    I hear alot about the M2 from time to time and people going crazy to get their hands on the development kits and prototypes of it.

    Btw are those kits actually playable... anyone find any prototype games to use.

    A lot of sites seem to talk about people having the kits (assmeblers included), but I've heard of some having playable games.... Any truth to this?

    any good media sites on it..

    Heck if there were at least 5 games playable on that thing. that'd make owning one pretty damn cool. I mean as cool as a SNES CD is... how much cooler would it be to have a unreleased game system and unreleased games that can only be played on that system...

    I know D2 was basically completed. Was it found?

    I have 2 demo disks for the M2. Might be two different versions of the same demo. Its possible it was an early stages pack in demo disk. I don't have an M2 so its hard to say whats on them.

    Would you consider ripping them to ISO?

    Then people with a M2 could see what was on them.

    A few people have expressed interest in buying these but they are MIA right now. As soon as they turn up I'll be sure to pass on what you have said and let whoever buys them handle it.

    That's pretty amazing that the FreeDO guy has these games....
    Makes me wish he make a M2 emulator and released those games.

    I mean those power crystal shots are amazing. If he has a working copy I'm impressed.

    PS:

    The thumbnail of this [​IMG] isn't linking to the enlarge version. This screen look particularilly interesting... do you think you could link it to a enlarged version?

    The Freedo guy and I once were negotiating to exchange one of my Revision H M2 dev boards (he told me his burned up) for copies of all his software/games on CD-R. He got spooked and negotiations fell through, but he told me he had those games up and working on an FZ-35 M2 unit, which would be great if it's true.

    Strange he'd get spooked...

    :p but, would you have released the games to the public. But, obviously you wouldn't have released the games if you'd got them, with you having to trade that dev board.

    Its a shame for u though. As having a M2 is one thing, but having games to play on it is a whole new ball game

    You guys need to talk to Andy over at VideoGameBible. He had a laptop with all kinds of files on it.
