would have been a cool option to have in the Genny version, could have been done similar to Zero Tolerance's link option. :o

Yeah, maybe it's co-op! Would probably work better than two Sketch Turners duking it out. :p

Ah, so that's why! :rofl:

I dunno, it did that on my emulator too, and VisualBoyAdvance is in general pretty accurate, so I guess it's just because of how crap a port it is! :p

Although I guess it makes them easier to ignore when they stand out like that.

Yep, I be a furry! *Yiffs* :twisted:
Sorry if my text is hard to read, but it's better than when I was posting in lime green on a forum with a white background! :o

Note to self: Change font to green text in future.

No! Don't do that! Just use regular, black text. It makes you look more intelligent.

If you use the blue theme (as do I), that should be all the more reason to not use blue text.

Aw! I don't think it blends in too much, I can read it fine... you could highlight it, or just not bother to read my posts, you wouldn't be missing much. :p

Sega always mess up Genesis Ports on the GBA

Okay, since the GBA uses a 16Mhz ARM cpu that can both multiply and add at the same time in one cycle, vs the Genesis using a 7Mhz 68000 where the simplest instructions can't take less than 4 cycles each, then what exactly do you mean by Blastprocessing?

Not all of them, at least the Outrun port is decent

Do you mean on Sega Arcade Gallery??

That's not a Genesis Port

God, cant you take a joke. :p

Anyway, as I've mentioned the GBA port of SNES Earthworm Jim 2 is also a mess, rather like this and Sonic Genesis. (though there's a fan hack of Sonic which fixes it, with smooth gameplay and quality, authentic-sounding music)

I think he was joking, referring to Sega's old marketing strategy. :p

The morons that handled the port (Virtucraft) are the same assholes that made the P.O.S. that was Mortal Kombat Advance (thank god for Deadly Alliance GBA and Tournament Edition)

I don't hate the GBA really, but most of the ports on it were often poorly handled.
