the issue is cartidge space and cost, neogeo cartidge were pretty big(100MB+) And those portable are just not feasible, maybe far in future when Digital distribution become a think, so sorry that will not be possible

yea but not all of them, I did a quick ROM check just be sure and metal slug 1 is 26 megabytes uncompressed and the later games get progressively bigger with metal slug 3 at 83 megabytes in fact most of the bigger games top out at the 85 megabytes count, but question can't cartridges have the games be compressed folder or is that pc operating thing? Because if they can they usually top out on 40 megabytes, you now just saying.

even if the system cant benefit from immediately from huge sized games cant it at least benefit on smaller ones mortal kombat 2 is a 16 megabyte rom game and in otl look at what people manage to create for the N64 in games the size of 20 megabytes here in otl

Based on the sheer number of good games, why do I get the feeling Crash Bandicoot is going to wind up flopping ITTL? :p

Interesting stuff on the game show front. Bob Barker dead one day after his 73rd birthday is indeed a shame...at least Ruprecht is a good choice for host. Nice to see Marc Summers getting some love too. Are the other Nickelodeon game shows roughly the same? I fondly remember Double Dare and Legends of the Hidden Temple as a kid.

I await the arrival of the future Pokemon overlords with bated breath. Given the turn toward more maturity in games, some of the anime's themes and some of the characters' Beta names could well stay the same. (Example: Gyarados was originally named "Skullkraken", which is such a badass name.)

Yeah, Double Dare and Legends Of The Hidden Temple are about the same ITTL. Figure It Out should be showing up soon and there might just be an original TTL game show appearing on Nick in the coming year....

I'll go ahead and say that some of the original 151 will have different names. When Pokemon launches in North America, more details will come out!

According to this pdf the tms34010 was made at least initially in the 1.8 µm process by 1997 when the Sega Dreamcast sh4 cpu came out with a .250 nm process and it became available to a large number of manufacturers shortly there on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiconductor_device_fabrication

I know that I have been blabbering about this cpu chip but it was the main chip that powered Midways best, Narc mortal kombat ect. In my opinion at least it would be dumb not to at least consider it for SNK future handheld.

And of course memory constraints and that, SNK kept supporting their neo geo till 2004 memory sizes be damned if the neo geo pocket had succeeded I would be surprised if they didn't stop making games for till 2010.

Does Showgirls exist ITTL? How are the careers of Jenny McCarthy or Adam Sandler doing?
Click to expand...

Showgirls exists and does about the same as IOTL, it's just as campy and it's a flop at the box office. Jenny McCarthy is still languishing on Playboy TV, she auditioned for the job of hosting the gameshow Singled Out, but got beaten by a young woman named Lyssa Fielding (remember that name) who currently hosts the show.

As for Adam Sandler, Billy Madison was a success, but instead of going on to do Happy Gilmore, he was offered a chance to audition for the role of Milla Jovavich's love interest in Barcode. His performance in the movie (as a semi-comic relief but also somewhat tragic character) was praised and he's currently being considered for some more dramatic roles in future films.

All except for Rosie O'Donnell hosting The Price is Right, Animorphs being butterflied away, and no Kenan & Kel...

The butterflies giveth and the butterfly take away, that is natural in Timelines, the worst would be the last, but still something that is how history works.

What about the movie Scream (it was released in late 1996).

I could see Randy being a video game fan (and Stu, also)...

Sega purchase of Bandia would make it the largest toy company in japan. Do think this may cause ninetendo to decide to start making non video game toys again or atleast start buying out a toy company. Maybe ninetdo could buy out tarrka in 2006 instead of tomy

No Digimon too. I loved Digimon. It was the show that tipped me off that cartoons could do character development and serious storytelling. I think it's probably the reason i'm so into shows like Avatar, Gravity Falls and Adventure Time today. I've talked about this before:

I watched Digimon Adventure, the first one not 02, and the show still conjures up a lot of memories for me. I think as a kid, it was the first animated show I saw that had character development and story arcs and all that. It was amazing and I can't wait till I can get around to watching Tamers. I never really saw the other seasons outside of 02.

But it bares repeating. Who knows, maybe TTL me is introduced by Sailor Moon or maybe even Phineas and Ferb!

And I thought the Adam Sandler vs. Bob Barker bit was spared since Bob Barker died way after Happy Gilmore's release. Shows what I know.

As for Jenny McCarthy, let her be a nobody, as she's part of the reason we've got anti-vaccine folks running amuck. Now if we can also do something regarding Andrew Wakefield, the man who claim to have found the autism/vaccine connection...

Depending on whether Sega tries to create a ersatz Digimon franchise to rival the Pokemon juggernaut. In my mind, depending on how this Sega NetLink goes, a potential attempt at a monster mmorpg for the Saturn?

Sega did make a pokemon ripoff Otl for the DS based off of thier trading card game Dinosaur king. Perhaps dinosaur king will be created early.Ps nivekhave you been checking your personal measses. Your repsoned the past few i have sent you
