  • 1-31-98 Oooh Aaaah
    Animated the logo, big whoop.
  • 1-29-98 Let it snow...
    Sorry for the lack of update, but I've been snowed in for a while, with no access to the internet. Links on the utility pages have been fixed and many utilities have been added. "We lost MegaByte"?!? I can't believe you guys.. ;) Well, I'm glad you've kept the site alive.
  • 1-28-98 Deezer, reporting:
    Netside added some WarCraft ][ levels. I should have some Genecyst save files up sometime in the next few days.
  • 1-27-98 Netside doing news now:
    I helped Engset yesterday by uploading 200+ megs of patches.. then to find out that the news section will be no more. Info is hard to find for patches.. therefore it will not be updated. Other updates in various sections... nothing too huge.
  • 1-26-98 Hello this is Netsurf taking over the news:
    I have finished the addons page. Though we have very little, we expect more in the near future. The patches page has been finished thanks to Engset. I believe there are more patches coming.
  • 1-24-98 Deezer, reporting:
    Engset started the Patches archive, and Netside has added more levels and demos to the PC Games section.
  • 1-20-98 Houston, we have a problem
    Well I lost my i-net connex today. I will continue to update this site, and so will the others, but my sections will not be updated very much beyond what is already on my computer, or what the others can send me in e-mail. The other sections will still continue progress while I am offline. Still, I have uploaded six emulator utility indices.
  • 1-19-98 Even More SaveGames
    Deezer has uploaded tons of NESticle save games.
  • 1-18-98 Where?
    Minor additions in various sections, nothing to get excited over.
  • 1-17-98 HTS
    I'm learning HTMLscript, so we now have a local counter.
  • 1-16-98 More SaveGames
    A ton of Super Mario Bros. 3 SaveGames are up thanx to Deezer. Updates will not be as big for a while, as I am trying to straighten out stuff as I may lose my i-net connex soon. RaG has started the Video Game Guide section. He has lots of N64 FAQs up now.
  • 1-15-98 Reviews
    Game reviews have been redesigned, and now include rating meters. "Super Mario Bros. 2: Japanese" review is up. Wow, 450 hits in two weeks, that's great!

    Deezer has started cataloging the SaveGames, the NES and SNES pages are up. "Mario Bros." review is up. The NES Utility page is up, and the index for all archives have been updated.
  • 1-12-98 Updates
    z26 and SNEmul have been updated. What's going on with these measly updates you ask? I've got exams today and tomorrow, so I'm a bit busy, but expect a big update soon!
  • 1-11-98 PC Games update
    TONS of Quake and Descent II levels are up in the PC Games section. Credits page is also up.

    TI and HP emulators are up, nine pages (20 calculators) of them. Also eight other emulator pages are up.

    Six more emulator pages are up along with a few emu updates. A "Super Mario Bros." game review is also up.
  • 1-8-98 Again, I say emus
    Six more emulator pages are up, and a new index showing over fifty more systems that I have to do pages for. I fixed a couple of bad links, and will soon add a logo by all recommended emulators. I'd get more up, but there is severe lightning out and I don't want to have my computer fried. 200 hits in a week.. we're off to a good start.
  • 1-7-98 Emus and....... stuff
    Three more emulator pages are up, the long awaited Nintendo systems. I've updated some of the current emu pages. Also Netside added some more downloads to the PC Games section.
  • 1-6-98 Even more emus
    I didn't have much time to work on the site today, as I was fixing my friend's computer, and school started back yesterday, with exams next monday and tuesday. I've gotten three emulator pages up, and it now seems that I have about sixty (!) more systems to do, once I saw all of the links from the EMU News Service.
  • 1-5-98 More emus
    There are seven new emulator pages up and also utility updates, but they won't be accessible for a while.
