Sega to Release USB Version of Saturn
Controller 07/03/2004 03:26 PM

Originally planned as just a bundle for a Japanese version of Puyo Pop Fever, heavy demand from fans has caused Sega to release a new PC and Mac compatible USB version of its semi-famous Sega Saturn controller. The controller is the original, pre-Nights version (read: no analog) and will now "match the pearly white of Macintosh products." Although there's no plans to release the $30 controller in the States, it's likely importers like Lik-Sang will sell it via their website -- preorders can be made at Sega Direct, but I don't know that they ship to the US.

It would be very, very nice if the console makers would start releasing USB versions of their existing controllers, with PC and Mac drivers, as well. I'd gladly pay $30 for a USB version of the PS2 controller instead of having to buy a third party breakout box that doesn't always work as intended.

Release Dates 02/01/2005 09:08 PM

GadgetMadness confirms the release date of WowWee's next set of Robots and I have to say I'm disappointed. While I'm not looking forward to paying $200 for a Robosapien V2, I'm most certainly not looking forward to waiting until December before I can get my hands on one. The RoboRaptor [pictured] will launch for $100 in August, which might sooth me, although I may wait to go cheap in October and get one of the ambiguously named Robotpets for $70 instead. Or I'll do what I did with the first Robosapien and get one for my brother, then steal it from him when I go home for the holidays.

Picking a Real World Release Dates

Picking a Real World Release Dates 11/12/2002 09:37 AM
I've worked in big software companies, teeny tiny small software companies and worked with software companies all over the globe. And one thing remains constant: we all screw up release dates with the regularity of snow at the North Pole. I have to think that a big part of it is that managers fail to take into account one simple thing:

I'm a person first. A worker second.

Motorola MPx and MPx220 Rumors,
Including Release Dates

Motorola MPx and MPx220 Rumors,
Including Release Dates 08/06/2004 11:51 AM

PhoneMag has a lot of information from a "trusted Asian carrier source" about Motorola's upcoming MPx and MPx220 smartphones, included (projected) release dates for September 27th for the MPx220, and November 30th for MPx, although the latter may be delayed until 2005. According to the source, Motorola is still working on the firmware and deciding how much ram should be in the model (initially they were talking about 32MB, which is almost preposterously low for a high-end model like this, but it's since been bumped to 48).

There are MPx prototypes out in the field, we know. How closely they will resemble actual, shipping model is yet to be seen.

Sega Neo Geo Controller for PS2

Sega Neo Geo Controller for PS2 12/29/2004 12:01 PM

For me, nothing beats a good D-pad and an analog thumbstick for gaming, but for the ultimate fighting game championships, it's hard to go wrong with a nice 8-way joystick. And while it's not my favorite stick from history (the metal-shod, Ghostbusters II NES Advantage probably is nearest to my heart), the Neo Geo controller certainly has a certain something, not the least of which is that it was the first home gaming console controller that had a proper joystick (Atari, et al not withstanding).

So all that's to say, Sega Logistics and SNK Playmore have teamed up to release a new version of the classic controller, called the 'Neo Geo Stick 2,' with 4 extra buttons to work with the Sony Playstation 2. It's a strange landscape, isn't it, with Sega releasing an SNK design on a Sony platform.

More Sega PC USB Controllers 12/28/2004 01:07 PM

Sega has released more USB controllers for PCs, available in a variety of new colors, including the always sassy pink. I've never been a Sega controller man, myself, preferring the SNES pad on the whole, but I think it's fantastic that companies continue to release controllers from years past, despite a wealth of conversion dongles that let you use the original units via USB. Why? Because I like to spend money. (Thanks, Rom!)

Dates on the web

Dates on the web 12/03/2003 09:45 PM

D. Keith Robinson writes about Using Dates For Featured Web Content. Keith's right, including a date with your content really is a no-brainer. I'll add an anecdote of my own. Several years ago I ran a popular news site for Team Fortress Classic, a team based online first person shooter game with a thriving clan scene. I was careful to include dates on every piece of content, but in my youthful naivety I neglected to include the year. The years rolled by and the content built up until I suddenly realised that I was no longer sure what year some of it was written in! The site has sadly now passed in to history but the lesson remains: the web moves faster than you might think, so omitting the year in your dates is a pretty dumb thing to do.

It's pretty obvious but I'll point out anyway that using dd/mm/yyyy or mm/dd/yyyy for dates on sites is a bad idea as well. Us crazy brits use the former, them crazy yanks use the latter and everyone ends up thoroughly confused about any written date before the 13th of the month. I personally like to use the full "4th December 2003" format, but when space is limited the least ambiguous format is ISO standard YYYY-MM-DD.

Speaking of tiny games, Tulip is releasing a mini Commodore 64 Direct-to-TV [right] which crams 30 different games into a single joystick. Included will be the Summer/Winter/World/California Games series, and the little sticks should be available in the second half of 2004 for around $45.

Even better, at least by 8 bits, is Sega's reissuing of the Mega Drive (Genesis to we Westerners) Play TV, which puts Sonic the Hedgehog (the first one, I'd guess), Golden AX, Kid Chameleon, and more. As Babelfish says about the Mega Drive rerelease, "The sea urchin you felt. Just hard one world is predominated the bosom oak?" The best thing about the Mega Drive is the tiny console they've added onto the power cord.
