im guessing the format is ST-YYMMXXXL, where L is E/C for English/Chinese, YY=year, MM=month, XXX is a sequential ID no. which would mean Sintax made
at least 78 84! 93!! games. and that probably doesn't even include their GBA stuff. so even given their habit of rehashing old shit, thats a lot of damn games out there. And i want to find them!
ooh yeah, one other thing about Sintax. Even though their first known games seem to have been released in 2002, this old version of their website:
http://web.archive.org/web/20030603184947/www.st168.net/esintax.htmsays they've existed in Taiwan for over 10 years before focusing on the China market, and that they have "experiences more than ten years in TVGAME(GB/GBA/FC/SFC/SEGA) designing, developing and hardwares producing."
a Taiwanese trademark search does indeed reveal this:
http://tmsearch.tipo.gov.tw/TIPO_DR/servlet/InitLogoPictureWordDetail?sKeyNO=083067692a trademark registered by Sintax in Taiwan from late 1994, with an address in (where else) Taichung!
so they clearly weren't bullshitting when they said they'd been around for 10 years, or that they had Taiwanese origins.. and itd explain their ties to Gamtec and Vast Fame if they started out as part of that whole Taichung cluster of companies. question is, just what the hell were they
doing until 2002? I guess with them saying "hardwares producing" they might just have been a generic clonemaker, but nothing like that has ever turned up (to my knowledge) with their name on it.
oh yeah, one final thing. THIS.
http://popbuying.com/detail.pb/sku.2.8__LCD_GBA_NEG_GEO_GBC_SFC_MES_Emulator_Game_Console_Media_Player-28794check out the box! its even written with the same chinese characters. same company? yknow.. i hope so. it'd be nice if those bastards were still out there somewhere. even if they don't have a website anymore.
