    Sorry for bumping an old thread, but I have a question and this seemed like the appropriate place to ask. I've been enjoying the great AMVs on the project page, and would like to see them in better quality. The first post of this thread promised a torrent with the HQ versions of the videos would be uploaded, but I can't seem to find anything else about this. Was this ever uploaded? And if not, why not? Or are they right in front of me and I'm just an idiot?

    There was no real interest, probably. You can get Phantasmagoriat's and mine through animemusicvideos.org:

    A question for GBA SP owners

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    The backlight consumes a lot of power.

    The fact that the gameboy either works fine or not at all pretty much rules out any problems with the gameboy itself. The charger could have a bad connection somewhere that cuts the power whenever it gets moved around too much. This happened with one of my old gameboy colour adaptors. If you moved around too much while the gameboy was only running with the adaptor, the power would cut out. I don't imagine it's too uncommon since gameboys get moved around a lot more than other consoles, and the wires tend to get worn out. You're probably best off getting a legitimate nintendo charger, new if possible.

    Thank you for sharing this. I'm so sick of this, I'll probably be getting a new system since I can't get a first-party charger otherwise. :tomatoface:

    Micro and SP share the same type of charger/battery, true?

    A question for GBA SP owners

    Recently, I bought a used GBA SP through an auctions site, without a charger. A week later I also bought a new third-party charger only to find out my new–old handheld doesn't work. When I plug it in, the red led gives only a flash and when I turn on the system it works for a second and dies. If I remove the battery and play it only with the charger (now this is really wierd) it gives me about 30 seconds of play time (at first it gave me almost 2 minutes) and then dies. It doesn't work again unless I let it sleep for few hours (without the battery only) and then 30 secs again.

    What could be the culprit of this? Is it the battery, the charger or the whole system? The owner actually says I must get a first-party charger in order for everything to function properly. Is that true or is he just messing with me?

    Beatdrop -- 'Revolution' Album Release (Free Download [Not anymore! Sorry.])

    Wow. I've been listening to this for quite some time. After so many repeats, here are my thoughts. Please note that this is not a review by any means.

    The intro is sick. When The Collapse first started playing, I knew this was going to be one hell of a ride. Revolution is very ambitious; It further strengthens already strong first impressions. Burn Out is cool. I'm not a fan of the effects processing on the vocals though. Flash is pretty simple, and there lies it's strengh - it lends itself to dancefloor quite well. Get Down follows the similar pattern but it's much more elaborate. Both Flash and Get Down seem to be very DDR-friendly tracks. Minutes to Seconds is my least favorite. Everything kind of just rubbed me the wrong way here, vocals primarily. This is also the only track on the album I regularly skip.

    Heetseeker is an old favorite of mine. Now this one caught me off-guard. I didn't expect this flavor of trance, much less to be this intense and deep; I was shocked at how clean and polished everything sounded. It feels like this one just came out naturally. Blood Inside I also remember hearing earlier but it didn't impress me at the time. It was when I first went through the whole album that I realized how good the instrument choices were. This one's a grower definitely, and also one of the more danceable tracks on the album. Air is pretty nice and relaxing, one of the tracks that caught my attention on the very first listen.

    This Isn't Happening bored me at first which made me skip it a few times, but later on proved to be extremely catchy. A grower. The Return of Supernovatomic...now this is where I...well, cringed. :) It's a pretty good track but the vocals sound really cheesy (even more so than on Burn Out)...kinda like the German 90's sound (Scooter), little of which I can stand. But otherwise, I really like the beat and especially the melodies on this one. Revolt and Praxis are both huge. Revolt especially gives me chills. Oh, and finaly some guitars on Praxis. Thumbs up.

    Though Everything May Fade Away is my absolute favorite! It's just mindblowing. I'm so impressed with this track, I consider it my #1 favorite Beatdrop song (followed closely by Afterburner). As for Seek High + Low, I like this chiptune sounding style a lot. I seemed to dig the track at first, but it didn't hold my attention for too long. I like when artists leave the best for last, so in that respect this one is a little bit dissapointing (but not bad).

    Overall, this is nothing short of amazing. Thank you so much for putting this out for free! Your music has become very dear to me.
