Resident Evil: Game Boy Color - Released on the 4th of feb (2012)

[Chris' Boob]

Wow the author of the article is a complete dick, and it's even more surprising that Joystiq gives a **** since it's basically unknown, now if it was 1.5, I'd bet they'd keep their mouth shut.

FFS. I'm still going to donate when it gets closer to the end date.

Half a heart
Report

I couldn't agree more with this article. This game belongs in a museum. Once the ransom is met, how will the game be distributed? Certainly not through MegaUpload. Will Assemblergames be hosting the illegal ROM? That forum is very shady and is well known to have leaked other games. My friend has proof that the owner and certain moderators have Resident Evil 1.5 so I wouldn't be surprised if all of a sudden another ransom is put up.

I have email Capcom (or at least through the Capcom-Unity forum) to make sure Capcom was aware of this ransom. Will they care? We'll find out. Hopefully we will see that forum shut down for their illegal activity.)

What a fag this guy is. If he does not like RE GBC then dont play it. (why should he care its not like he will get compensation for reporting I am sure he wont even get thank you from Capcom) damn I hate people like that they are really on my nerves. If 1.5 pops up like this one and people (like this person) tries to report Capcom about it (I am 100 % sure that Capcom will care about RE 1.5) I am going to kill that person!

Btw fund has got larger $1,597.81
only $402.19 left

What do they hope to gain from reporting to Capcom? Special praise? Glee from attempted spite?

Since it's going in the right direction, I donated 5 bucks.

About Capcom, who seriously think they'd care about that. It's like people pissing themselves 3 years ago about Capcom being potentially aware of these kind of deals. They probably couldn't care less.

Why would they - it's free publicity to their series after all.

From Gradon:

Hi!

I'm a Network Moderator and Assistant in the Ask Capcom forums over at Capcom Unity, and saw the thread you guys mentioned a few posts up.

I thought I'd drop in and let you know that Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/Senior Vice President, responded here.

I completely support you guys and hope that you raise enough funds to release the prototype! IMO, it may have no monetary value to the company, but for the sake of preservation, it will be incredibly valuable to the community of worldwide Resi fans.

Good luck with everything! Will be checking in here more often

Awesome. And from the posts above this one, sounds like they couldn't care less (because of free publicity).

We're almost there!

So basically - he's a moderator.

Or in real terms "a nobody".

[Darkmoon]

Awww. You hurt my feelings, Stu.

Honestly, Capcom isn't likely to care. If it was a pre-release build of ORC or RE6, maybe, but not for a scrapped port of a game this old.

[Mr. Spencer]

You say moderator, I say shill.

Mind you, that description is not entirely accurate but it's the best I can come up with. Afterall, who wants moderators who will question their benefactors?

[Stu]

Awww. You hurt my feelings, Stu.

ha that honestly wasn't the intention despite our PMs - i meant in the grand scheme of things to Capcom.

[Darkmoon]

That's OK Stu. It's not like I have feelings anymore, years of being online having crushed the humanity from me one drip at a time.
