Fatal Rose Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Whenever I join a forum it always seems to be an underdog type forum. Not overwhelming with posts or members. Besides Sherdog.net all the forums I frequent seem to be like 1emu. Odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krosigrim Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) This is what I'm thinking. Emulation... in this case, has passed it's apex. Everything is out... and then some, and the DEMAND for the cool new programs arent like they used to. Any question is likely covered in our threads. All one needs to do is run google. Also, when we had more active members... there was more material to comment on or what have you. It's kinda hard for me to comment on more than 3-4 threads a day now. I don't remember the last time I saw my posts over 30 in a day. I see Gamefaq always has alot of activity, but that is like a staple. Who here does NOT go to game faq, so therefore, that site just plain has alot of hits. A numbers game. I'm sure this is all obvious.. and I don't have need to explain this all... but What would it take to flip it back. It would take people to actually be interested it threads... Which means more demand of posters... which depends on threads... a catch 22? Is that the right reference? So your saying all of this is common... That it's not just us...

Fatal Rose Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 Maybe change the theme of the site somewhat? We keep the name but gear more towards general gaming and entertainment instead of just emulation? I don't know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krosigrim Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Well you and I are no stranger to the different threads we have. Sh!t... my posts are 66% in the lounge. Perhaps for getting new members, I see the point. But how else could you get attention, other that changing the name of the site... whaich Id not do if it were up to me. I know you were just sayin'... but I was just putting my 2 cents in on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veristic Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 There's nothing on-going to talk about. The focus would be emulation but the scene is deserted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krosigrim Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Indeed. Is it not unlike being in the car w/ someone, but neither of you are talking... because there is nothing to talk about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L.S.D Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Unless someone out there emulated SFIV, Tekken 6 or Atomiswave, i don't see an emulation revival. Heck, even CPSIII emu didn't generate much interest like Neo-Geo use to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavin19 Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Unless someone out there emulated SFIV, Tekken 6 or Atomiswave, i don't see an emulation revival. Heck, even CPSIII emu didn't generate much interest like Neo-Geo use to. Even that would only be temporary. The whole CPS3 thing just seemed to fly by. Modern emulators are progressing nicely but are still out of the reach of most people as they require too much CPU power. Not to mention that they are still glitchy/no sound for the most part. Plus these emus already have their own dedicated forums anyway, something which never really happened before. If people are saying emulation has passed it's apex then why continue flogging a dead horse? Why not change the name of the site and broaden the scope? If emulation is 'dying' then surely 1emulation will/is slowly dying with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucandrake Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 The smash bro's thing might help ^.^. I can see why GC wanted to team up with dolphin o.0. Bleh, this sucks, no matter the plan for reviving 1Emu, it's always up to GC, post idea's dood! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
