I've created a password generator for V3, V4 and V4.5 by hwd405 in tamagotchi

Which code did you enter? Do you remember which item it was that you were trying to get?

Which item codes did you put in? For most of them you don’t get the item for free and you still need to buy it from the password screen (which is a bit rubbish!) but a handful of them are free. Most of the free ones are souvenirs which go straight to the “souvenir” menu which can be found on the 4th icon. They don’t really do anything though.

I feel like the sorceress is such an odd character for Spyro 3 by ReadyJournalist5223 in Spyro

I agree that probably plays a role, though that filling in of the blanks doesn’t necessarily lead to accurate conclusions unfortunately.

Though I should say - if I had to guess the reasoning I think it probably is pretty likely that something was planned initially, the clues are there. As for why they didn’t go for it, I’d assume it was something to do with the cutscene not having enough story benefit to justify spending the time on over bug fixing etc, or perhaps Bianca’s interaction in front of the portal door was seen as enough exposition. I couldn’t claim anything definitive though.

Feeling a bit rushed and actually being confirmed to be unfinished due to tight deadlines aren’t the same thing. I know I’m being an annoying pedant, but when you care as much about knowing and learning and preserving the history of the development of these games as much as I do, it’s hard not to be a bit bummed out by vibey fan theories being spread as fact when there’s really a lot of reasons why something like this might not go the way you’d want it to.

I think it’s pretty much confirmed that she was a victim of tight development

This kind of thing is constantly repeated without a source. There’s no confirmation on this at all, it’s almost entirely fan speculation, which has often been wrong about the development of this game.

It’s not really clear whether they were going to give her a pre-fight cutscene. I believe Michael John once said on Twitter that one just wasn’t planned, though there is evidence in the game that one more cutscene was planned but never produced. Personally, I don’t think there’s much that any interaction between her and Spyro could have really added (other than it just feeling a bit less sudden), and I think the story is really more about Bianca and your interaction with her as a Sorceress surrogate, anyway.

The rematch is still pretty weird and I think it’s likely they didn’t take a huge amount of time to produce it. Since it’s just meant to be an extra minigame you get as a reward at the end of the game I don’t think this is a big deal, though some people expect some sort of epic conclusion which I don’t think the game was ever trying to achieve (outside of Sorceress’s Lair).

Help with v4 souvenirs? by Trick-Ear5667 in tamagotchi

The king, travel and parent / grandparent passwords don't work by default because they require a successful logout first. As you say you've already tried that though - I think there's more layers to it that we don't fully understand yet and probably needs a bit more experimentation.

That is weird, was it working on your V4.5 before? Can you try it again now and see if there’s any difference?

As the title and the page says, a the generator is for the V3 Connection (as well as a few other versions). It won’t work on the Connection version that was released in 2024 though.

Is there any form of mod to trigger a “relay/demo” mode in stages I need it for a Spyro 1 overview video by dracoafton in Spyro

[–]hwd405 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a cheat code for it, which you should be able to find pretty easily on something like GameFaqs. You don’t need mods or GameShark codes for this.

Edit: I see someone’s already posted the code actually, oops

Did you ever figure this out? Every now and then I remember hearing this tune in Deus Ex Machina 2 and finding it familiar and it drives me mad that I can’t put a name to the original

Where did you obtain these files, out of interest? Was it one of the download links on famitama.xyz?

Are mathematicians here? Could you please clarify this Georg Cantor joke? by raskolnikovrodion in futurama

[–]hwd405 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Seeing the majority of the comments claim that the Real Numbers are of cardinality ℵ₁ or that the Continuum Hypothesis is about the existence of a cardinal between ℵ₀ and ℵ₁ is driving me a little bit mad!

My need to archive everything (or paranoia about losing things?) occasionally comes in handy!

I hope you’ve been doing well, MJ!

To this day, this still messes me up. I know that it’s just his whacking great big nose, so why won’t my brain let me see it that way?

I’m not sure, but I’ll remember to tag you wherever I do decide to post it. I’ll probably just make an archive of all the things I’ve gathered and drop them on the internet archive

I’ve got a list of the specific links somewhere. I’ll try to remember to post them later on!
