Mad Genius Brings Flappy Bird Back From the Dead on Dreamcast Memory Card. As Sega’s Hail Mary pass on hardware, the Dreamcast wasn’t exactly the miracle the company prayed for.

The resolutely single Don has just been dumped by his latest lover, Sherry. Don yet again resigns himself to being alone and left to his own devices. Instead, he is.
But the long- dead console still has a massive fanbase, as a clever hacker who managed to port the infinitely addictive Flappy Bird to the Dreamcast’s interactive memory card recently demonstrated. The VMU, or Visual Memory Unit, was an oversized memory card that plugged into the Dreamcast’s controllers to store game data, or serve as a second- screen for some games using its built- in monochrome LCD display. The VMU also featured basic controls, and could be used as a portable gaming device if you refused to just buy a Game Boy.

Dmitry Grinberg’s hack of the Dreamcast VMU includes developing an ARM chip emulator for the tiny, under- powered gaming device, allowing it to run the (infamously discontinued) mobile game Flappy Bird—very, very slowly. You might assume the game would be much easier running in slow motion, but the controls are equally unresponsive, as this video of Grinberg failing to get past the first obstacle demonstrates. If it were solely up to their creators, both the Dreamcast and Flappy Bird would have likely gone the way of the dinosaurs. But fans, like life, always find a way.[You. Tube via Hackaday].
Ubisoft Removes Fourth Of July Fireworks From Watch Dogs 2 After 'Noise Complaints'A temporary Independence Day celebration in Watch Dogs 2 was suspended early on July 4 because it was enraging too many people who still play Ubisoft’s late 2. The fireworks had been added to the game as part of the 1. They were set to erupt during the game’s night cycles from June 2. July 1. 0. On Twitter, they were described by gamers as “completely obnoxious,” “fucking annoying” and “too frequent, too long and too loud.” Someone else said they were scaring their dog. Watch Hickok Online here. Initially, Ubisoft defended the fireworks.
Three days ago, in reply to a forum thread titled “Annoying Fireworks At night missions,” a Ubisoft community representative noted: “While you may find them loud in- game, they are really loud in real life too! The sound carries over the water and you can hear them all over the Bay!”By yesterday, Ubisoft yielded. On Reddit, a company rep noted: “The people have spoken and we have carried out their will! There was an annoying bug that snuck into our Independence Day Event that made the sound effects from the fireworks noticeable from everywhere on the map. They have been turned off as to avoid any further noise complaints.”Ubisoft: “It’s not possible to rush a fix for this so we made a tough choice to remove them.
The heart says no but the ear drums say yes.”When Tweeting the news, the official Watch Dogs 2 Twitter account cc’d the outlet Ars Technica, likely because of the publication’s Tuesday morning story headlined “Ubisoft wishes Watch Dogs 2 players a terrible Fourth of July.”Of course, as fans of whatever pop song you hate can tell you that even the most cacophonous noise has its fans. Sure enough, a Watch Dogs 2 player on the game’s subreddit lamented the firework deletion. The Ubi rep replied: “We liked them too! But when you’re playing the game at night for hours and can’t escape the popping no matter where you are, that’s not a positive experience for the player. It’s not possible to rush a fix for this so we made a tough choice to remove them.
The heart says no but the ear drums say yes.”.
