Yabause for PSP Released - Sega Saturn Emulator for PSP

[wraggster]

SofiyaCat has today popped up with a test release of the Sega Saturn emulator Yabause for the PSP. this emulator has been ported to Dreamcast by DCemu UKs very own BlueCrab so its nice and very interesting to see it ported to PSP.

Be under no illusion that this is basically a tech demo but how cool

You will need a saturn bios too

Sega Saturn for the PSP was one of the very first things I asked for when I first joined here which at the time it was in the rules not to ask for a Saturn emulator on the PSP, and now there's a tech demo

Wow, that's fantastic. It's extremely slow, as you'd expect, and there's no sound, but at least it runs. =D This has great potential.

Can you run this on nintendo ds? Thatd be a dream come true. haha

You know if sega released games like sonic jam and sonic cd n stuff back on new systems there stocks would raise $$$! hahah

You will never be able to run a PSP app on DS.


Where's the source for the PSP version? There are so many ports of Yabause, I should really do a Xbox port.

Last time I checked, the source to the PSP version is on the website with the PSP version.

Also, there's hardly any chance of anyone bothering to port Yabause to the DS for the simple fact that there's absolutely no way it could ever be full-speed (it only runs ~7 FPS tops on the Dreamcast, which is more powerful than the DS)

Finally, feel free to port it to the Xbox. I think I can speak for the Yabause team at large when I say that we'd be happy to have another port as long as you can keep up with the release schedule as long as your port is legal (i.e, it uses OpenXDK).

Saturn has:

1MB SDRAM
1MB DRAM
1.5MB VRAM
4KB color RAM
512KB audio RAM
512KB CD-ROM cache
32KB battery backup RAM
512KB BIOS ROM

That's a little over 5MB. You might be able to cut out the CD-ROM cache, but it'd still be over 4MB, which is what you'd need to do it in on DS (never mind the amount needed for the emulator binary and any other buffers like translation cache)
