Are emulators good replacements for real consoles?

[Anonymous No.1017854]

For gen 5 and below yes, just buy a current gen console to play new games. Those are backwards compatible with gen 6 also so you'd have the whole gaming spectrum covered.

The biggest issue is all the overhead from the OS and buffering from the graphics card drivers, really. On Linux, using KMS you can remove virtually all that overhead and buffering, leaving you with little to no input lag. At that point, any remaining lag would probably be a result of the display.

I have no idea how anyone can truly say that emulation is crap compared to the real thing. My first hand experience tells me otherwise.

[Anonymous No.1018427]

Depends on the emulator and the conditions.

Personally, I prefer flash carts + the original console.

If I have to emulate, I use a real N64 controller through USB adapter on my computer, with the following EMUs.

SNES: bSnes
N64: Project 64 1.6
GBA: Visual Boy Advance
PSX: Xebra

This doesn't mean these are the best, and if they aren't, I'd definitely love for someone to say so.

You're good with bSNES (though I prefer using it through RetroArch rather than through higan) and Xebra, but regular VBA is very outdated compared to VBA-M, so give that a try. As for Project64 1.6, I think Mupen64Plus is superior, though I'd wait until the RetroArch version is finished, since the standalone version has no GUI or frontend, so it's not very user friendly.

They're acceptable, but it's still more fun to have the original consoles in most cases. There's also the question of input lag, which isn't noticeable enough to make a difference in most cases, but can screw you over when emulating processor-intensive games or games that require literal split-second timing.

120hz has less input lag though

[Anonymous No.1019010]

>>1018992

The amount gained is negligible. It's just a technical bonus proponents of 120hz use to argue their case. The real root of lag is the emulator, the pc, the controller, and the television. Not the signal.

And I'd much rather play 240 60hz than jump through hoops on a new tech trying to get a natural image.

granted cpus are so fast it no longer matters whether something runs fast or not, so these mame-style all encompassing shit-emulators are just fine

I just dont see why you would bother switching over to them

I mean if you're just emulating some old game, what the fuck difference does it matter if it's a tiny bit off (and even this is subjective)

If you think ZSNES's emulation is anywhere close to good, you don't know shit about SNES emulation. Can't even do transparencies right, sound accuracy is considerably off, SA-1 is broken, etc. SNES9x has been ahead of it for years now.

You've probably never even touched a real SNES so you probably don't know how badly ZSNES emulates certain things.

Sorry but you're fucking retarded. If your PC can't run fucking SNES9x fullspeed, congratulations - your PC is slower than a Wii, because a Wii can run SNES9x-Next, an optimized SNES9x 1.52 fork, full speed with Blargg's perfect audio emulation.

Also ZSNES is utterly irrelevant today because it is written in non-portable x86 ASM so it's a dead-end.

[Anonymous No.1019892]

You will never have a satisfactory answer here because of 2 reasons.

1. If you played the game on certain hardware, you attach the experience to that hardware. This is not nostalgia, but a somatic and visual attachment. Tactile input is a large part of the gaming experience, and changing the timing and the controller can ruin it. This is not true for everyone, but it is true for many who visit this board. Ditto CRT output arguments. You either understand the mentality or you don't.

2. Experiencing a game in emulation is really a stopgap, regardless of how you justify it. You either haven't the time, money, or space for the original hardware. This is completely understandable. I only have a collection of over 700 games across 15 platforms and that takes up a whole room. This is not a poorfag argument for them; it's a fact of life that not everyone has the crazy devotion to hardware that some of us do.

tl;dr - Emulation is okay if you can't bother with the old consoles and can live with whatever it is you deem as "good enough". Fuck the haters.

[Anonymous No.1019893]

>>1019885


you're trying too hard man

I don't see the issue with wanting to play on an emulator that plays most games without any issues.

That's the point of an emulator is it not? to have access to a huge library of games?

What good is it if I have to switch emulators to play a game? why not just save myself the time and get the emulator that works best?

Using an emulator only because of nostalgia (literally the only reason to use ZNES) seems like the more hipster thing to do.

[Anonymous No.1019956]

I mostly use ZSNES and I'm fine with it. If something doesn't work right I just use another emulator. I think arguing over emulators is really stupid. Just use whatever you like best and be done with it. It doesn't matter what the other person likes. It's not like they are holding a gun to your head and forcing you to use their emulator of choice.

I no longer have anything older than a PS2 and Gamecube. I don't have the room or the money for all those old systems I used to have. So I emulate. And it's not the same experience. But it's close enough. Plus I can play translations and games not released in the US. Sure there are ways to do that on the actual console. But this is just easier and I don't have a ton of carts taking up space that I might only play once but can't bear to part with.

Sometimes I use filters. I like to test them out for fun. And some games look better to me with filters. Getting up in arms over the use of filters is as stupid as arguing over other people's choice in emulators. Who cares? Just don't use them yourself if you don't like them.

>not emulating PCs on handheld devices

[Anonymous No.1023341]

When recording gameplay of any console, it's best to emulate it on the computer (then recording is a breeze + playing the game at max AA, etc.).

IMO, playing handheld games is best on an actual handheld. A modded PSP can play all consoles from NES to GBA.

As a question, how is the progress on an Xbox emulator? I heard it's close to impossible (or really really really really hard), so I ended up buying an original xbox.

Likewise, how is the N64 emulation scene? I heard it STILL has problems (unlike the PSX emulation scene where everything works great (ePSX)

If I recall correctly the reason why N64 emulation is so behind is that the original creator has gotten bored of the project and he won't let other people pick up where he left off or something.

OMFG all of your arguments are always "you guys shouldn't look at girls butts because I don't like it and I'm a girl" "You should use CRTs because I think they look better and I'm a girl"

No, but in 30 years or so they'll be all we have.

Mupen64plus is beyond Project64 and works on platforms other than Windows

>"FlashROM used in Nintendo DS cartridges are only rated for 10-20 years of life...Far less than MaskROM used by the SNES era," byuu wrote when I asked about the eventual disappearance of SNES hardware. "More complex systems lead to quicker faults as well. You don't hear much about red rings of death on the SNES, for example. And nowadays there's all the DRM, the digital-only downloads and post-sale game patches, and the upcoming restrictions against resale, and I see a very bleak future for preservation."

Not impressive.

[Anonymous No.1023382]

Isn't it kind of weird to think that some developers don't have a working copy of a game they programmed and a console to play it on? You essentially create something and yet are forever divorced from it. Never again will you see that thing.

That's probably outdated

We'll have our own cheap flash cartridges before the software completely shits - not that it hasn't been solidly dumped already for the most part. Optical systems will have solid state solutions, hopefully. Once security is cracked, accurate emulation should be easy for x86 based 7th gen systems and beyond, assuming there even ends up being a beyond for consoles and they continue on the path they're on.

That list is outdated as fuck. It lists incompatibilities with versions as low as version 1.3, released years ago, when they're already on 2.0. Donkey Kong 64, for instance, works now.

Good that i didn't wasted my money on it.

>FlashROM
Shit nigga, is this really true???

>MaskROM used by the SNES era
Call me insane, but i believe that those last infinite years.
Because big 'Through-hole technology' > tiny 'Surface-mount technology'.

Who is going to make DS flash carts when the 3DS' life cycle is almost up?

[Anonymous No.1024008]

>>1023650
Oh well, they need to keep a better list if they want people to use their emulator

[Anonymous No.1024335]

>>1024008
Agreed. It's actually a great emulator, since it builds upon the already very compatible Mupen64. Once the libretro version comes out, there should be no excuse to not use it over Project64 except in a handful of cases.
