What's the Gaf stance on Power Stone 2? Superior to the original? Different but still good? Inferior?

Vastly different and inferioir.
Changed from fighting game to party game where the board is more likely to kill you than any opponent.
don't you think power stone is better suited to a party game anyway? no block and all
Had a hard time choosing between VOOT for $10 or Toy Commander for $10. ended up passing on VOOT since I have it for XBLA.
As soon as I lose interest too, oh well.Anyone interested in the GDEMU, orders are back up:

Oh damn, the dollar isnt too bad on the Euro right now too... I wonder If they take Paypal.
Yeah all sales are final on the GDEMU. Even on defective units, the best he can do is limites repair. After the headache I had with the Mega EverDrive, I think I'll pass. Bummer.
Whoever is purchasing that GDEMU that posts in this thread, please, please post impressions.
Hmmm... alright. I'll await more impressions from other Gaff members. I've just had too much bad luck with mod type stuff.
Ehhhhno returns even on defective units
Hi guys. I was wondering if anyone can reccommend a good VGA to HD converter box (VGA to HDMI) for the dreamcast in the UK. Bought one from amazon for about £12 and while it give me sound and picture, the picture gives me subtle black vertical lines down the screen. The original VGA picture is superior. I know Adam Koralik recommended a good one, but that seems to not exist anymore and its in the states too.
Any help much appreciated.
This, I learned that the hard way.2) Never take Adam Koralik's advice on A/V equipment without extensive verification from people who actually know what they're talking about.
1) Try VGA-to-component transcoders instead of VGA-to-HDMI. HDMI converters tend to mess up the Dreamcast's horizontal resolution, which may be causing the artifacts you're seeing. Unfortunately, these converters may also be difficult to find now. I personally use an Audio Authority 9A60A.

OHHHH. So *that's* what happens! I always wondered why VGA looked like arse on all the TV displays I used it on. I suspect there's a stretch option that would probably fix that, now I think of it.I can't vouch for any specific model other than the one I've bought. In general, you want to be looking for something that just transcodes the color space from VGA (RGBHV) to component (YPbPr), and you do NOT want it to scale the image.
The Dreamcast VGA's signal is a 720x480 frame (NTSC video standard), but with only a 640x480 picture drawn inside it (actual VGA resolution). It has black bars on the left and right, leaving a 4:3 picture inside if you're displaying square pixels. On a CRT computer monitor, this is all fine. You just adjust the monitor's display so that the picture fills the entire screen, without any scaling concerns.
But on a flat-screen or a digital upscaler, this can get messy. Lots of HDTVs and converters assume that a 480p signal coming from a VGA source is a 640x480 picture inside a 640x480 frame, and they scale it as such. So, this messes up the Dreamcast's signal by squashing the image horizontally, and you can't undo all the damage after that.
A simple transcoder should just change the color space and leave all of the rest of that stuff alone.
You too! I hope we're all going to hug our Dreamcast todayHappy 9/9 everyone.
Happy 9/9 everyone.
You got to get it to work someday man, it's glorious in VGA!!!Except Fighting Vipers 2, since I still can't get that to display through VGA TT_____TT

Actually kinda surprised there's no happy birthday thread. The Dreamcast is the only system that gets those consistently.
