Fix-It Felix, Jr. - Auction on Ebay

Pages: (1/8) > >>

Surgeville:

Hello All,

Is there an interest in pulling funds so we can win this auction?
It would be great to get this game emulated in MAME.

For more information, please follow this thread:

Thanks,
Scott

I don't think it'll be a MAME-type emulation, but rather an executable that could be run from a front end.

BadMouth:

It runs on a PC.  It won't be emulated at full speed anytime soon, but very well could be pirated.  ;)

If Disney is letting the machines escape into the wild now, it won't be long.
It will probably be floating around on the web in the next month depending on how much protection was built in.
Since it was more a promotional display, than commercial machine to be sold to operators, I'm guessing none.

EDIT: Way to implicate the BYOAC forum in offering the seller money for a pirated copy of the game.
       

ChadTower:


I will be surprised if it's a full game.  It's probably just a software mockup.


Surgeville:

@BadMouth  :)  Just to clarify, since you seemed to jump to conclusions on my discussion with the employee.  He and I talked for a while, and I only asked him if he would take pictures of the inside of the cabinet.  He volunteered that they have been getting A LOT of requests via email for copies of the game and for pictures of the inside.  I told him I was only interested in seeing the inside, because I wanted to know if the game was on disc, USB, or some other form.  Then we talked about his memory that it is on USB and dongle.  I actually never asked him to copy the game or request him to pirate it.  I did tell him that if he put some pictures up on the ebay listing it might cut down on the amount of email they are getting.  That is when he said he would ask his bosses about that.

I can totally see how you came to your conclusion, but I just want to clear the air.  I didn't request a copy of the game.  I am pursuing the game through the auction and through Disney Legal.
