Nintendo Gaming / RE:GBA:SP Splurge

« on: December 26, 2003, 09:00:15 PM »

i just played right away when i got it out of my box.
did about 3 hours until the battery gave up on me while i was playing Megaman.exe battle network 2.
and i played long without saving i really felt like a fool when the screen just went out.
but just like jarob said, its fully charged in about 3 hours and you can play like 8-10 hours with the lights on.
( i dont know about you guys but i never play with the lights out )
and dont worry about over charging when its charging you'll see a orange light and when its done charging the orange light will go out.
and yes you did pick up a lot of good games, those games are going to keep you busy for a llllllllllllooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg time!!!!!

General Gaming / RE:Pro Logic II on Gamecube FAQ

hi um before i start with my problem let me discribe what i got.

- TV with a RGB-scart port ( the next best thing besides component and HD, and no S-video is not better trust me )
- a cube ( figures )
- an official nintendo RGB-scart cable
and last but not least
- a Creative Inspire GD580 5.1 ( not much Watt but it comes with an seperate encoder and it gives good quality sound )

as you can see i dont have a TV that supports component nor HD ( incase you wondering, HD means High Deffinition ), so in this case i use a RGB-scart cable to get the best screen quality out of my consoles.
now...
when i play with my xbox or ps2 i just hook up my fiber optical cable and i got my 5.1 DD sound, now here is the problem sinds the NGC doesnt support optical. ( the panasonic game-Q did have a optical port so at first i got confused with people selling "fiber optical for ya NGC" )
so that leaves me with the analog stereo channels, i ve learned that DPL2 seperates the incoming signal into 5 seperate channels which kinda figures why there wasnt a need for an optical port.
when i play with my RGB-scart cable there is no seperate Left and Right sound plug like the one that comes with your system instead the SCART got everything integrated in one plug.
so i think most of you are wondering "why didnt you get a S-video cable instead?" well here's my answer if some of you didnt know.

The S-video over expose the color red so when things are red it turns into orange, the diffrents between a S-video and a RGB-scart lies in the output-signal.
S-video output-signal is like a combined video image like the standard cable but better quality, but the RGB-scart cable output-signal has a Seperate Red, Green and Blue channel which gives it a better and more controlled screen quality.
the RGB-scart is simular to the Component.
- they both got seperate RGB signals
the diffrence is
- SCART is an analog signal while Component is digital.

sinds i got my setup sorted out heres my question.
ive seen components cable with a seperate L en R sound plugs, is it possible to just use the components L en R sound while using my RGB-scart cable?
please help i just want too fully utillize my cube , and playing with 5.1 sound DOES make a diffrence.
