(not counting Wii) with another set of cables and controls. Plus I feel leary about buying a dead system.

Ok, so you have a Wii dude? Ikaruga's on the Gamecube, which should work just fine on the Wii.

Dreamcast isn't dead yet (although they're finally stopping production of the gd roms in february) since there's 3 more titles coming out for it. But there's some real good games to be had there, so don't put off buying one just because of wirery mess. Gamers aren't gamers without mess.

How ya doing, buddy?

What controller?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah the controller is awful. One of the top japanese Ikaruga players plays the Dreamcast version with the official Dreamcast arcade stick, so you might like to check that out. Opens up great fun for arcade-perfect titles like Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Marvel vs. Capcom 2.

I still recommend picking up old gamecube titles, since they're probably the best thing for making good use of your new Wii. I know now I have mine, I'm hunting down old titles myself (well I'd not necessarily call them "old" exactly).

Also, if you could get Ikaruga for gamecube at $30, I'll take it. All the ones on ebay are going for $50ish or higher.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

My guess is that you have to build an iso in MagicISO and put the .cdi into it.

That's assuming chankast reads isos. Can't remember much about it since it's so terribly outdated and flawed.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

The difference is I said one of and you said they.

I can't find the article anymore, because japan has long forgotten about Ikaruga except for the pros. One of them said the Dreamcast version was identical to the arcade one, and it's good for practicing 4-2 when you aren't in the arcade (which is one of the hardest parts to comprehend ;_;). I saw them playing it with the Dreamcast stick.

I was speaking idiomatically.
