PCE Works- Dracula X - Standard Edition - New Release

[Psycho Punch]

Time to release a new batch of $5 repros on PCEFX.com, looks like the previous one is fading from collective conciousness

People are dumb for paying that much on a repro, period. There's nothing you can say to convince me that something that costs $10 per unit at the VERY WORST CASE is worth $60+

[BlueBMW]

Just to counter this absurdity...

Since I'm studying for finals right now here's a little physics problem.  First person to solve it correctly who also has at least 30 posts here and isn't a known douchebag gets a free disc only toby repro of Rondo of Blood English translation.  I'll even mail it for free to anywhere, even worldwide.

Oh and if you're really fancy, write out your calculation, take a picture and post it here.

And when you read the problem be sure to read it in my professor's Russian accent for maximum effect.

[SignOfZeta]

Fuck, flexing that fan muscle a little too conspicuously?

Now I wish I had some of those just for the economic hand grenade effect. I do have a couple of Ginga Fukei left though so I'll be able to do it again someday.

[mickcris]

Appologies for derailing the thread.  It appears to be back on track now.

[seieienbu]

Answer seems to be .09nm, or E.  Had to break out the old college physics book to find the equation to solve.

[BlueBMW]

Well played!  0.09 it is!  Shoot me a pm with a an address to send the disc to!

[seieienbu]

That's the thing.  I already have one and it works fine so by sending you my address I feel as though I'd be breaking the douchebag clause.  It seems we're at an impasse.

[Johnpv]

I was going to guess 42, does that count for anything?

[NightWolve]

I made the mistake of minoring in Physics when all I wanted to study was Computer Science, yep, those were some fun times.

[Otaking]

I was going to guess 69, does that count for anything?

[NightWolve]

Huh ?

[Otaking]

Keh?

[BlueBMW]

Nah that doesn't make you a douchebag.   If you need hints on that see Nullify/Nulltard.  But seriously if you've already got one and you know someone else who wants one I can send it elsewhere too.

It looks like Blue found an innovative way for others to do his homework for him!

Now there is a novel approach to getting people to do your homework for you!

School isn't just about learning the material its about "problem solving" ;)

My legit copy of Rondo cost $88 shipped in Summer 2013... from a seller on Nintendo Age.

Physics was the only science class I actually liked. Biology, chemistry, and geology were boring.

[BlueBMW]

I am absolutely fascinated by physics and chemistry.  Probably a good thing since the next two years of classes are basically applied advanced chemistry and physics.

What I learned in chemistry: ammonia sulphide stinks

I agree, but for me it was a course that kicked my ass cause I landed a professor that took his classes seriously: every week quiz, the usual midterm/final format, and the lab course would take up the remainder of my Fridays and the weekend... I was at my university *every day* for the *whole day* for ~2 years when I just wanted to learn programming and thought the requirement of a minor would just be filler...

I suspect I should've instead minored in math as that is considered a more useful complement to programming/computer science, but like you, I thought I would enjoy physics more...it didn't work out that way given the stress/work level it brought down upon me though...

Physics had the bonus of actually providing a reason for doing equations and math problems. You were actually solving a problem, not some abstract thought problem to find a number solution.

[seieienbu]

I wasn't sure what I wanted to study when I started college so I took a lot of Chemistry, Physics, Math, and Compsci classes until I figured out what I wanted.  I got a bit past intro classes and learned some stuff that I figured was likely never going to be useful but still had a reasonably good time learning.  Some time passed and I made some (very) indie games, and the physics and math studies both paid off very well.  I had a good understanding of rotational matrices and was able to calculate casted shadows from dot products and meanwhile wrote a pretty reasonable physics engine.  All in all I finally felt like the stuff I'd studied for really no reason and never used paid off.

...Chemistry though?  I loved it to death but I've yet to find much of a use for it.

[Dangeross]

I was going to try and snag copies when I first registered all the way back in . . . December, but I didn't even have a CD unit or think I would ever come across one in my price range. I'm new to the PCengine scene and mostly lurk.

I played Rondo of Blood on an emulator and it blew me away, the sound and music were top notch, I didn't realize PCengine Duo played copied games and I thought those repros were some specially done discs and that's why they worked. I just got my PC Duo yesterday that I was able to get on Ebay for a steal at $130 but I can't see myself ever owning a legit copy of RoB because of cost and also I'm worried about getting scammed with a copy.

I do wish I had an alternative as I can make a copy and chicken scratch the name in felt marker until I find a legit copy but a professional looking repro of any kind would sure look a lot nicer.

Aha, ok, I didn't know. That might explain why a few members had the Britney Spears avatar.

P.S Fuck Tobias

Honestly - buying a legit copy is the way to go as long as you don't overpay...

The game will still be "worth" what you paid when you don't want it any more and you will be able to get your money back...

[geise]

Why you'd ever want to sell it I have no idea.

[wildfruit]

I got tobias to send me one for free. I'm not keen, it seems to take a LOT longer to load than my own burn. Wonder if anyone else experiences the same issue.

[CrackTiger]

Some people have said that they had various issues with Tobias' English copies.

[Keith Courage]

I find this argument a bit silly.  Everybody seems to love turbokon's new bootlegs but hates tobias'.  The same argument can be had with those.  You could just put the game on an everdrive instead of buying a "repro" hucard.  If someone wants to pay a bit extra for box art and such, I dont see a problem with it.  I think its dumb, but some people like that.  Yeah, the profit margin is probably a lot higher on Tobias' boots, as they are CDs and cost a bit more, but what is the acceptable profit margin before everyone starts complaining?

I agree with this.
