Questions for OlderGames

Post by Trev » Thu Aug 09, 2007 8:34 pm

I have 3 questions relating to the new, and fututre 3DO releases ....

1) Were the # copies of Decathalon based on when you ordered them? (I got # 48 but placed my order when there was still a dozen or so copies available) Either way, I like the game quite a bit, despite the occasional freezing.

2) I tried the IceBreaker bonus dvd on 2 different players w/no success ... any thoughts?

3) Seems like frog feast is coming out for multiple systems. What are the chances for a 3DO version?

Keep up the good work! :)

i dont think the numbers were based on when you ordered it, because i mailed my order in and i got #3 and he had about 20 left when i sent my money to them

It's a labor of love. I think Mr. Doty is aiming to port it to
about 50 more platforms and then make a two player version
that has online score keeping and a bread maker attachment.
and the Jag just got its port now :)
i will just play my original atari 2600 version :D

I've considered developing it for the 3DO, just not sure if there's a demand for it.

I would order it. It would be cool to see another 3DO game out there.
This is a stick up! Put all of your 3DO games in the bag and nobody gets hurt!

Did you get a 3DO development environment up and working? Or would you avoid the official SDK because it includes copyrighted code?

And for #2, it looks like the DVD just has the video of the creator introducing the game -- the same video that's up on YouTube. So, you're not missing much.

Yep, I got it set up under Basilisk II.

I would probably use the SDK, since it seems pretty straight forward.

Once MESS 3DO emulation progresses to the point of being usable, it would be worth writing a new library for the 3DO.

New library you say? New games coming, you say? Nice, it would be nice. The system was never pushed to it's limits and I would love to see that one day.
