Hey /jp/, is it possible to play touhou on linux?

It's impossible to do ANYTHING in linux.

Enjoy your dependencies, backwards design, forced use of the CLI terminal, and general total user unfriendliness.

Wine works for most things and I believe I've heard of people doing that.

Yes, with a few caveats.
- SWR/Hisoutensoku do not play on NVIDIA due to a driver bug. Sucks.
- Some of the later games need one of the Microsoft DLLs.
- To me, Phantasmagoria likes to freeze up a bit too much. Haven't tried it in a while though.
- Japanese locale needed.

You run them through Wine. Version 1.2 is recommended. Also:

I hope this article is useful. And don't forget your locales before trying to run it, k?

is it possible to emulate the PC-98 touhou games on the wii?
There are emulators available, but the closest i've got to running touhou is getting the zunsoft logo up on the first two, and then after that I get a red error message in moon with the word STOP in it a few times.

To all microsoft fans:

Q: How many supercomputers does actually use Windows?

A: None. All supercomputers use Linux or UNIX.

Q: What OS does most of the servers use?

A: Linux. Even the true hackers recognise that Linux servers are more stable and secure than Windows servers.

Q: How many autistic kids use Linux?

A: None, they all use Windows because it's easier to use.

>> No.6070794

I've been spoiled by package managers and now find Windows more difficult to use than Linux.

Still can't run games for shit, but that's it.

>> No.6070790

q. how many videogame developers use linux as their target platform?

a. none, they all realise linux sucks for home use and only autistic neckbeards with a massive e-penis use it.

>> No.6070797

>>6070757

while that may be right, what advantages do you have using Linux at Home? You need hours to get a program to run thats made for windows, if it works at all. The easy scripting is a really small advantage against the cons...

>> No.6070798

>>6070757
And how exactly those facts make it better for use in HOME? They don't.

Despite what it seems to become here among people who were just looking for a more trendy version of the dulled "retarded", autism doesn't work like that.

I would argue that you would have more autistic people devoted to linux.

>Q: how many videogame developers use linux as their target platform?

A: None. Normal people prefer to play videogames on videoconsoles instead of PCs, because they give a lot of problems and you need an spensive computer, that not everyone can afford, in order to play them. Beside, who uses PCs for gaming, appart of childrens playing L4D?

most visual novels can't appear on consoles since they all ban porn. so, /jp/ uses pc for games.

I don't know enough about ACTA but maybe under ACTA it could be considered copyright infringement because it reimplements Windows APIs (even though it's a clean room implementation created from scratch).
Actually it's pretty much guaranteed to violate lots of MS patents already but they already have antitrust up their ass so they haven't done anything. Yet. but I doubt ACTA would change anything in that regard.

Only on CirnOS apparently.
