Pokemon YOSHIRA Mew GameBoy Distribution Save Released

  • 10,029

18 years, 1 month, 1 week and 1 day ago today on the 8th of December 1999 the Pokemon YOSHIRA Mew distribution took place at Toys R Us stores in the United States. This was one of the first chances Pokemon collectors in the USA had to obtain their very own Mew, a Pokemon that otherwise was not obtainable though normal game play.

This distribution was a direct trade, meaning the Mews were loaded on to a normal Pokemon Red and Blue cartridge and traded to people who attended the event.

Fast forward from 1999 to 2018 we're pleased to announce we have been able to obtain the save game from a Pokemon Red cartridge used for this distribution. Needless to say to do this all these years later is quite an achievement, given that batteries in GameBoy cartridges don't last forever, erasing the savegame forever when they fail.

We're currently in the process of moving the various Virtual Machines (VM's) that Digiex runs on to a new server. The main web server VM was successfully moved this morning. We're now in the process of moving the download VM, along with all the Digiex downloads which are not forum attachments. Therefore any large downloads which are served from download.digiex.net will be offline for the next day or so, anything small attached to a forum post can still be downloaded as normal.

Most people will probably not notice any different, however please bear with us and everything will be moved over shortly.

Update - All download's should be back online now, the only thing we have to do is move over websites we host for various community members.

Kodi (Xbmc) Released For The Xbox One

Those of you who have followed the Xbox scene for many years will probably remember XBMC (Xbox Media Center), XBMC is probably the most successful games console homebrew application of all time. It started out life back in 2002 as Xbox Media Player where several different media players projects for the original Xbox merged, allowing more people to work together to achieve a common goal, of having a fantastic media player for the Xbox.

Back then times were much different, computers and devices with processors in them were not everywhere around the home. Most people didn't have a device connected to their TV that could view photos stored on their computer, play MP3's, or even popular video formats such as Divx and Xvid. The fancy DVD players that could play Divx and Xvid video cost significantly more than an Xbox games console. This made a hacked Xbox a pretty unique thing, an affordable home media center.

You have likely seen Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin or other popular Crypto Currencies (known as Altcoins) in the news over the last couple of months. Its also likely you never understood enough about how to start investing in such Crypto Currencies, or even why you should.

Hopefully Digiex can answer those questions and help get you started with our new article: Investing in Bitcoin / Altcoin - It’s never too late to start.

Once you understand the basics of Bitcoin / Altcoins it's really not hard at all. In the article I've tried to cover all the questions I had 6 months ago when getting started, along with what Altcoins I perceive are worth investing in, to finally what you need to get started.

Hopefully by sharing my experiences over the last half a year I might encourage others who have been thinking about investing in some Altcoin's to get started and...

Amazon and Apple - Outside of the US you can now buy Amazon Video subscription via Apple App Store

With all the news going around about Apple and Amazon's fight back in the day with de-listing of Apple TV's from the Amazon Store, Amazon's refusal to make an Apple TV App and how they have now made up and released the App - something bigger seems to have gone totally unnoticed. It seems you can now officially buy Subscriptions to Amazon Prime Video in the Apple App Store app directly via In-App Purchases.

This feature doesn't seem to exist in the US (which is why most the US based tech news sites are not covering it), but if you are in an Amazon supported region outside the US, you can now directly pay for your subscription via the Apple App Store. The big question is, does Apple get a 30% cut like it forces on Spotify and other services, or have Amazon and Apple come to some sort of agreement and in turn Amazon becoming the first provider to get around Apple's In App Purchases Policy?

Humble Bundle is giving away the complete edition of Sid Meier's Civilization III for free. The game launched back in 2001 so you will have to have been a PC gamer for a fair while to remember this one.

Civilization III, like the other Civilization games, entails building an empire, from the ground up, beginning in 4,000 BC and continuing slightly beyond the modern day. The player must construct and improve cities, train military and non-military units, improve terrain, research technologies, build Wonders of the World, make war or peace with neighboring civilizations, and so on.

If that sounds interesting to you head over to the Humble Store and claim your free copy of the game, which can be redeemed on Steam.
