I'll have a dig later and see what I can find.

Cheers mate.

Done!

Just clocked that. Cheers!

Anyone got the Splinter Cell GC games kicking about?

If it’s any easier, are there any easy resources online where I could access this stuff and save you guys the hassle?

I keep thinking about getting one of those Pandora's box things with all the arcade games on it... but then I keep thinking about alternative ways to do it. I have for example a hacked Xbox and an arcade stick for it .. maybe I should just get a bigger hardrive for it and streamline things on it to make it fit that use more. Or get a small pc and an adaptor to use that xbox arcade stick or. I guess im not really sure I just keep seeing those sticks and then thinking am I wasting my time thinking about them.

I'm going to get round to building a mini bar-top cabinet for a friend at some point this year. I was thinking about doing a full size build but I'd spend more on materials then I would on the actual electronics and wiring. Plus I'm not convinced that it's footprint is suitable for most people.

I always think about the pre-built options but it's not as fun as doing it yourself. I'm just going to use a RP3.

I used to own a proper Jamma cabinet back during when I was married but my wife got abusive and I had to take our daughter and leave, I still have the PCB game boards out of it, but I had to leave the cabinet and monitor and everything behind because I just didnt have the room for it... I still really really miss the thing but yeah they take up a lot of room. I guess its me missing this that keeps making me look at other things like the pandoras and such.

So that, uh, drive...

How might one get in on that?

Locate Cheeky Devlin and use the phrase the "barn owl soars through the fields of wheat"... he'll know what you're looking for.

Just noticed all the n64 games are .z64. To run them on wii they need to be .n64.

Anyone got them in that format they could upload? Would be eternally grateful.

Is it not possible to change the .z64 to .n64? It works with some files.

Just change the extension? Not sure apparently theres a tool called Tool64, but it only seems to run on windows. I'm on a mac.

I found a tool on github, but again I think it's only for windows.

I assume you don't have Wine to run windows apps. I'll see if I can find anything for you in .n64 format.

For some reason I can't download individual files from the Drive on my laptop, it keeps saying I don't have authorisation to view the page. I can download full folders, though, and I can download everything just fine on my phone.

Any ideas why?

Are you using Chrome? Try using IE or Edge. Chrome seems to have issues downloading from Google Drive.

Yeah, Edge sorted it, thanks. Ridiculous that Google's own products won't work with each other!

While I'm pushing my luck, I don't suppose anyone could get hold of Crash Bash on the PS1?

Never mind. Installed Wine to run Tool64 and sorted them.

And now I’m getting told that file type is invalid. Aaaaarerghhhhhh!!

What are you trying to convert them to?

They were .z64 files. I was trying to convert them to .n64. As it turns out, both are actually supported by the emulator, yet it’s saying both are invalid rom types. Pain in the arse!
