saying the French lack sophisticated wit.

of course it was sarcastic, but some of you doesn´t seem to understand LOL

@Beefjerky: since when is cologne in france ? I would surely know if I would eat froglegs and not toasted white bread, et je ne parle pas francais

My feelings exactly...

I once went through ebay reporting all the aes conversions for a couple of weeks but absolutely nothing happened, nothing was taken off the site and I received no response from ebay. Gave up after that.

Has anyone else tried this and had any joy?

 

[housethemous]

I don't mind conversions and repros as long as it's PROPERLY LISTED ON THE COVER.

This shit is just scam... Hope no one gets ripped buying from him or his buyers in the future.

The conversion makers use professional printers so I wouldn't count on that.

Why not? To make a conversion you have to destroy a perfectly fine MVS cart (to get the chips) and almost all of the time a perfectly fine homecart as well (to get the boards, very seldom reproductions are used). FUCK THAT SHIT! Conversions hurt this hobby

Even people living in France are in denial, wishing they weren't. XD

It depends on what aspect you are addressing. From a philosophical point of view (which is what I believe he is addressing), the issue is marking the conversions such that people are not fooled into paying original cart prices. From a practical point of view, you are correct, in that the sacrificing of up to two carts (note that most "conversions" these days are boots and simply use EPROMS) is destroying the ability of new gamers to join the Neo fold and play the original games on original hardware (although even in that regard, once a proper Neo everdrive is released and proper game dumps are made, the availability of original carts will be a non-issue for gamers).

I agree fully with the first part of your post. However I believe that even if we get a flash cart for the Neo it would still be a shame to destroy carts for conversions/boots - there simply is NO need/reason/justification. If you want to play a game on your homesystem you can't afford on homecart, get a converter/adapter.

Everdrives have had zero effect on rising game prices on the other systems they're available. Why do you think it would stop rising prices on the Neo?

Not being a dick, just wondering.

 

[GohanX]

You're absolutely right, but if there were a Neo Everdrive I would no longer give any fucks about the game pricing.

 

[Syn]

I agree and the quality wouldn't be an issue vs. multishits.

I don't see anything where I talk about pricing.

No problem! I'll rephrase the statement before my question for you as I'm interested in your answer.

once a proper Neo everdrive is released and proper game dumps are made, the availability of original carts will be a non-issue for gamers).

Now it is taken out of context so forgive me.

With the other systems that have Everdrives, the availability of original games seems to have decreased due to greater demand. I'm not sure if it's because someone had the chance to play game X finally and wants an original or they think their collection would be more complete or what. The pricing of games is ever rising too. Why do you think the Neo would be any different?

Or did you just mean they'll have the properly dumped games and can just shut the hell up about it
