Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(

The gamebits are now in stock.

Send mail to the site if you are interested in a 3-way combo of a case, SD Gecko and Gamebit for $30 + shipping and I'll get a package deal listed for you in the color of your choice...

Or a case and Gamebit for $19.50.

Is there a VB cross compiler available? ;-)

You can't just let it go...

Well, I believe there may be a VB->C# translator since the 2 languages are functionally identical.  Then some rocket scientist like you can take that code and edit it to JAVA or C++.  :P

Anyway, I have a Wii reserved and for sale on www.gameparts.biz and will be adding Legend of Zelda tonight.  Be prepared to pay a few extra $$$.  I have another that I'll be putting on ebay the week before launch.

I may even consider putting my third Wii up for sale...  I can wait a few weeks to get it, I have way too many Gamecube games I still need to finish...

Woo, so is there a C# to VB converter as well? ;-)

-edit-

Apparently so - according to a quick google :-D

C-Sharpener , lol!

I still prefer VB syntax.  The discussion about E vs. C vs. VB syntax...  One of the arguments was about:

while (foo()) {bar()}

being shorter than

While foo()
     bar()
End While

my answer is:
1) programmers don't have to be speed-typists to be effective

2) we no longer only have 39141 bytes of free ram for BASIC programs

3) bar() is an ideal as in a strict sense and while/switch/if-then branching statements are 1 lone function that contains all the necessary code, but the reality it that they usually contain umpteen lines of code in the branches with more if-then (etc...) statements... so things get real messy and to me VB syntax just keeps it cleaner

from a business IT perspective, cleaner code; manageable code is preferred vs. whatever gets the job done the fastest

now back on topic:

I'd prefer:
Code: [Select]

while (foo()) {
  bar();
}

-or-

While foo()
  bar()
End While


However, I find braces more than adequate. The argument that C's terseness is related to memory requirements is utter rubbish btw ;-)

I've posted my Legend of Zelda pre-order on www.gameparts.biz , I don't believe there will be any additional shipping charge if it's purchased with the Wii system I have on there.
