Emulators for the real PS2

DragonSoull · June 21st, 2003

Are their any emulators for the real PS2?

**Razor Blade** · June 22nd, 2003

Nope. But I know a couple for the "fake" one

Regulus · June 22nd, 2003

this is comedy.....

**Chrono Archangel** · June 22nd, 2003

well there are emulators for PS2......isnt there one for snes and genesis?

The Captain · June 22nd, 2003

Actually, I think DragonSoull is looking for emulators that he can use on his ps2 (e.g. an emulator emulating an snes on the ps2). There are several such emulators and the can be found at Zophar's Domain (http://www.zophar.net/consoles/ps2.html).

oh...ok. i thought we had an idiot on our hands

DragonSoull · June 22nd, 2003

lol, some do think i an one (idiot) and yes i'm looking for emulators that run on the REAL PS2 the one sony sell's

EDIT: any mame port? theres nothing on mame's port list.

**Yeloazndevil** · June 22nd, 2003

nope no mame ports

DragonSoull · June 22nd, 2003

Real shame

, the Metal Slug & Last Blade series would kill on the PS2

But I wonder why,
is the hardware unable to run mame at a decent speed?
is PS2dev too hard or requires the dev version of the ps2?
or is there simply no one interested in it?

Asking because sometimes I’m just curious about stuff

**Razor Blade** · June 22nd, 2003

Theres a sega genesis, snes and nes emulator that can run those games on your ps2.

SNES-Station does a fairly good job of running SNES games on the PS2, however it runs really slow unless you disable the sound.

DragonSoull · June 22nd, 2003

Thanks for all your help people

June 24th, 2003

Why would an snes run slower on a ps2 ? its ten times faster then the SNES was .. this is prolly a very stupid question but shows you im no developer or something .

Carnage · June 24th, 2003

dont know either...but it does make sense that it runs way faster when you turn the sound off..

elachys · June 24th, 2003

you loose speed through emulation.

Carnage · June 24th, 2003

but that really is alot of loss...

elachys · June 24th, 2003

yer but think about it you can loose just that much. Think about PS2 emulation on the PC.

Carnage · June 24th, 2003

so you need a pc wich is 10x faster then a PS2 ???oh crap...

June 24th, 2003

dunno , it makes sense for the PC<->PS2 since things picked up their development rate , but a PS2 not able to emulate an SNES with full speed ? thats .. sad .

Exophase · June 25th, 2003

I guess SNES-Station just isn't all that optimized.. PS2 has the power to run SNES fullspeed no problem, but I'm guessing we're looking at something that's largely a cut and dry SNES9x port... probably using compilers that aren't very optimized too.
