ive seen some questions asked about certain emu's for the psp and ds, silly ones, but good ones asked due to lack of knowledge. so, im making this thread, to show new ppl what will not run on a psp, and give some general pointers.
WHAT WILL NOT RUN OR BE BOTHERED WITH:
Dreamcast
PS2
Xbox
Gamecube
DS
system name here
GENERAL EMULATION POINTERS:
to emulate a game system, the system to run the emulator on must be 7 times as powerful(as ive heard) so, a psp with it's 333mhz processor will NOT run a dreamcast emulator, as the dreamcast has a 200mhz processor. same goes for PS2 on psp, with almost the same specs, and xbox, which is twice as powerful as a psp.
so, in recap:
if a game system is close to as powerful as the system to have an emulator, that system cannot be emulated.
Now, if anyone asks for a dreamcast or DS emulator, you have exposed yourself to the line of dissing fire. the info is RIGHT HERE(well, up there ^) and there's no excuse not to have it.(if it gets stickied hint hint)
