Topics I've Started

  1. Screwed up Sonic 1 cart

    24 January 2009 - 02:36 PM

    A couple of days ago, I was looking through my games collection and I found a copy of Sonic 1 (MD) that I've had since I was a little kid. It hasn't worked in quite a while, but I always kept it because...well, I don't know why.

    When it was playable, back when I was around 8 or so, it started to screw up over time. I don't remember specifics but it used to have Illegal Instruction errors frequently. After a while, it started to get closer and closer to the beginning of the game, eventually creeping up to the Title screen, then to the 'SEGA' screen, then finally, nothing at all.

    The thing I don't get is, is that when I try it in my MD2, it shows the 'Produced by or under License by SEGA Enterprises LTD' screen, but nothing after that. Now...from what I remember, I always thought that for that screen to come up, there has to be valid data in the header of the ROM (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).

    So, It has me wondering what's going on in the cartridge. I've been tempted to get it dumped but I don't have my own dumper and getting the components to make my own around here has proved to be difficult. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what could be going wrong, or how I could get it dumped? (If it's even really worth it).
  2. Sonic Wild Fire - For Nintendo Wii

    In all the chaos of today's announcements we nearly forgot about Sega's latest announcement. Sega has confirmed today that Sonic Wild Fire is coming to the Wii, exclusively.

    Sonic's new adventure unfolds from a storybook of the classic tale, Arabian Nights, the last several pages from the book have gone missing, and it's up to Sonic to re-create the story. Sonic activates specific areas in the prismatic environment to pull off new tricks and stunts

    W...t...f? A storybook? what next?!
  3. Gameboy color found in Sonic pic.

    Sonic image at the SOA Press Release FTP

    I wouldn't have expected to see a Gameboy Color in that image. Does anyone know if that was a fan made image or something made in Sega? Sorry if this is old.
  4. Uh yeah...something really weird here

    25 September 2005 - 10:11 AM

    I was bored earlier so I tried some random hacking, so I decided to do what Mustapha said in this topic:

    http://forums.sonicretro.org/index.php?sho...t=0&#entry90463

    I finished it and all seemed well, so I sent it to another friend so he could try it out and stuff and he got it to do some pretty weird stuff. Some of the things might be common knowledge already. Anyways, could someone please explain what happened or what went wrong?

    Sorry if I posted this in the wrong forum.

    File includes:
    The ROM I hacked
    Some pictures
    And some savestates

  5. Misplaced Knuckles

    13 June 2005 - 03:16 PM

    Sorry for bringing this topic back (I read the rules before I did this and it seems ok) I made a topic a while ago about it and the I never found out why the "glitch" happened. I was wondering if anyone got any more info about it?
