I was at NCFC2012!

So, I was fairly absent from most of the internet lately, and it's because of this: http://www.nintendocfc.com/

The Nintendo Community Fangame Convention. I was handling the Livestream for it, much like last year.

I had quite a bit of fun with the promotional skits and such. I also did a few Live streams of fangames. They may be up on my Youtube sooner or later.

Attendance wasn't as high as 2011. Apparently the Mario folks didn't all realize it was happening. Aw, well! There's always next year.

I hate not having electricity. :(

If anyone wants to know why there was a sudden lack of me on any sites the past... 3 days, you can blame Sandy.
I'm kinda trying to catch up with the rest of the internet now, but I want to have an update to the actual Satellablog sooner or later.

BTW, I suppose no one here wants to buy an overpriced Wikipedia-copying book, no? Well, it seems there's quite a bit like this one. Maybe I could've read this when the power was out while I was being bored to death.

So, why aren't people playing Hot Scramble Final?

About a year ago, the "NonGood" NES ROM set featured a slew of ROM dumps of what have been considered the rarest and most valuable pieces of Famicom history, including Safety Rally, Tailor Made, and Z Gundam Hot Scramble Final.


I downloaded the set just to check out these ROMs.
This particular article focuses on Hot Scramble Final.
You can watch some gameplay of it which I upped on Youtube at the time here... after the jump, that is.

NicoNicoDouga is full of strange, old videogame content.

And in this case I'm not even talking about anything Satellaview-y or anything.
Lately I've been trying to pull out Videogame PVs and other promotional material from the site. Here's one I archived recently;

I still have stuff from the old MikeysTMNT.com after all these years.

Here's some proof that I store really old internet stuff for a long time.

The soundtrack for the "Mutant Turtles: Choujin Densetsu Hen" anime OVAs, I recall very well, used to be on MikeysTMNT.com along with a bunch of other neat(?) Ninja Turtles soundtrack obscurities.

Now, it's kinda strange, because the site still gets updates on a regular basis and all, and is always neat and stuff for TMNT info... but for some reason, the "Multimedia" page has been inaccessible since... I think it was around the same timeframe the 2k3 series was running? Memory's kinda foggy there, but a long time regardless. And even though it appears the only reason it's gone is because there's no index.html file, there doesn't seem to be any sign of it popping back.

Maybe I should actually hop into the TMNT communities (instead of just lurking) and actually try asking about it, but I figured after all these years if it wasn't going to be resolved, it never would be, and just shrugged it.

So then I uploaded onto Youtube those anime OVA soundtrack tracks. Of course, they're not entirely the same there as they were on MikeysTMNT.com, because Wiki Magic has let me identify tracks and separate the "Power Up Turtles" single tracks from the Soundtrack album tracks.

I put the Soundtrack tracks in this playlist, if anyone is interested.

... And yeah, I kinda just wrote this to pass time.

Has this Sega Channel Prototype been going around lately?

I only uploaded this to Youtube a while back, but this Sega Channel Prototype ROM was originally circulating on the Digitpress forums a year or so back. I managed to find that thread, even. Whee!

I remember posting about it (and mirroring the contents) over here, too.

Here's hoping someday I can find the Japanese Sega Channel BIOs, and that Demo Kiosk I played "The Punisher" on...

Hey, you know what?

Since this website is kinda sitting here being unused otherwise, I suppose I'll just try posting some unrelated (to Satellaview) stuff here from now on.

I'm not entirely sure what the nature of said stuff would be though. Maybe it'd be for a more personal blog?

Maybe it'd be to showcase my Youtube uploads?

I'm not entirely sure....

Obviously enough, the (no longer so) new Satellablog still has plenty of content. If anyone happens to still be here, let me give a re-linking reminder;

I also just started some (real) work on another blogspot blog - this time it's for the Sega Pico.

Besides that? Huh, good question.
