Hello everyone, I hope your days are going great. I wanted to know if anyone knows the requirements for a game system to be on here. I recently found out that the Playstation was added, because I have not been on here for a while so I'm a little behind. I'm trying to figure out if and when the Gamecube will be added to this site because, well, one of my favorite LOZ games are on this system. If anyone has any information on this subject, that would be great, or if you know how I can request getting it on here, that would be great also. Thank you for taking the time to read this, have a great day!!

Hello, the main requirement is that a game system should be old enough. To pin point when exactly is "old enough", here are a few lists to consider:

-The console isn't being supported by their own companies anymore (in terms of fixes, enhancements etc.).
-The company has stopped manufacturing the console.
-The company has stopped having new games for the console and the previous games aren't available in main retailer shops anymore (those shops with direct communication with the company and make deals about sales percentages, GameStop for example.)

To sum it up, if a gaming system doesn't bring profit to the console company anymore, then it's already considered old or retro and might have a chance on being added here on vizzed.

As for gamecube games, I think this thread might help you out specially the last post: https://www.vizzed.com/boards/thread.php?id=82588

asdren : Basically the requirements are to Davideo7's discretion since he pays physical money to the plugin developer. The most recent update thread is here:

RbG : Not only that, other things have to be taken into consideration regarding which systems are added aside from the ones already stated.

1. Is there a good enough emulator that WORKS and is OPEN SOURCE for the RGR plugin to use for that particular console.

2. Cost of development to add these systems and features to the plugin.

3. Server storage/bandwidth costs - Will the system generate enough new traffic to make the cost worth while for David to take the risk of hosting that system on the site.

Since these questions have been sufficiently answered, I'm going to close this thread. Feel free to PM me directly if you have further questions/comments regarding this matter.
