Apple ][e in Elementry


 I used this in 5th through 8th grade for word processing (Microsoft Word) and online encyclopedias through Netscape Navigator. The public school had an Power Macintosh 5200.


I used Apple ][e in 1990 - 1994 from 1st to 5th grade. The school thought keyboarding, yet everyone in the class used Oregon Trail, Space Invaders, some Disney game, Number Munchers.

SHMUPs Episode IV: CAVE-MAME

I think that MAME killed arcades in the United States, and that I am the only person who reveals it. There are $1000 MAME cabinets on Ebay and MAME works on GP2x Cannoo. It is obvious. MAME has been downloadable since 1997 approximately when arcades started to decrease in popularity. The Frankfurt School controls the Arcades died because... articles so they can't mention MAME even if they wanted to. I released my MAME Rom list back in 2006 on this site.


DonPachi 1995 Atlus
DoDonPachi 1997 Atlus
Peak Performance 1997 Atlus
Steep Slope Sliders 1997 Capcom

I found Espgaluda and Mushihime-sama on the MAME UI list. I couldn't find them on the Rom site. I only have these Espgaluda and Mushihime-sama DVD images for PCSX2. Aksys Games publishes Cave Shumps in the United States.

Owning Panzer Dragoon Saga since today

I remember an article in 2005 Game Informer issue where Panzer Dragoon Saga is the most desired collector's game, because nobody played it. I owned Panzer Dragoon, Panzer Dragoon II Zwei, and Panzer Dragoon Orta for six years. I bought Panzer Dragoon at Funcoland in November 2000 and was reading all the Saturn reviews at Dave's Sega Saturn Page. In 2000, I wanted to play Nights into Dreams and Sonic 3D Blast; whereby, I would have all the mainstream consoles in 32-bit age.

I also got to play Radiant Silvergun and DoDonPachi in SSF from a Megaupload download.

In January 2007, I torrented it and I played the first three CDs in SSF emulator on Windows. Today, I bought a copy for $167 off Amazon. On Ebay, Panzer Dragoon Saga was only $300+. I got Valkyrie Profile on PSP, the Playstation equivalent in price. Another Saturn game I've been eyeing is Guardian Heroes, a sequel to a highly rated Gunstar Heroes. Guardian Heroes is on Xbox 360 arcade, and got a 8.5 out of 10.





Panzer Dragoon Saga never went down in price as people got tired of it. I was hoping it is somewhat of a collector's item for attention on Youtube. Panzer Dragoon Saga is a milestone to get over 200 views on Youtube. Guardian Heroes would also attract attention, not as much as Panzer Dragoon Saga.

I'll post a photo when it arrives.

PS4 went x64

Sony was developing a lot of videogames on PC so the pubilsher thought to add an AMD x64 CPU and a Radeon HD 7850, 2 GB of GDDR5 to their PS4. Sony wants you to be able to use Bluray on Playstation 4, otherwise Bluray would be replaced soon. I don't know of any Bluray competitors or successors.


Microsoft is working on a 6 core ARM CPU and Radeon HD 7850 for Xbox Loop.

This is great news, because I dislike paying $60 for DirectX 9.0c. PS3 and Xbox 360 should sell new games at $40 considering their DirectX 9.0c quality. 3DS has it at this price point.

I happen to look at System16.com and noticed Namco, Capcom Taito, and SEGA all went to Intel X64 motherboards! The MAME cabinet is replacing all arcade cabinets out there. Advance MAME Linux DVD.
