Have you had fun playing backups of games you legally own on physical media lately? Dumped any BIOS files from the old consoles you own?

I’m sure you have- after all, we’re all about doing things legally and being above board here, aren’t we? :wink:

spoiler

In all honesty, I get why the official forums, subreddits, discords and what have you for different emulator projects have the anti-piracy stances they do- they don’t want years of work being cease and desisted by Sony or Nintendo because of people linking to roms. I still think the pretense is funny

CXBX-R and XEMU are actually able to play many games, I think XEMU is considered the more advanced one but CXBX-R may have the upper hand in some games IIRC. If you use the iso dumps linked in this thread you’ll notice that neither takes regular isos though and you’ll need to convert them to different formats for both

It runs sometimes fine but I couldn’t get my fav games (DK64 and Banjo Tooie) to play at all. Zeldas all worked fine tho. Just inconsistent is all I meant

I played Banjo-Kazooie just fine. The sequel ran absolutely terribly and I gave up on it, however.

Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise was my emulation dream for a long while and Xenia the Xbox 360 emulator has been in a state where it’s quite playable and getting better.

And it’s awesome, I love being able to play it again on my PC, thank you emulator devs, thank you people keeping the roms available online.
