/vr/ - Retro Games

I remember it only getting good around 99 when a normie pc could handle it. The emulators themselves needed several major updates too.

In the old days things like this would be wrong. I think people still see things like zsnes as an essential emulator. It's lack of research.

I thought the snes classic would be able to handle this but it still had lag and transparency issues. I played it on the zsnes core and it was alright.

Nope. Your phone can do it better.

You can run ZSNES and experience low accuracy retro emulation, but there's no good raisin to use anything but your most powerful computer for that.

What specific video card? I believe that determines what you can run that wouldn't play better on your main PC. Waiting on slow hard drives isn't fun.

The zsnes problems are slightly exaggerated, but they are there. There's zero rational reason to use it in 2013. People are just stuck in their ways and when challenged just dig their heels in. I mean, it's just a program to play games, why are you getting so defensive? It's really an issue of program 1 has a lot of problems. Program 2 has fewer.

Image is the visual glitch in zsnes compared to other emulators.

Sound is also off. Subtly off, sometimes majorly but it's totally there. I can't seem to find any zsnes vs. other emulator videos. But I found one for Timecop since it has a glitch where it plays music too fast.

It's a random shitty game, but just the sort of random issues you'll run into if you stray from the big top games.

In the latest 1.51 version of zsnes certain games can freeze, such as Super Mario RPG. The 1.51 update broke way more things than it fixed.

Also, please stop saying "I have never encountered an issue" since it's not a very convincing argument to critics because:

1. It's only as relevant as what you can notice. If you have never played the original, or have played it years ago subtle differences will go unnoticed.
2. Only relevant to the games you've played. And most people play the most popular games. It has hacks to make the most popular games work, so it's no shock they do. Stray from the top 10 and you'll get more issues.

List of real problems.

OP saw that some of the zsnes critics were Retroarch fans, so he made a 0/10 bait thread. It's transparently obvious.

But not as transparatent as zsnes' Pseudo Hi-Res translucency

>So parts of Kirby's Whatever 3 isn't translucent:

I'd imagine people who wanted to play Kirby's Dreamland 3 would care. This gif cycles through how it should be portrayed (clear) and how zsnes shows it (solid).

That's fine, but I can say he's using an inferior product for no reason. And I have no problem telling others that. A lot of people actually do care, but they lack the information to make the decisions for themselves, so they might appreciate knowing about Zsnes' failures.
