Most Important Feature Of Pandora

[slaanesh]

Does anyone else remember pressing your thumbs over both speakers on boot up, or using a dummy headphone plug to mute the sound on the GP2X?

I still do this.

Startup sounds are a waste of time. There are better things the computer could be doing, like, starting up.

I hate the startup dings, flings and floops on the GBA, DS.

Whoever thought of putting those in should have been shot. With a Howitzer.

Harsh.

I think I've narrowed it down to a Duke Nukem sound or "Shadow Boxing is Prohibited" In Japanese.

 

[Gilrad]

How about the Doom death sound? That would turn a few heads

 

[Prometheus]

how about captain planet theme song...

Pandora... the power is yours!

The problem was that Captain Planet was a hypocrite, and that's probably not the best thing to be associated with.

Ah, the Neo Geo pocket... sadly under-appreciated in its day.
It startup sound was so... happy.

Best thumb stick on any handheld ever.
No mere d-pad will ever come close.

 

[conso]

why not the other way round? YOU have to make a noise to make the pandora start. Never thought of turning on a device with a nice loud fart? Or the bob-the-genie-way of activating by sneezing. Alwas think of taking some pepper with your pandora

thanks for that video, its just...awesome.
the only thing i dont like is that its loud, but the feel of it is awesome.

To be able to personalize as much as possible. When the device starts up, I want it to play the opening of Cult by Slayer.

 

[t22r91s]

Nothing beats the old 'Da Ding' when the old gameboy started up. Some amazing memories will erupt with that sound.

Win!

"Come get some!"

Absolutely agree - still got my NGP, although sadly my game collection is a little lacking, owing to the fact it got discontinued literally a month after I bought it and games became either rare or stupidly expensive overnight

You might want to take a look at Play-Asia's selection, Thecko. They've got quite a number of games, some of them at pocket-change prices.
