/vr/ - Retro Games

Is it still impossible to emulate Banjo-Tooie on a toaster with a stable framerate and no missing textures? I don't want to shell out hundreds of dollars to get an XBOX and rom, an N64 and a cartridge all set up, or a gaming PC, all just for the one N64 game I want to play.

I want to make Sonic hacks of the same caliber as Somari the Adventurer, Pana Der Hejhog, Sonic Classic Heroes, and Amy in Sonic 2. Implementing new characters with new mechanics and properties, designing new levels, and changing graphics/music. Where would a total noob start?

Looks bad but you might like this design, it's pretty interesting. It's based on the SMW sprite.
