NEWS General Updates

PSP Fate Extra [Regular and Limited Editions] Delayed
Publisher Marvelous has pushed the release date for Fate Extra from March 18, 2010 to an unspecified date in 2010. All preorders will be kept on reservation and we'll post another update once the new ship date is announced. Preorders are welcome for both versions of the game.
Server felled by a CR2032 battery
One of our servers rebooted during the twilight hours of Tuesday morning but didn't come back up. We tried rebooting it remotely. Thrice. When that didn't work, a visit to the co-location center located downtown was necessary. The server looked okay and the lights were on but when it was hooked up to a terminal, the system wouldn't reboot into normal services because the little CR2032 battery had croaked. Gave up the ghost. Dead as dirt. Guess we should've changed it after 10 years. The server needed the time and date to be entered and saved before rebooting properly. Of course, no one has CR2032 batteries when you need them the most but after a 20-minute boy scout trek to Chinatown, we popped in the new CR2032 (cost: $1.25, no tax) and the server saved the time, date, and CMOS settings and rebooted normally with all services intact.

You could have harvested a battery from a Sega Saturn, it used those type.
