The thing about "tweaking" the music is that the music code just does 8th notes in Ms. Pac-Man and in my original hack. El Destructo's version does 16th notes like the arcade version, but that means the sound data space is doubled. There were also other glitches in that hack. I'm sure it's doable... if there's enough space left in Nukey's hack for the extra data.

I'd get one of these too, if the new version is going to support the Vectrex.

I had a bug in one of the last releases of my version of the hack that had the wrong number of scanlines, so maybe it stems from that. Do other games work on the Harmony?

And every site kept its own copy of the archive, so you didn't have to worry about your thousands of posts disappearing one day because one sysadmin didn't realize backups were being made, or the site ran out of money.

I still keep a pay Usenet subscription, and read a number of non-binary groups (they're not all dead or overrun with spam, believe it or not) but I've made only one post in the last 5 years.

(Edit: just signed up for the vector forum. I see this is another one of those hosted forum sites that not only has the usual forum disadvantages of not allowing me to read them with my choice of reader, but instead of simply having a mobile stylesheet they want you to buy a 3 dollar phone app. I really, really miss Usenet, and mailing lists, and even Yahoo groups. But the alternative is to not hear about new vector developments unless someone happens to mention them on Atariage, so I signed up anyway.)

They do if they want new customers, not just the ones already waiting on fulfillment of months-old orders. I have more sympathy for them than I do Atarigrames, but "we're little guys catering to a small market" only goes so far when you make representations you can't fulfill.

Glad to have bought all the variations of their emulator products, but unless they make a compelling Android one someday, I think the DS version might well be the last.
