Talk:NESticle

message: :Image:NESticle DOS Screenshot.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:NESticle DOS Screenshot.png

message: I consider that not many people know what a scrotum is (the bag that holds the testicles in many mammals), so I suggest changing it to testicle.
However, this might seem a bit offensive to some Wikipedians so, any recommendations on what to name it?
I will edit it as testicle for the time being.

replies: text: On Wikipedia, I think it's more about accuracy than not offending people. The recent problems with the picture on the Mohammad article are a perfect example of that. If the logo was a scrotum, it should be written as such. A hotlink should inform people what scrotum is if they're not too sure about it. --Thaddius (talk) 16:49, 3 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Nesticle was also cited by SPIN magazine in 2004. See http://books.google.com/books?id=NhnqJL2C06oC&pg=PA86&dq=nesticle&hl=en&ei=8RsrTuzuCaHh0QGRg4DfCg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=4&ved=0CDQQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=nesticle&f=false . I'm not sure how to cite this, so I am putting it on the talk page for someone else to do. snaphat (talk) 19:10, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I find it amusing that the article states that 'NESticle was coded in C++ and assembly using Microsoft Visual C++ 4.10' while the screenshot clearly shows it was compiled using Watcom. Has any part of this article been researched at all?  — 76.218.205.183 (talk) 04:09, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text:  I too found it humorous. Although it's possible that it was coded in Microsoft VC++ and compiled in Watcom. This software (and the Genecyst genesis emulator from the same author) is a good testament to the optimizing capabilities of the |Watcom suite of compilers.

message: Anyone know why the "Final release" section in the article infobox is parsing "Windows 95" as "Windows 1995"? There doesn't seem to be any associated MediaWiki markup for that section. Bumm13 (talk) 11:34, 19 May 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Final release" in Infobox software 

message: Hey all, I will not add this myself as I wrote the piece and am credited by the author of the work for helping to uncover the emulator’s existence, but I wrote a followup to my 2017 in-depth story on NESticle that discusses the reverse-engineering of its until-now unreleased successor, SNESticle, which existed in a GameCube game, in an effort called the SNESticle Liberation Project.
Please let me know if any questions or clarifications are needed. — Ernie at Tedium (talk) 22:37, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
