[L_believer]

pokemon for PC?? I have Pokemon Crytal Gameboy version at my PC and you can run it with VBA software, is that you mean?? Or there's really an pokemon for PC??

 

[Mechanical Man]

Surely are a bunch of Game Boy emulators out there. I remember me and my friends played many these games on our PCs in the past.

 

[L_believer]

So the one you mean is pokemon that played in emulator, I have it but can't give it

 

[Kuhneghetz]

Emulators are free to use.
Roms are illegal, unless you legally own the original game. Don't ask us for links to romsites.

zophar.net has a good list of emulators for computers and consoles, plus more cool emulation utilities.

 

[Ratherion]

I have a GB Advance Emulator... with Pkmn Emrald, Kiby Dreamland and Metroid (forget wich one) I can have it in a RAR soon enough...

 

[operator]

Pokemon on PC kick ass !

Emulators and ROMs are illegal. I suggest deleting those links at once.

 

[eN.Lion]

wrong
emulators are totally legal
and ROMs are for archiving puproses only
so as long as you legally own a copy of the game it is legal to have
if you dont have a copy it is legal to have on your computer for up to 24 hours after you download it

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Can you make sure every person who uses that file HAS an N64, and all the games they use?

 

[eN.Lion]

no they work on the honor system BUT are not illegal

and thats like asking can you make shure every single person in the world dosent have a meth lab in their basement?

or a quarter sack in their pocket?

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

we already know drugs are illegal to possess, kthx. and honor system? what the hell are the chances that the next person to use the site you've linked to has the game he's about to download? I'm willing to bet the odds are astoundingly slim.

 

[Kimbo]

From what i remember they are legal as long as the game is not longer officially sold in stores etc.

and nice revival =_=

Bah, whatever. I'm not a Fair Use lawyer..
EDIT:

However, in the U.S. it has been illegal since 1983 for a user to create their own backups of video game ROMs onto other cartridges. This was decided in the court case of Atari v. JS&A. JS&A manufactured a "game backup" device that allowed users to dump their Atari ROMs onto a blank cartridge. JS&A argued that the archival rule allowed for this. The court disagreed, noting that ROM media was not subject to the same volatility as magnetic media (for which the law was created). Thus, not being so relatively vulnerable, ROMs were not applicable under section 17 USC 117(a)(2).

and nice revival =_=

whoa, this time it really IS a topic revival case in the Gamer's Hub, not just the result of slow forum activity..

 

[JarrardKO]

I don't think it's possible for a nintendo game to be a pc title. I don't think they could ever compete with microsoft in the pc game department.

this deals with the blank cartridge and this was also when these games were availible for retail sale

no they dont "compete" but it is a great way to play old games if your nintendo dosent work ne more like mine

we already know drugs are illegal to possess, kthx. and honor system? what the hell are the chances that the next person to use the site you've linked to has the game he's about to download? I'm willing to bet the odds are astoundingly slim.

yes i know the odds are slim but hey its not my problem if he/she uses it for illegal purposes

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Yes, i'm sure the thing that holds the software makes all the difference when you duplicate it.

Yes, I know if I spray someone's food with lead paint the odds are huge that it kills him/her, but hey it's not my problem if he/she dies.

 

[eN.Lion]

totally different but if thats what you want to think ok...
spraying someone with lead paint is attemptive murder witch is a whole nother world of wrong and it would be your fault because you knew it would cause them harm and like i said i dont know if he is going to use it for legal purrposes or not just like limewire so its not my problem

There's a CHANCE that spraying lead paint on food will not result in death. Because of that chance, in your logic, it's "not my problem"

 

[eN.Lion]

thats like saying if someone gave you a gun and u shoot someone they are to blame...

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

thats like saying if someone gave you a gun and u shoot someone they are to blame...

In your point of view, then, it should be legal to sell crack, meth, heroin, etc. But to use it would be illegal?

 

[eN.Lion]

no my point of veiw is the current law

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

no my point of veiw is the current law

Yes, that reminds me, you never had a rebuttal for my statement about the "current law"

Yes, i'm sure the thing that holds the software makes all the difference when you duplicate it.

 

[eN.Lion]

it matters BECAUSE that was a product that put the ROM onto a cartridge for play on its original system
and therefore was illegal but roms are NOT and obviously either the modoration sucks or takes my side because my links are still active and im not banned

It doesn't matter the vessel, it is still copied material, and if you use mod apathy as an argument for the legality of this, it's honestly not much to stand on.

 

[eN.Lion]

im just sayin ROMS are not illegal
the law is screwed up an contradicts itself deal with it
ROMS are legal

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the DMCA prevents this kind of stuff unless the game itself is not commercially available.

Exemptions

Computer programs and video games distributed in formats that have become obsolete and that require the original media or hardware as a condition of access*, when circumvention is accomplished for the purpose of preservation or archival reproduction of published digital works by a library or archive. A format shall be considered obsolete if the machine or system necessary to render perceptible a work stored in that format is no longer manufactured or is no longer reasonably available in the commercial marketplace. (A renewed exemption, first approved in 2003.)

*this section applies to roms

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

Obsolete means it is no longer commercially available.

 

[eN.Lion]

are nintendo/super nintendo etc. games still commercially availiable?

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

game boy color games are.

 

[eN.Lion]

very few
and most of those are resale witch does not count as commercially availiable
but now i see your point for some of it and will remove the link to GBA games b/c they are mostly availiable for retail sale

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

in the end, no one wins but the capitalists =(

 

[eN.Lion]

that is true ><'

random totally offtopic YAY hannah found my myspace =D

 

[Dr Super Good]

Ok, get back on topic.

Nentendo is not smart enough to make a game of decent qualty to utilize the supreme power of a P4 and DX9 graphic card.

But no, infact they make it for their WII with the power of less than my PC (which sucks) or their DS with the power of a computer for 2000 or eariler.
The fetures they could have in a PC only pokemon are.

Unlimated pokemon storage.
A sort of CTB combat system.
A better encountre system.
Active multiplayer (people on map)
Coop multiplayer (working as a group to fight random encounters)
A more complex breeding system.
No unlearning abilites.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

I don't like the idea of no unlearning abilities. I think the standard system of 4 moves is sufficient. To me, it's one of the more recognizable elements of gameplay for the pokemon franchise. But yeah, the pokemon community needs to be more of a widespread thing, with more multiplayer capabilities. Oh, and for encounters, what do you propose?

 

[Dr Super Good]

Well, A total redesign of the game system, since the orignal pokemon was made for primitive hand helds and so the cappililites were low compared to DX9/10 and dual/quad cores that are being more and more commonly used in PC gamming. Firstly everything would be fully 3D, saddly the graphics would still look rather simple because of the way pokemon are (alot lacking detailed textures) but still effects like HD lighting and AA would make it look all smooth and give debth like never seen before, ofcourse the graphics would be low or high depending on your computer so computers from 2 years or older ago should run it with mimimal problems (if not none).

The environment would have 2 options for random encounters, the traditional chance while walking method in areas and the actually seeing the pokemon on the field before battles, allowing you to avoid battles. The standard random battle method would be best to allow parties, and coop multiplaying, but the other would give a more understandable system (not the "OMG how can 2 squares of grass house 88+ pokemon" that all the portable pokemon had). But I say the traditional encounter system would be best because it just has that certian RPG style.

As for battles, I say upto 6V6 (a real pokemon fight out), this would encourage teamwork and planning. Also the traditional use of speed should be changed into something similar to FF's speed (the more the more rounds you get). Also you can then introduce the method of various moves requiring more time than others inbetween rounds, or before they are used. This will encourage the use of faster but maybe weaker moves over stronger moves in some circamstances. Some moves could be less dependant on speed, for example quick attack realy bennifits from speed (more speed = much faster next round) while blizzard would not (more speed = not so much faster next round), this would make some moves better for faster pokemon. Ofcourse the actuall damage of moves would be the same method of the 2 defences and 2 attack types. The entire PP system is a bit dated, and so to allow for not having to forget moves, the PP system would become a stat like HP that every move requires to move, do not have enough then you use the standard no PP move.

To ballence things out, a new kind of level up system would be added, that for the actual moves the pokemon has (like watergun can level up but only for that pokemon), this would mean that moves you do not use often eventually become usless, equally well if you just learned a strong move like thunder, it will be weak at first but as it levels up a bit it gains power. This would ballence TMs and HMs out since they will only allow the pokemon to level them up to about half the level of it normaly (1/4 for HMs) so that the pokemon can still use their power but will have the disadvantage of them being weaker than a pokemon that nativly learns the move. The advantages of leveling moves up would be eithor a higher accuracy against higher level opponents, better effect against higher level opponents (more stats reduced, higher chance of paralize, greater chance of flintching), or slightly more damage, especially against higher level opponents or even cheaper PP cost. This entire conscept is meant to be that as the pokemon learns how to use a move, its power and effectivness improves, so that seldomly practiced moves are weaker than the common one or are less accurate. The spells would only have 20 (atmost 40 but 20 would be enough) levels and leveling them would be hard. More comming soon.

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

lol, how about a game where the pokemon fight in real time combat, almost like WoW? xD

 

[Dr Super Good]

Because then it will no longer be the stratergy RPG that it has always been. . .

 

[MySpaceBarBroke]

I never said it was to be a direct part of the series. Just a spinoff. Also, your ideas would change "what it has always been" dramatically anyhow.

 

[Dr Super Good]

But would keep it as an RPG stratergy game, having it as real time would make it turn into thoes hotkey hoggers or fast clicking games, trying to utilize time to 100% unless you have some kind of buffer system, also it would make it about 8* harder to make.

My ideas took old aspects, and improved on them, also the over all time from 5-100 would be longer, + there would be pokemon reproduction to get max stated pokemon which would make good pokemon very time consuming. Money would also not "grow on trees" which means that it would actually be worth something and so you will never have enough of it.
