    Did You Preorder?

    Add an option to the poll for 'no. can't afford one.' because despite the fact I badly want one, I just don't have the money that I can spend on it.

    Gamebook Creator/player?

    Well what came to my mind was a book based on zelazny's amber chronicals. It was simple-ish, but it showed the potential these books had beyond fifth grade reading material.

    Gamebook Creator/player?

    Well my initial thought was something along the lines of one of those adventure books as a base, but then i remembered the lonewolf project for the ds which had stats, inventory, and even a few minigames for good measure, though having an odd throwback to infocom goodness would be nice too. I'm...

    Gamebook Creator/player?

    For those who didn't know about Gamebooks, they were novels which had a nice success during the 80's, and which were allowing the readers to choose their own path by jumping from one numbered section to another, in a fun and interactive way. They were introducing the concepts of inventory...

    Encourage Early Adopters

    Query: Hypothetical scenrio, one of the people preordering ends up changing address, for whatever reason. What will the arrangements be, wait till its ready to ship, send out an email to confirm the shipping address? Would that even be possible?

    Then why wasn't it an option to switch control behavior? After all not EVERYBODY has the wheel.

    Maybe its just me then, I dunno. I just never could get used to how gta and similar games handled controls.

    Quake 3

    +1 to pandora only servers since, lets face it, keyboard + mouse murders controller in most cases. Just look at the dreamcast q3 when you have pc players join in. However it should be left as an option you can enable or disable at server startup since otherwise you'll get grief about people...

    How The Touchscreen Works?

    My request for devs that're working on the desktop and such. PLEASE allow the option of using the gamepad/keypad for moving around and selecting items. given how I've used the DS I find being able to switch between one or the other a blessing as while in a 'desktop' enviroment I can select and...

    Will Pandora Satisfy My Music Needs?

    Besides you'd be recompressing already compressed fies, which is at best unessicary and at worse you can lose even more of the waveform to the reencode. Now FLAC to ogg I'd be on board for.

    Opengta

    See, the thing that prevented me from playing and enjoying gta 1/2 was the reletive direction controls. Sorry, but if I push up I want to go UP not left, or right, or wherever I face. Reletive controls work for FIRST PERSON PRESPECTIVE ONLY, not third, not overhead, FIRST and FIRST PERSON ONLY...

    Playing Adom On Pandora?

    How 'bout vulture's eye/claw? Same thing as nethack (or slash 'em in the case of vulture's claw), but in addition to the 'normal' tilesets you also get an isometric view. Hey, the DS has powder, so why not?

    Video Out Question

    What kind of cabling will be used for video out? I'm kinda hoping the standard red/white/yellow or red/yellow variety so that the problems normally associated with propritary connectors to the gizmo (in this case it possibly being too short) are sidesteped by being able to go to walmart and...
