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
Is N64 emulating still shit everywhere? I keep wanting to play Banjo and every time get sad that rendering just doesn’t work
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.
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
I owned and personally backed up every game from every console released up until the year 2000, however I accidently and lost all of them.
Good thing I backed them up!
I don’t even buy games anymore unless it’s gonna get a lot of multiplayer time with friends. Everything else is unashamedly stolen lmao, nintendo can drink from my ass
It’s hilarious how there are active Switch emulators and people playing leaked entire games before they are officially released
I played the entirety of Pokemon Scarlet 8 days before the commercial release.
I played Monster Hunter Rise 4 days before it’s commercial switch release.
I played those games, online through the Ryujinx LDN build, sometimes a week before they came out. The switch emulation scene is amazing.
Emulator developers are incredibly talented people.
Honestly even as someone who’s really enjoying Scarlet/Violet if you’re playing it on an emulator odds are you’re getting the better gameplay experience lmao
it even has working multiplayer…
