Thanks Norco for this thread! R.I.P PSZ forever. You served to entertain us for hours on end.

I know nothing of the cost for such hardware, and for most (like me), all of it isn't worth it, but I assume w/o friend codes, it will be impossible to 'meet up' with a friend online anyway? If that's the case, then "Free PLay" is the only option? Nick and I did this when the Friend-play wasn't working, so it's not impossible - both simply need do Free play at the same time, while being roughly in the same region.
As for the technical stuff, I've generally not done the rom dumping myself, but the software 'black magic' isn't that bad at all. For the fanboys on here, I'm sure a few minutes of it won't turn them off.
EDIT: Okay, lol, so I missed the point. The patch is the problem, either AR (which has no code for PSZ) or a custom patch to remove the SSL to allow it to connect to your network/server for online play still. So yeah, that's a bit of a turn off, lol...
