Can you get a Gba action replay?
of course. the action reploay for gba is the gameshark
No. You are allotted 2 weapons in every Level of Zombies. And up until recently (Treyarch patched the crap out of this), you were able to have every weapon in the box. But, with your 2 weapons, you can only Upgrade each weapon once. Each time you Upgrade a weapon, it costs you 5,000 points. The best weapon to Upgrade to get you far in Zombies (this is based on the Zombie map "Der Riese") is the Galil and the Hk-21 (also the RPK isn't so bad). If you are playing with some friends, it isn't a bad idea to upgrade the wonderwaffle either. Once everyone starts running out of ammo, start teleporting to get a Max Ammo and when you are in a pickle, the Wonderwaffle can take out 20-35 zombies at a time and you don't hardly have to aim with it. I hope I answered your question to the fullest. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

You can upgrade as many weapons as you want in a single game but you can only have 2 weapons at once. Spiderbite from NextGenTactics pack a punched 15 weapons in a single game. But you can't upgrade an upgraded weapon.

For Xbox 360 how do you burn a video game onto a playable game disc?
Hey, TensuZanpakto XXIII here.
Since Xbox 360 IS a Microsoft product it should be able to play ripped games. When you rip a game make sure its the correct file extension for most games. The way you can find out is by Google or popping in an Xbox game in your computer and looking at the files in Windows Explorer.
Remember to include any and all video and sound files that are also in the correct folders. Most torrents will give you directions, or the comments of the torrent will reveal them.
THE MOST CRUCIAL PART OF ALL: remember to burn the CD to be playable on PC/DVD. If you wind up accidentally burning the CD in the form of an audio disc, it will be unplayable on the Xbox.
Note this though. Most Xbox games are made so that rips are near impossible. If you have a ripped game, then its most likely that updates for it will be absent because of the falsified code within the game's internal registration since many people will have copies of that code. Therefore, it will probably only work as an offline game (meaning if you rip Halo 3, don't expect to be able to play online; if you can, consider yourself lucky).
If you have any other questions email me at adventauron@yahoo.com, or post a link to another WikiQuestion here.
How to repair scratched Xbox 360 disc?
www.skippydiscs.com repair laser burns on discs
24 hour turnaround upon receiving the discs
pay securely with paypal and returned safely by recorded delivery
-------------------------
this is what i did:
I went to gamestop after a game laser burned by the 360. I bought the game at a different store (target). Buy the same USED copy of the game (very important). AND buy the disc insurance (also important). Keep the receipt.
swap your broken copy, for the new copy, and return the broken copy to the gamestop for a full refund.2 days later (no later then 7), with reipt. At worst, you wont get 3 dollars back, but you will get all the money back, usually no questions asked.
^^^^^^^^^^^^
I'm pretty sure this is illegal.
What are the controls for the banjo kazooie rom on computer?
Not sure of all the controls. I'm still trying to figure them out for myself and was on the computer searching for them.
This is all that I know:
(On the left is the computer keys and the right is the corresponding N64 controls)
X= A (Jump)
C= B (Punch)
Z= Z
S= C (Not sure which one though)
Can you play GameCube on the x-box 360?
Oh, dude, no way! You can't play GameCube games on an Xbox 360. It's like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole - just not gonna happen. Each console has its own games and systems, so no crossover there.
An emulator is a program that basically reproduces the behaviour of the hardware of an old machine (ex : video cards, CPU, mainboard, RAM). People that program emulators have to first obtain some information about the console they want to emulate; for example : what are the operations performed by the CPU. How is the RAM divided ?
Emulation is a very a complicated process of an application (emulator) acting like (emulating) another platform/processor/computer/etc.
One commonly emulated platform is the video game console, including systems like the Nintendo Game Boy, Nintendo Entertainment System, Sony Playstation, Sega Genesis, NeoGeo Pocket Color to name a few, although, just about anything can be emulated, from computers, to calculators, to video game consoles. Even the computer used in the spacecraft for the Apollo space missions has been emulated.
The basic process of emulation looks something like this:
- Fetch the current instruction from memory (RAM).
- Interpret that instruction. (Interpreting is taking an instruction that is supposed to run on another platform and executing or doing the equivalent instruction(s) on the machine that is doing the emulating/running the emulator program.)
- Increment the emulated PC (program counter; a register that points to the currently executing instruction) the appropriate amount.
- (OPTIONAL) Allow the machine running the emulator program to sleep/rest or stop execution of the emulator for a certain amount of time to regulate frame rate (FPS; Frame Per Second) or the emulated platform's processor speed.
- (OPTIONAL) Do any other things that need to be done. (Draw an emulated screen, process emulated audio, etc.)
- Repeat the process.
Hopefully that makes some sense to the person who asked this question. Emulation is not the sort of thing that can be explained in detail to a non-programmer or non-techie.
If you want to write an emulator yourself, and feel you know enough to get started, then do the following:
- Get as much info on the system you're looking to emulate AS POSSIBLE! This is EXTREMELY important, otherwise you'll have no idea what to do in the next steps.
- Pick an appropriate programming language to use. Using a scripting language or a language/tool that is interpreted is probably not the best idea if you're looking to emulate a fast platform.
- Figure out how you're going to emulate registers, RAM, etc. One of the simplest ways of emulating RAM is creating a large array to put all the emulated RAM's contents in. Registers can be done in multiple ways, but my WIP GB emulator simply uses char variables, since one char is 8 bits (1 byte) in size, which is the size of most of the GB's registers. (The GB's 16-bit registers are emulated using shorts.)
- Start coding! Take it easy though. Make sure you're not making too many mistakes. Assuming you're emulating some kind of "complete" platform (a platform with everything need to run and function), emulation of the CPU and RAM is what you should focus on first. (Remember! Focus on accuracy and proper emulation first. You can speed things up later, when your emulator actually does something!)
- Debug. This is what's gonna make you want to shoot yourself. Emulators are going to require a ton of debugging.
- Repeat steps 4 and 5 many, many, many, many, many times.
As far as info, you should have several resources available to compare with and get info from. I use Google and Wikipedia to get my info. You might have to search for info for quite a while to get what you want. (I took about two days to find and bookmark enough info that I think I will need.)
You probably want to code your emulator in C/C++ or ASM. I know some people even code emulator in Java, although, don't expect an emulator in Java to run as fast as one in C/C++ or ASM.
If you want, you can look at a very basic version of my code for my WIP GameBoy emulator below (use as you please):
//This is all done in C++ using MinGW and Code::Blocks IDE
//Define our RAM, VRAM, registers, etc:
int InterpretInstruction();
char gb_a, gb_f; //Emulated registers A and F. Sometimes paired as one 16-bit register
char gb_b, gb_c; //More registers. Sometimes paired as one 16-bit register
char gb_d, gb_e; //...
char gb_h, gb_l; //...
short gb_pc; //Emulated Program Counter register (16-bit)
short gb_sp; //Emulated Stack Pointer register
char* gb_ram_main; //Emulated RAM
char* gb_ram_video; //Emulated Video RAM
char* gb_cart_rom; //Emulated contents of the ROM
char* gb_cart_ram; //Emulated RAM in some cartridges
int main ()
{
load_rom_data_bin();
gb_pc = 0x0100;
gb_pc_ = 0x0099;
gb_sp = 0x0000;
gb_ram_main = new char[ 8192 ];
gb_ram_video = new char[ 8192 ];
load_rom_into_ram();
while( true )
{
if( InterpretInstruction() == 0 ) //My interpreting function returns 0 on OK
{
//Nothing. PC incrementing is handled in InterpretInstruction()
}
else
{
exit(1); //Abort if there's an error.
}
}
return 0;
}
int InterpretInstruction()
{
/*
It is said that switch statements are inefficient for a matter like this, but it seems to depend. According to some sources, this only holds true for switches with a small number of cases, which will compile into a chain of if() ... else if() ... statements - whereas with larger numbers of conditions [100-200+] a switch will compile into a jump table, and thus be more efficient than avoiding switch statements.
*/
switch( gb_ram_main[ gb_pc ] )
{
case 0x00: //NOP instruction
{
gb_pc++;
return 0; //Everything went OK
break;
}
case 0xc3: //JMP instruction Jump to the 16-bit address following this instruction
{
gb_pc = Form_16_Bit_Address_Using_Two_Bytes_Ahead_Of_This_Instruction();
return 0;
break;
}
default: //ERROR!
{
return 1;
break;
}
}
}
What are the Advantages of math games?
Fun brain games are a way for children to learn different educational concepts, like math and reading, in a fun and engaging way. It reaches students who might struggle with a traditional classroom setting.
Why cant you get in games when playing modern warfare 2 for xbox 360?
If its online and it says you cannot then the server(game/match) is full. If its a private match then the host of the match set it to private. If it just takes long to load a game then I suggest you shut down any computer using the internet. My xbox lags when im on youtube,msn, etc...
On your DS card, on the very bottom, you'll see something like NTR-ARME-USA, or whatever. The above example is from an American version of Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time. The Game ID you're looking for most likely is just the middle part, i.e. the "ARME".
They're usually fun and very engaging. But it depends on what you like to play.
If you like fast strategy games then I wouldn't recommend it. They're something like
-----------------
l > Attack l
l Magic l
l Item l
l Flee l
l-----------------l
Then it will hit the enemy then it will subtract it from the enemies' hp until it dies. It's kind of a slow based stratagy thing.

What is the red light of death on the ps3?
Well its actually yellow when you turn it on it goes green blinks yellow and shuts off to red.
YLOD aka Yellow light of death.
Ps3 overheated and melted your CPU chips solder around it. Your CPU chip which is the brain of the PS3 melts Solder around it and creates a soldering bridge = when 2 different components become soldered as solid one. You can send it to Sony and they will fix it for you if its on warranty by saying fix im saying they will send you new one and you loose all the stuff from old ps3 you dont get your harddrive back so you just lost all safe files, trophies ect. if not on warranty its about 140$ or you can do it your self its not that hard it just takes time to take the ps3 apart to get to CPU to resolder the components. There is a guy that shows how to do it step by step on youtube. Guy name is Gilksy he does it all slow and step by step in 3 videos I sent my 1st ps3 in and payed money for it i sent me new one didnt give my old harddrive back lost everything and this one keeps freezing on me all the time. I did resolder my self to 2nd ps3 that my friend had issue with and it works like a charm
Hope this explains it, trust points greatly appreciated

What is a WEP Key on Nintendo wi-fi?
The WEP key is the encryption key of the wireless router itself, simply use the same key as your PC uses to connect to your wireless network.
If you don't have a wireless network, then you're actually trying to access a wi-fi network owned and paid for by someone else - if you don't know the WEP key, then clearly you should not be using them, they are protected and can only be used by whoever the owner allows. Either get your own wireless service, or go to a place that offers free wi-fi, like McDonalds' restaurants.
