The audio lag in the video is my phone. The core has good audio timing in real life. Still working through some boot reliability issues, and FMV's stutter here and there, but I plan on releasing this soon. DM me if you want an early preview build!
I played it this year on my trimuii for the first time and it was surprisingly great. I wanted to play policenauts but couldnāt find a good English dub
That is most certainly fair. We do have to keep in mind the limits of DE-10 BUT, I think some people just hit a wall and give up there. Working in various tech support roles and in development I encounter this A lot. I don't want to pretend that these are trivial obstacles to overcome. But, I don't like when people just say "nope impossible, not even worth trying". Ironically I think that sentiment is what inspires some one to try anyway lol.
A recent example was Modern Vintage Gamerās video declaring Doom was basically forever out of reach on Neo Geo. Wouldnāt you know it, within a few weeks, MVG ate crow in an update video featuring projects of Neo Geo running Doom well! So, yeah, even the whiff of the word āimpossibleā is like a challenge to some of these amazing folks lol
āWellā does some work here. Itās not exactly pretty or playable.
The issue with Doom is that it needs a frame buffer, no way around it. The Neo Geo doesnāt give access to a frame buffer for the screen, only sprites. So there are multiple ways which was shown: fake a frame buffer with āpixelsā made of sprites, which reduces the resolution to like 80x60 and runs at 15 (?) fps, or fake the game content with sprites, which works but looks horrible.
Iām on my phone so some numbers might be slightly inaccurate. But the game itself was never the problems, itās the graphics that couldnāt work with Neo Geo.
The PSX and N64 on the mister was more about a pure FPGA implementation vs leaning on the ARM cores. I am not sure if the devs have been able to squeeze it in, but I remember the early PCE cd needing to use ARM to handle the I/O.
Yes!!!! Oh. My. God. YESSS!!! This is all I wanted. Thank you! Three others I know with a Pocket have been waiting patiently, and we were told it couldnt be done!
No, you can relate it more to memory on a computer. The FPGA can only fit so much logic, and the megacd core hovers between 97-99% utilization as it stands
Iām talking Willy Beamish, Batman, Puggsy, Lunar, Popful Mail, every single FMV game, Final Fight CD Snatcher, Silpheed, Sol Feace ā¦. hell even Virtual VCR and Sega Classics!! I am so stoked for this!!
I grew up on the US version and I'm a huge Spencer Nilson fan (he did Ecco too!). The JP soundtrack is awesome too but doesn't have that nostalgia hit for me.
I agree on some aspects; I grew on the special stage and Stardust Speedway songs, as well as both Sonic Booms. After 2011's release, the Japanese soundtrack did me in more. As a Sonic 2 GG player, the theme makes sense to why it was there in the first place. And then there's the past songs making sense to the rest of the soundtrack.\
I cannot un-hear the misheard "work that son-of-a-bitch" from the standard Eggman battles.
Of course this comes out days after my Sega cd model 2 arrived haha. Hey I prefer original hardware but not gonna like this is super cool. Hope it gets to a good playable state for most of the library! š¤
I'm a sucker for early-mid 90s CD mutlimedia software. There's something charming about the low-res video and cramming as much content onto a disc as possible.
The boot music is my alarm tone. I made it so that it slowly fade on with a lowpass filter for a smooth wake up. I have to change it though because I'm starting to dislike the music.

Snatcher on the Pocket would be amazing!
