I was at a local arcade expo last weekend and someone brought an Initial D pair and had it listed for sale. Wanting to see if the seller would break up the pair and just sell me one, I texted him to ask. He replied back that it wouldn't work as a single and the game requires to be linked to another.
Now, the pair had ID2 booted and I'll admit to never having booted ID2 at home, so not sure if it behaves differently than ID3, but I was pretty sure the seller was mistaken and I proceeded to let him know that.
He maintained that it required a pair. It wasn't in great shape for the asking price, so I gave up arguing and didn't pursue the purchase of the pair.
So what's the deal? Are there stock versions of ID software that require a linked pair?. I know I could ultimately netboot any NAOMI2 version I want and that the ID3 I've been booting up to this point is fine as a single.
