Good day, everyone. I am the Captain, even though the registration process doesn't think I'm worthy of capital letters. I am a fan of Ys, and I hope that I can slide into this community with a minimum of ripples.
Lessee, a bit about myself. I'm an avid gamer, if a rather impoverished one. My genre of choice is RPGs, and I have a taste for the lesser-known stuff. It was Hardcore gaming 101 that reminded me of my love of Ys III I had back when I was 11 or so (I'm 24 now :( ), and compelled me to rediscover not only this treasure, but to explore the series further. Getting my hands of Ys VI confirmed this was a happy decision. Since then, I've also played Ys I and II Complete or Eternal or whatever the Windows 2000 version was that Nightwolfe made the excellent translation patchs for, and Mask of the Sun presently (Just got to the Iris Tower).
Anyways, I'm also something of a writer, trying to break into the field professionally; though writer's block isn't being my friend in that regard. I'm also an internet bum in general.
If you've gotten this far, good job! You have more endurance than I might have in your position! In closing, I hope that I can fit in without too many people wanting to test if I can be set on fire.
Also: A question: Is emulation of stuff never released in the US a forbidden topic here. I admit I do have my eye on sampling Dawn of Ys one of these days.

Hello captain (you can change your username and add capitals or whatever you want to do in your profile)! Hope you'll enjoy it here! Emulation is not a forbidden topic at all -- discussing where to actually get ahold of games and stuff isn't allowed though. I highly recommend YsV for Super Famicom, by the way. I just recently started playing it again and it really has to be my favorite in the series. It is a true gem. Anyway, have fun here!

I have dodged banning thus far! Hooray!
ince emulation isn't forbidden, does anyone use the Hu-Go! emulator? I recently obtained it to play a rom of Dawn of Ys I've found, but I am having difficulty making the bloody thing work. Namely, I'm not sure how it is supposed to work; not much luck in finding good instructions for stupid people.
I swear this isn't the only reason I came here ;_;

Sorry, not familiar with Hu-Go -- but Magic Engine works fine.
By the way -- I like what your signature says. I put a video camera in front of my computer screen and it recorded that "other" thing. Don't worry, I won't tell anybody.
