PSP: CPS1PSP Final Release... And Farewell From NJ?

True to his word, NJ has released the source code for his three arcade emulators: CPS1PSP, CPS2PSP, and NGEPSP. With the release of these sources, he also released the final version of CPS1PSP which includes a minor bugfix for a single game:

Fixed state save/load in Pang!3

Additionally, he has addressed speculations about what project he'll tackle next:

With this, things have settled down for me. I don't think there will be anymore updates for the forseeable future.
As for what I'll make next, maybe I'll port something else... However, it's more likely that I'll just end it with this.

There aren't any (that I'm interested in) from overseas makers, SEGA, or CAPCOM.
Source could be reused for SEGA, however, sadly, I have absolutely no interest in them, including their home consoles. Additionally, I started working on CPS1PSP without knowing about the impending release of Capcom Collection. It looks like there might not be any need to make anything else.

Just my two cents, but since there still aren't any solid PCE-S/CD emulators for the PSP, and seeing as how NJ was able to nail NG-CD emulation, that's one project that I'd personally love to see him tackle.

A PCE-S/CD emulator would be great!!!
Lots of great unknowns on that system. I find new ones every other week.

My second choice would be for a Raine emu since MAME has been so quiet.

Mame!!!

I Would Love To See Him Do MAME!!!!

Nooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! :eek: Please say it ain't so. (I was praying for a Raine emu...) :eek:

All I can say Is that nj and his emulators have given me the upmost pleasure in the homebrew scene.it would be sush a shame to lose nj and his coding abilitys.

Thanks again to nj !!!!!!!

wow they're dropping like flies :(...but he definitly did enough with the 3 a day releases and CPS2PSP :D, so good luck NJ(in whatever u do) and i hope to see some more of ur work, but if not u still rock

all i can say is nj please dont go as you are the single reason ithat made it worth owning a psp i see alot of people would like to see a decent port of mame iwould be exstatic if you would take up that mantle as ive still to see arcade emulation that rivals your emulators cheers for a great time and if be a sad farewell. caz:( :( :( :( :( :(

Well don't worry about a raine emu. One will come eventually. I know it. But i have all ready said to much lol. I can't say anything other than that. You'll all have to wait and see...

BTW, the files attached to this post are for the CPS2 emulator, not CPS1. :p

/\ /\ I wholeheartedly agree with you :p If NJ is leaving than I thank him for all that hes done :D

... a decent MAME version wouldnt go amiss though... :o

Yet another coer going.A very sad day and the loss of a great coder.Im sure i speak for everydody when i say thanks and wish NJ all the sucess he deserves in his future projects.

CPS2PSP is a Perfect -compliment- to the Capcom Collection.

CPS2PSP is Awesome.

Thank you NJ!

Yeah, we really need a good mame emulator, the MAME4ALL releases were looking good for a while but NJ is the master of Arcade Emulation!! no questions

So? No comments on this mater?


MAME by NJ would be fantastic! :D

Yep definatley CPS2 emulator.wierd :(

damn i would have loved to see him rap up cps2 a little bit more it was very good but not perfect

cps1 was flawless with no problems

both were great emu's

I'm not too discouraged. NJ has given us A LOT! Between Neo Geo CDZ, NGE PSP, CP1 & CPS2 we have plenty to keep us occupied for months/years to come.

Also, NJ has made vague references to ending work before only to come out with something new that surpassed all previous works.

I don't think we've seen the last from NJ.

I also would like to see a PCE - CD-ROM EMU or an updated / advanced TG-16 (PCE) EMU for that matter.

Thanks for all your hard work NJ!
I love havin all the streetfighters and king of fighters!!
classic fighting games

what games did the raine system have?
and would a zinc emulator be possible on the psp?

Mame!!

Yay, NJ! great work, as always...but don't go yet...there's still MAME and PCE-CD...I mean, we have emulators for both of these already, yes...but they were abandoned, and far from perfect....please tackle these two proyects, or at least one of them...I surely would be more then willing to donate for this great development...YOU CAN DO IT!!!! YOU ARE NJ, after all!!!!

...Yep, those downloads on page 1 need to be fixed...

Neo-Geo code :o...Someone give sound and reduce lag to the Metal Slug games quick! :|

Alternatively if you are that desperate simply buy the Metal Slug Anthology on PSP when its out..... ;)

Yeah but what if they want you to upgrade...well that's what Devhook is for (I just want to have the Neo-Geo bios with them :D)

Well, NJ was always one of my favourite coders. I followed his every release very closely, and must say, if he is planning on leaving the scene, it will be a great lose. I hope he doesn't go, cuz, without need to say, he is one of the best coders on the scene.
Whatever happens, thanks NJ fo the releases and hard work.

Thanks!

Atari Jaguar would make a nice challenge for you! :)

Here here NJ. Thanks to you I can finally play CPS-1/CPS-2 on my psp. Sure Capcom is releasing a classics with CPS1 games BUT with your emu the game glitches are still intact (guile's handcuffs, invisible throw etc). That just makes it all worthwhile. Thank you lots

thank you NJ
pce-cd please Nj....

Is that Pce-cd you mentioning the Turbo-duo?

NJ isn't going anywhere yet. His website still lists CPS2PSP as an Active Project.
CPS1PSP is now finished. There is at least one more release coming from him.

playing Castlevania Chi No Rondo (Pce CD) with mp3 support would be great but the best thing we could be blessed with would be without any doubt a nice MAME port.

With his emus I am now able to play those arcade games that arent going to be released. Big thanks to NJ.
Im still patiently waiting for those early konami games, or just MAME in general.

NJ is without doubt one of my favorite coders. I sure hope he starts another project but if not, I can only say thanks for everything he has done.
Sure capcom is making collections for the psp but the marvel games will not be in them. they don´t have the licence anymore. without these emus we wouldn´t be able to play those games.

I just wanted to thank NJ for his incredible work. Just the thought of having CPS1 & 2 games on the PSP is too awesome, and the NEO GEO MVS emu is a real space saver on the 'ol memory stick duo. I'd like to wish him luck in whatever he decides to do in the future. I'd love to see him take on MAME (or Sega's system 16 board) though as I'm sure he'd do a killer job.

I really wish the great NJ could work on N64 ;). I could definently picture him pulling off full speed. And I havn't heard a WIP from Strmmmn in a while... I sure hope he didn't quit D:

Anyway great release. I'm glad I don't have to update CPS-1 on my PSP any more =P.

I really hope NJ starts a new project though. He is a legend for coding =O

Are links in this thread going to be updated so they are CPS1, not 2?

:D

I agree with ya, we haven’t seen the last of NJ just yet (de-ja-vu?)!

Time and time again he’s said he’s throwing in the towel and giving up, only to hit us with another succession of updates or some great new project! :)

We’ve been blessed on the PSP so far by this super-coder! ...I’m just really looking forward to his next adventure in the emulation world. :D

Damn, where the hell have I been at lol? Thanks for keeping my PSP alive during its dark periods NJ. He literally turned my PSP into a portable arcade machine. Downloading any version of an emu of his just to find out he already released an updated version (the same day) showed how much effort he put into his work.

The only game I want for RAINE is WWF Wrestlefest. That would look too cool on the PSP screen. I hope he shocks the homebrew scene once again with another project. If not, it doesn't matter because the [b]four[b] emus he put out will last me for a very long time.

Thanks again NJ!

Thanks for Everything NJ!
.
...Y's Book 1 & 2 would be a godsend vis PCECD emu..

Whatever he tackles next, should he decide will be great I am sure.

There are way too many coders leaving the scene! I would like to see him work on a good MAME emulator!
