Wonderswan

@xsq
Any luck with customs or still taking a while?

 

[xsq]

3 games (Tekken CC, GunpayEX, One Piece Colosseum) have arrived customs free... still waiting on the system +FF1.

Doh...

German customs ... anything between 2 days and 1 year (friend of mine has stuff stuck in customs since last november (100% lost)) is possible.

 

[xsq]

yeah, I know...

 

[Ren-chan]

Still waiting xsq? Didn't see you posting here so... I fear it's still being held over there

 

[xsq]

Oh, no no, I got it (even customs free ), will post a pic in recent purchases for you when I get home.

I haven't really gotten into the system yet, somehow I need some time to get used to the way I need to hold my hands, but I played some Gunpay EX and Takken Card Challenge - both solid games (I'm experiencing cramp ups in Colosseum so I can't say much about it atm).

 

[wyndcrosser]

Too many posts, but did you guys know of the new Flashmasta cart in the works? It's a flashcart for Wonderswan.

 

[Ren-chan]

@wyndcrosser: Yup

@xsq: Oh cool lol. After a decade waiting I'd laugh if the system didn't work properly hahaha. Glad you can play it already it's nice it only uses 1 battery and lasts for quite a long. Man, I totally need Guilty Gear games for my swan

I knew about the cart, that's actually what prompted me to get a Swan to begin with

it works fine... I imagined the system to be heavier, but I'm fine with the plastic it is ^^

Guilty Gear: Yeah man, I need those too... wonder if anyone ever made a reproduction for the "WonderCoin" that came with them (may be something for the 3D print guys?).

 

[Ren-chan]

Is there a cooooin? O:
*googles it*

 

[pulstar]

The Wondercoin definitely does make a difference to the Guilty Gear games, but it's still far from perfect and once it's on, it's on for good.

I'm still trying and hoping to find someone to do a light mod on a wonderswan for me.

So, if you want to become an early adopter of the WonderSwan Flash Masta now is your chance:

I'm still on the fence myself. I respect flavor for what they are doing and I would love to help them, but I'd prefer to support the development directly until their cart design is further along and they've worked out some of the issues it still seems to have. I'd be OK with a Kickstarter situation, I fully trust flavor, but I don't want to put down $100 for a prototype that I would later replace with the finished product (for another $100 (or more)).

Me too man. I'd get it on a swan crystal if the prices haven't skyrocket for no damn reason.

 

[lolifoxgirl]

Ill be light modding my swancrystal after it gets here. And by me, I mean one of the locals. The gba001 front light supposedly is pretty much drop in.

[jdotaku]

I agree - I'm goin' for it though. Even a prototype is a better deal than buying a wonderdog/wonderwitch cart and a dumper/flasher from japan.

Anyone else get in on the Wonderswan Masta protos? I've had mine since last Friday and am loving it.

I passed on this. was gonna wait for final version. I own most of the playable wonderswan games already, so this would only be for dicing knight and judgement.


Was there ever translation patches completed for anything wonderswan?

 

[GohanX]

Same, I'll buy a final version with the quickness but I'm not paying to be a beta tester.

 

[NeoSneth]

to answer my own question,
yes, a few games did get translation patches.

I totally agree - but also knowing how freaking long these things take to get completely finished. I'll gladly hop on early due to impatience. It could be another year before anything get's "officially released" ya' know?
