Actually,  Peter,  I try to post as often as allowed.  The ony thing is, I am on
the road 5 out of 7 days a week and when I get home I have 200+ messages from my
2 mailing lists to answer,  so I am very selective as to which ones I answer.
The truth is,  not many conversations that take place here are all that
important.  You'll notice though when someone does post a meaningful ( to me )
message,  I answer it ASAP!  Maybe others are like me.  Who knows?

What you can do to find out who posts the most is to sort your mail by
name. Just to let you know, unless you delete your mail every single day.

Subject: [N64] Re: Secret of Mana - what happened?

   Did someone mention Secret of Mana? Does anyone know why this
excellent rpg did not become a series of sequels, much like FF?  It
would be nice to see a coop with this kind of quality come to N64.
  While I'm dreaming, it would be nice to see Square release Secet of
Mana 64 or maybe Chronotrigger 64. Heck, I'm still hoping Nintendo will
do a Metroid 64.
  There are so many great old titles that could be ported over to the
N64 that seem to have been forgotten along the way.  So much untapped
potential.

Nintendo better act fast.  The biggest let down i had was when i heard

Agreed!  The lose of Dragon Quest 7 was as big, if not more, than the lose of
Final Fantasy 7.  Dragon Warrior 1 was the RPG I lost my "virginity" to.
hehe  I have always felt that the Dragon Warrior (Dragon Quest) series was
the "elite" RPG series out there.  Hell,  I even named my then dog, Edrick!

Actually, nowhere.  I just never really pay attention to those stuff
back in the NES days.  Now I wonder, why do Rare do all the programming
and everyone else just publishes the games for Rare?  Am I taking this
wrong???  Look everyone, sorry if I annoy you with these type of emails,
if you want me off the list, just let me know.  I don't mind talking to
ya'll but if you think I should leave, let me know.

Wrong. Rare have been going for *years*. They made a whole ton of games for
the NES, such as RC Pro Am, Wizars & Warriors etc. Before that, they made
games for the ZX Spectrum computer - a huge big hit in the UK & Europe.
They were one of the 'original' developers in the UK, since around 1982/83.
Previously known as Ultimate Play The Game, responsible for games like
"Jetpac", "Psssst!", "Atic Atac", "Knightlore". A seminal company.

Have a look at the "World of Spectrum" online for more info.

It may be *published* my Acclaim, it doesn't mean they *developed* it. Why
is it so many people on this list & other lists can't tell the difference
between a developer & a publisher?

I just heard from a shop that Banjo-Kazooie won't be available in the UK
till July 31.
After all the talk on this list, I don't think I can take it.

Its a bit crap I'll admit but this one is a different kettle of fish from many
other soft Cos releases (1080 snowboarding any one?).
I have it on good authourity that RARE start the PAL conversions before the
ntsc version as finished coding and they always do a good job of it. Even
though it has been sitting on a shelf for some months now I don't think we
will see such a good conversion of 1080.

It does annoy me that English soft Cos do not produce PAL first but at the
end of the day you have to sell a product where the market is biggest. I would
rather have to wait appx a month for a decent game than have a company do little
or no conversion leaving large borders, squashed gfx and slowdown and still
expecting your British punter to shell out 60 quid for it. Now that is taking
the piss.

The new N64 libs now support full-screen video modes for PAL systems,
so PAL conversions shouldn't be squashed for much longer.
