Chao Garden for Windows...

The only thing I remember similar to this was the hack of the Chao Garden. There is a rom for it on Soniccology I think.

 

Yes, it does exist on Sonic Teams site, the game is called "Even if in ciao" according to bablefish......anyways, heres the link:

Never trust Babelfish, it's "Nakayoshi Chao" and means "Best Friend Chao".

 

CHAOS ARE CRAP. I spent like 5 hours on those stupid things for the 10 emblems in SA2...

What a freaking waste of time.

 

It's Chao, singular and plural

 

Thanks for your oppinionated input, Lostgame.

 

It's only opinionated because, like most nextgen stuff, I thought I'd give it a try. I just really hated it. I guess it's just, I'm a little ticked because I hate this nextgen stuff so much and it's the only thing people want to talk about on this forum. I prefer the pathetic theories that people used to come up with before the forum "shut down." At least then there was something to prove, and it was always about the classics. Now people seem to only be interested in hacking SA:DX, or talking about the crap that will be this new shadow game. Sega's ruining themselves with this crap, and I should be allowed to be opinionated when that happens.

 

Edit/
I am a retard, but I meant what I said before in that the first generations were Sonic 1,2,3. I wasn't considering the other ones because I wasn't thinking.

 

Would you call me opinionated if I said your mind couldn't come up with any more original ideas, that all your oldschool 2d thoughts were good, and that you are a stupid cunt who doubles as a (inflatable) sheep?

 

I actually liked the Chao quite a lot. I wish Sonic Team would bring them back.

 

Agree'd, they're cute. ^_^

 

Are you two blind? What the fuck do you think I have been doing for the past 3 months? HACKING THE OLD GAMES. It's going to be a while before hacking the old games goes out of style, and contrary to what you may believe, there is still a shitload of things to figure out in these games. The music is figured out, but it seems Crackers is the new territory we have yet to fully cover. Plus, there is Chaotix, and Spinball, and even Eraser...

Think before you speak dude. Things are still going strong.

 

The game in that site isn't for the PC, but for mobile phones. =\


And speaking of phone thingies... Rika, do you own that amazing card in your sig (and my avatar)? If so, could you please scan the back? I'm very curious to see what was in the other side of it.

 

No, but I believe it's currently on a certain Japanese auction site. That is, if you want to buy it.

Edit 2: Actually, that seller doesn't ship outside Japan. =/

 

Really, the card is a bit off. The earlier company to eventually become Sega was... well, here's a brief timeline:

1940: Standard Games was founded in Honolulu, Hawaii by Martin Bromely, Irving Bromberg, and James Humpert to provide coin-operated amusements for American servicemen on military bases.
1951: Bromely suggested that the company be move to Tokyo, Japan.
1952 May: "Service Games of Japan" was registered, what used to be Standard Games.
1954: Another American businessman David Rosen fell in love with Tokyo and established his own company, Rosen Enterprises, Inc., in Japan to export art. When the company imported coin-operated instant photo booths, it stumbled on a surprise hit: The booths were very popular in Japan. Business was booming, and Rosen Enterprises expanded by importing coin-operated electro-mechanical games.
1965: Rosen Enterprises and Service Games merged to become Sega Enterprises. Within a year, the new company released a submarine-simulator game called "Periscope" that became a smash-hit worldwide.

And that is the basic very early history of Sega (which although 65 years old, isn't quite as old as Nintendo, which was founded in 1889).

 

I think there was a small flash fangame at Sonic CulT that simulated a basic chao garden, but I believe that's it...
