what ARE the dc emulators now?

flatbush27 · March 16th, 2002

for maybe half a year, and in NGEmu's last poll, i heard of DC emulation gettin started. is this true? i know they don't run commercial games, since i heard that all over too. but, what are the current dc emus that run anything at all?

There are 3 of them at the moment all mentioned at Ngemu DC section !! The Most promesing in the moment is Boob!Cast .

I believe the emulator named "dreamer" runs midway arcade greatest hits but i downloaded it and i tried it and it allmost screwed up my cd drive i had to use my manual eject to get the cd out

That's bad , b ut as far the choice of the 3 DC emu's , boob!cast is quiet good !! It's very Promesing !! It seems to run Bomberman .

the biggest thing right now on dc is running emu's on it

Zell · March 21st, 2002

Not for me !!

i'd rather run emus for it than emus on it. personally i think the DC is much better than the PSX. the DC has some great games as well. but oh well.... guess we'll have to see how everything turns out

It's probs gonna be a bit like the Saturn emulation. People seem more interested in PS2 emulation. Personaly at the mo, I'd prefer to see more progress on DC emulation (That's just because my machine is more likely to run it

)

I'd really like to see some real progress with saturn emulation., But I have low hopes for it. As I can';t even read the websites that design the emulators.

As far as a DC emulator goes. I what good it'd do me as the Dreamcast uses the Gd-rom discs and you need a special piece of hardware to burn them to cd.

Unless of course you went the ilegal route... Which I do not condone or endorse =p

a normal DVD drive can read GD Roms IIRC

March 30th, 2002

My DVD drive can't. I'll give it that it's old. (4x DVD drive)

But I do believe it can't be because it took 1 year 2 months before someone finally cracked the Gd-rom format in Hong Kong, Once it was done, pirated copies on CDR disks influxed galore.

Edit: Nintendo's gamecube format is similar to the GD-rom format, it was done so people couldn't pick up a PSX game (like today you can) and pop it into a burner and make copies.

Yes, it does run Bomberman, but I thought it was the homebrew version.

so does it mean that MAYBE PS2 emu may come out first than a DC emu???

Quatro · April 9th, 2002

Well I mean there are a lot of great DC games out there. I do hope that they could eventually find a way to make DC emu's play commercial games in the near future. Keep it up guys
