The comparison doesn't work because the handheld version of something is obviously better than the living room version of it. If you can play something in the train and on your television, you won't buy something that can only do it on your television.

Well the example also works with QuickTime Player 2.5, but that's older ;).

You mean like my colourd?

If we follow your logic, then Apple porting iTunes to Windows should be like crashing an asteroid in your foot, right? I mean, Steve Jobs can't possibly stupid enough to give away one of their best pieces of software to the concurrence and thus lose Mac sales to PCs because who won't buy Macs...

Yes, that's quite the spirit of the idea! But as an extension of my idea, there's also the hope that we'll take homebrew to the next level by scaling up the community an order of magnitude and instead of being the jack of all trades and do everything you have to (like cross-platform stuff) some...

Duh, well all games aren't as simple as your Cowsuckers. And in some others like one of mine it's all about changing two #defines.

Oh yeah I totally hadn't thought about that. Good point. Why can't LCDs just wait for you to tell them to refresh? ;)

Yeah you know, that's how it already works. I mean, we make apps for the GP2X, but we almost all have fully featured PC builds of them. It's just that GP2X games translate poorly into PC games, the main reason being that it's hard to make a game for a 320x240 screen that works well on a much...

Well I think the good thing about my idea is that it kind of centralises and thus organises homebrew development, and by that I think that basically we'll have game creators who won't go out of their way too much and around them in the community a bunch of enthusiasts dedicated to porting what...

Besides the fact that all gamepads are well recognised all in the same way by SDL and that it's easy to handle this problem, PC hardware disparity is not a problem because all you need is a PC that can run what the Pandora can run, which is 100% of all PCs sold within the last ~7 years. Way to...

Ever heard of gamepads? Besides, you're exaggerating the problem, not all games will rely on the analog sticks, and the arrow keys are better than lots of d-pads.

Here's what I think : when the Pandora will be out there and this community (which is if I'm not mistaken the most active homebrew gaming community out there, correct?) will smoothly transition to it, I think it would be a great time for a paradigm shift in the community, and mainly in the...

Did I mention I'd make a graphical editor for my ARSS on the Pandora?

Thanks a thousand times for your invaluable input, Goity. By the way, #gp2xdev misses you ;-)

As some of you know I moved to Ireland a month ago and unfortunately I didn't find a job yet. I had a couple interviews with recruiting agencies, one (recruiters.ie) that didn't yield any results, and the next one (from HeadHunt International) isn't going to do anything until I turn my old...

Big whoop, I can already do that with my ARSS. Well it's not as convenient because you have to take care of every harmonics, but with some automated harmonics grouping you could do that. But they kind of could have done that as well, figure out how many notes are being played in a chord, isolate...

I don't see what's the problem, or rather, I see what the problem is, but I fail to understand what would be better than that. I mean, there's only so many frames a screen can display in a second, so you have to produce only that many. If your game loop is so fast you have to wait for v-sync...

Well I have (turned down donations). You can't donate to me on SourceForge and once someone said they'd donate to me I said I'd rather have them donate some of their time to experimenting with my ARSS and give their money to the red cross instead.

Great idea. Now to find someone to manufacture my Adolf Schwarznigger (A_SN) action figure... Basically Adolf Hitler's face on Arnold Schwarzenegger's body, except all black and with Mr. T's bling. Now to find some cool punchlines its integrated loud speaker could say.. -Seig Heil, sucka! -I...
