Re: I think Nishi wants to see kick ass stuff!
Hey, Might be an idea to create a video, containing screen shots, information, and live action of various programs and games. If there's someone able and willing to create a semi-professional video presenting many European software, accompanied by English spoken text and ofcourse the original BGM's (a fitting remix, maybe?), this video can be presented to Nishi. Besides, many other MSX-users might be interested in obtaining a copy of this video. Oh, we've been quiet for about four years now, but please don't forget about Sargon-productions like Defender and Guide through Gameworld (especially #2). Sargon officially still exists, although we don't do much anymore lately.

show Nishi 'RubyJade' or 'EXOR', I'm of course the last to complain :-P Har har! :-) It's nice soft, but I would vote to show those, I guess YM *not* to show those... Yes, sorry. since it's not state of the art, but relatively simple games. That's why I said '*really*' :-) Allright. [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: And what about "Sonyc"? IMHO, one of the few games which takes full advantage of MSX2+ and TR possibilities. That is not a Dutch game.

Re: I think Nishi wants to see kick ass stuff!
What about Thunderbirds Are Go and findit, I'll bet you they don't have those games in Japan. True, but they are (sorry, I'm being honest!) not the state of the art MSX software in my honest opion. And besides, they can already be seen at your booth. [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: ] What do you think? Good idea. And lets add some MSX turbo R softs to the list as well (modplay, modedit, zoneterra) and such a cool music program like SME 3.0 too ;-) Hah! I forgot Turbo R soft. Indeed, Zone Terra is a very good example. The rest too of course. And lets not forget the very famous fastcopy program :-) Nah! Let's skip that one. It's nice, but not cool to show. Is there a turbo R on the fair? Or should I bring my own with me? This depends on how it will be organised... Another thing I forgot: MB Muzax 3!

[EMAIL PROTECTED] said: Nishi's gonna get a very busy day in Tilburg ;) That's why we need to select very carefully. He's not coming to Tilburg to eat out of his nose! Anne de Raad said: I think Nishi is more interested in hardware then in software, actually. Showing GFX9000/Moonsound/IDE interfaces/Slotexpanders etc. etc. is more interesting then showing Unknown Reality... Right. Then those should definately be shown. But to show the hardware, also software is needed. Any ideas for GFX9000? Maybe the best thing is to show Video9000 working with it, in combination with a camera... Moonsound: some cool demo/musicdisk? Suggestions? IDE: suggestions? Just run games from it? Slotexpanders: We could use one to connect all hardware mentioned above, including FM PAC, Music MOdule, etc. Eric Boon said: Dunno. Will depend largely on the target market Nishi has in mind for the MSneXt (-- look! a name proposal ;-P) If it should be come PDA-like thingie, I don't think a 8-slot slot expander or IDE interface is really interesting. (A firewire or USB i/f could be, though :-)) You have a point there. This triggered me to show the soft at first. But shwoing the developed hardware can give an impression of the Dutch MSX activities though. And I don't think that showing anyone software from a long past(5 years == eternity in the IT business) will impress anyone. OTOH, if someone *really* wants to Depends if the soft is impressive: it WILL run on a 15 year old MSX2, most of it! show Nishi 'RubyJade' or 'EXOR', I'm of course the last to complain :-P Har har! :-) It's nice soft, but I would vote to show those, since it's not state of the art, but relatively simple games. But maybe those are interessting to show too, they at least take a short time to show. :-) Ruud v/d Moosdijk said: From what I understood they want our ideas, not our soft/hardware. You can't hire a booth to show our ideas...no booth would be big enough. :) That's the idea for Sunday. But not for Saturday, as far as I know. Hmmm, still no reactions from the people accompanying Nishi or the organizers of Tilburg. IF something is to be organized, it shouldn't take too long to start, otherwise it's too late. Tilburg is in 2 1/2 weeks! Another thing: what can we do to attract more visitors to Tilburg? I guess Nishi can be used as a way to do this. We would need some attention from (local) newspapers, computer magazines, web news services or other media. Did someone think about this? Grtjs, Manuel PS: MSX 4 EVER! (Questions?

Re: I think Nishi wants to see kick ass stuff!
Hey guys! girlz :-) Sorry about that :) If Nishi comes to Tilburg, I guess he wants to see [kick ass, but old stuff] Yes, it's all old stuff. Unfortunately. But new stuff will be presented on Tilburg anyway. SOmeone should organize this! I think it's very important for him to get a good picture of the Dutch (ex-) MSX scene. What do you think? I think a certain someone called Manuel *just* volunteered :-) I'm not volunteering yet. I suggest the organizers of Tilburg (or the Dutch people who are accompanying the Japanese) should decide what is best. They know Nishi's program, so they can decide where and how (maybe even what). If they ask me to organise it, I will consider it. I'm not sure if I have the time though. It also depends on the things mentioned below. (Some options take more time to organize or to prepare!) It could help to let more than one person organise it. Any organiser would need: - your suggestions about things to show - cooperation of the authors (or copyrightholders) of the products: they should provide copy of the software, which will be returned of course - of course full cooperation of the organisers (but I already mentioned that), also meaning space to demonstrate (beamer? sound amplifier?)including the necessary hardware. I'm not hiring a booth. - The best thing would be to have the authors of the software showing things. They know the best what their stuff is capable of. (e.g. MST's Tracer is great, but I never use it, so I can't demonstrate it properly.) Any more ideas? An additional set of things that could be shown: IDE interface, Compass, Video9000, ...

Re: I think Nishi wants to see kick ass stuff!
If Nishi comes to Tilburg, I guess he wants to see some spectacular Dutch MSX stuff! Hummm... remember that japanese thinking is maybe a little different than european one. In the last Barcelona meeting I spoke a little with Yokoi about Compass. "It would be nice if ASCII or someone make compilers with the look of Compass!", I said. "Compass? What? Ah well, we will take a look to this program when someone translates it to japanese", was te answer. And about KPI Ball, that nice Pang clone, Yokoi said: "Well, this is in fact nothing new. It exists in other machines since long time ago. It would not have any success in Japan".

"It would be nice if ASCII or someone make compilers with the look of Compass!", I said. "Compass? What? Ah well, we will take a look to this program when someone translates it to japanese", was te answer. But we're now trying to impress Nishi. He can read English easily. And we do not want to suggest the soft should be put on the Japanese market immediately. And about KPI Ball, that nice Pang clone, Yokoi said: "Well, this is in It IS nice, indeed. fact nothing new. It exists in other machines since long time ago. It would not have any success in Japan". See above. It at least shows it's possible on MSX to make it and it could be successfully used in those PDAs or whatever Nishi wants to run MSX soft in.
