Shibathedog Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Lets face it, Bootdiscs are annoying, and you dont want to use a freeloader/action replay to boot every import every time so modify!! http://cube.ign.com/articles/099/099712p1.html Im thinking about adding the switch to mine!!

Alpha Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Wow that is awesome. If you make a switch and sell it on eBay, you'd make a ton of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Problem is you can only play NTSC and J-NTSC games, none of the PAL ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PokeParadox Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 yeah it also doesn't help PAL gamers... >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibathedog Posted April 20, 2004 Author Share Posted April 20, 2004 hmm...ah well 10 bucks for the Freeloader isnt that bad, but thats only Japnese/USA I suppose youll have to buy the Gamecube Action Replay if you wanna play PAL games then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobRedthorp Posted April 20, 2004 Share Posted April 20, 2004 (edited) I take it there is no US version of the freeloader to play PAL imports? Mind you, why would you want to play PAL games when they are released in the states first? I have the opposite problem living in the UK, lol Edited April 20, 2004 by BobRedthorp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokeParadox Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 ocassionally Ninty do release in the UK first (well Europe) e.g. Mario Kart DD... although it was by about 3 days or something... :S I'm sorry but that does not let NTSC gamers feel our pain! Anyone remember 1080 on N64?... Held back a YEAR for PAL gamers because it took to long to release it that "snowboarding season" was over... right.... >.> Anyway I was meaning a mod to play PAL/NTSC since I'm a PAL gamer. I take it there is no US version of the freeloader to play PAL imports? Mind you, why would you want to play PAL games when they are released in the states first? I have the opposite problem living in the UK, lol No... most people in the US don't even have PAL capability on their TVs from what I can gather from a friend...

Wizard Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 No... most people in the US don't even have PAL capability on their TVs from what I can gather from a friend...Nope, we don't have TV's that run at 60HZ. And its useless to play pal games on a TV here unless you have a VGA Box or a video card that as Video-In. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobRedthorp Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 (edited) The problem with PAL gamers is that we have to wait for the game to be made into other European languages, which is a pain in the arse as it would be so easy to just convert the US version to PAL, but I guess that would only help us Brits, I find that games look better graphically at 50Hz but at 60Hz you get a hugely smoother gameplay with no black boarder but the scanlines/picture can sometime look stretched, but I guess in the long run, 60Hz allways wins Edited April 22, 2004 by BobRedthorp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaioshade Posted April 22, 2004 Share Posted April 22, 2004 which is why you only play games that are 480p. if only the ps2 had progressive scanning capabilities. then i would be a very happy gamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
