I am creating a game system by hooking up a cd-r player with a dvd-r player, video plug so it hooks up to the T.V, and a outlet plug that hooks up to the outlet...Of course. It will also have a high def Video card and it's controller is going to be red. The project is big. If anyone has ideas to make it better or has comments about it please post. Also the cd-r player will have a special scan with it so if someone wants there game to be for it please tell me via email. The project shouldn't be done for 3 months, one for making, one for testing, and another for finalizing. No one ask when it will be done.

When will it be done?

Okay, I'll be serious. Here's my comment. I really don't think this will work, unless you know almost all there is to know about building your own games system, and I don't think you do, this won't get anywhere at any speed. You'd have much more fun making games in darkbasic.

Ofcourse I could be completely wrong, if that's the case then feel free to point and laugh.

I can understand why these people would want to build their own game systems - but I can't understand as to why they think we'd care.

Don't skimp on that vital step! Make sure to research all possible shades of red before deciding on which hue of red.

I'd say a pink controller should be hot.

I'd love a pink controller with polkadots! My god I'm good, I should apply for a job at Apple.

You want a shell front-end, first make it run Linux with a half-decent copy of WINE (so it can emulate Windows programs).

Then we'll talk.
