Merry Christmas
I wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. A gift from me to everyone else, the Viz price of all games is 50% off! I know it's not Christmas quite yet but I figured I'd let everyone know of all these offers ahead of time so everyone knows about them before Christmas.
7 Days of Vizzed Christmas You'll all be rewarded a nice Christmas gift when you come to the site on Christmas (server time). Additionally, you'll be rewarded a random amount of Viz for each day that you come to vizzed from the 25th until the end of the year, the 'Vizzed 7 Days of Christmas'. Christmas Games in the Retro Game Room I put together a list of about 30 Christmas games that can be played in the RGR: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=34124 Earn an easy 1000 Viz I also put together a video highlighting 12 Christmas games (non hacked): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcbh8UIMMj8 I'll give you 1000 Viz for liking and commenting on the above youtube video. Let me know in the below thread once you've done this. Tell your friends about the site and earn lots of Viz From now until the end of the year, if you refer 10 people to the site, I'll give you 20,000 Viz on top of the 5000+ Viz that you'll automatically get for referring them. In other words, you'll earn 25,000+ Viz for referring 10 of your friends to the site. There's a ton of kids on Christmas break, a lot of them may be looking for something to do, why not introduce them to Vizzed? Once you've referred the users (and they've registered), let me know in the below thread. Any questions, comments or feedback? Or do you simply want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas? Do so in this thread: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=51689 |

Happy 8 Year Anniversary & 2012 Vizzed Awards
As of Today, 12-06-12, Vizzed Board is 8 years old!
This year on vizzed we've seen some of the biggest RGR Plugin updates! Sega CD, Netplay, Video Recording, Arcade/MAME and many other new systems and features. In 2013, Vizzed will focus on expanding the site in other directions. There will be a few more RGR Plugin updates but there's been just way too much money invested into the Plugin over the past year, well over $5000 and nearly $10,000 since the RGR Plugin launched. Of course the Retro Game Room will still stay alive and continue to have new games, features and content added to it but non-RGR features that you can expect to see in 2013 includes a Battle Arena, new Item Shop, Avatar Creator, Video Game Music, Flash Game Room and much more! You can find the awards and additional anniversary information here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=51039 |

Earn Viz = Record Videos, Subscribe, Double XP, Donate, etc
Getting low on Viz? Want some easy ways to earn it? Here's some offers going on now:
Doritos and Mountain Dew Double XP Codes = 1000+ Viz Do you have some Halo 4 Double XP codes? You can get the codes off the outside of your Doritos bags, from you Mountain Dew Caps or from inside your Mountain Dew 12 packs. More info here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=49783 Record Videos with RGR Plugin = Up to 50,000 Viz Since the latest Plugin supports video recording, you can record your gameplay videos and earn Viz. How easy is that? Basically you're earning Viz by doing what you already do - Playing games in the Retro Game Room. More info here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=49859 Rating & Subscribing to Vizzed = Up to 7,500 Viz Subscribe to vizzed on facebook, youtube, etc. You can earn a ton of Viz by doing various offers that take hardly any time to do. More info here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=31094 Recording Videos of Netplay Sessions = 5,000 - 25,000 Viz This is a little different than the other Video Recording offer since this one can't be done with the RGR Plugin, this one requires you to use an external video recording software since you gotta capture the entire Play window of the Netplay session. Because of that, this one pays out more Viz. More info here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=50192 Donating money to Vizzed = 10,000+ Viz Helping out the site financially is one of the best ways to help out, especially with the financial struggles vizzed has been going through. You can earn 10,000 Viz for each US $10 you donate. More info here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/donations.php Donating physical games to Vizzed Vizzed has been in the process of obtaining backup copies of RGR games for a while now, if you're interested in helping us accomplish this goal, PM me, Davideo7 a list of real games you'd be willing to donate and I'll respond with how much Viz I'll give you for donating those games. RGR Competitions = Up to 10,000 Viz per competition Every month Vizzed has monthly competitions which allow users to earn lots of Viz.

Netplay Available to Everyone - Limited Time
Netplay is available to everyone until January 1st. This means that for the time being, you don't need a Netplay item to create Netplay sessions and everyone has access to the Netplay chat room page.
I also have a new 'United States Limited' server which is a server dedicated to Netplay and should run better than the other 'United States' server. That server will only be available for about a month so take advantage. Want to earn 5000 Viz? Go here for more information: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=50192 Want to use your computer as a netplay server?

Fixes mednafen Audio delay This fixes the audio delay for Mednafen systems (and netplay), which includes: TG, SGFX, NGP, NGPC, AL, WS, WSC, SMS, GG, *SNES, *GBA, *NES, and *FDS. * These systems don't play in Mednafen by default but can be played using Mednafen If you have questions or feedback regarding this update, please post it here: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=50050 |

New RGR Plugin = Supports Video Recording, Sega CD and Fixes
RGR Plugin 1.94 is ready for download
Click Here to Download (Click Here for a Mirror Download) NOTE: No save files will be lost in upgrading. EDIT: I just updated the download links with 1.941 which fixes audio lag in Mednafen systems Video Recording This is the biggest feature in this plugin release and is a very commonly requested feature. You now have the ability to record gameplay videos using the RGR Plugin. The games record with little to no lag and the best thing is, it requires no video recording knowledge and no additional software. Go ahead and start recording some videos and upload them to youtube, just be sure to place a link to the rgr game page and than add that video to the rgr game page (to help increase your videos views and likes AND to help out vizzed). If you want to earn Viz by recording videos, scroll further down this post. The supported systems include: Nintendo, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Famicom Disk System, Game Gear, Sega Master System, Turbo Grafx, Atari Lynx, Wonderswan, Wonderswan Color, SuperGrafx, Neo Geo Pocket, Neo Geo Pocket Color and Super Nintendo (SNES requires that you play in Mednafen mode, link can be found at the top left of game window). Also note that Game Boy Advance games can now be played in Mednafen and the benefit of that is Mednafen has higher video recording capabilities (as far as emulation goes, the default VBA is usually best). Sega CD Fully Supported Even though Sega CD was added with the last plugin, it wasn't fully supported; this is why it was released in a beta state. Now it's all set and ready to be enjoyed. Various Fixes Various things have been fixed, one of them being the N64 Hi-Res Texture hack games. Want to earn up to 50,000 Viz from recording videos? Earn up to 1,000 Viz for every 10+ minute video you record. Go here for more information: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=49859 Your Donations Help As some of you know, vizzed has been in a financial struggle ever since Google took down the ads on vizzed months ago. We've been trying out other ad networks but haven't had any luck. If you enjoyed this update and would like to financially support future updates, please take this time to donate. Also keep in mind that server fees still need to be paid monthly so if you want to help us out with the bill, contact me or simply donate. If you have any questions, comments, feedback or compliments, please ask in this thread: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=49844 |

Game of Week & Day = Free Netplay
Normally you need to be either a powerlevel of at least 'Normal' user or have the Netplay/Laptop item in order to join netplay sessions and you need the Netplay/Laptop item in order to join sessions. I recently made it so that anyone can join and create Netplay sessions on the Game of Week and Game of Day games. Not all of the Game of Week/Day games will have multiplayer or support netplay but when they do, you might as well take advantage of it if you currently don't have access to netplay.
