Psp Emulation recently interviewed me. So if you're currious to find out a little more about me. Go read up.

Great interview. Do you have any college level training for programing (you mentioned high school, but nothing else)?

Also, just based off your interview, you said you hope to have N64 games 16mb or less working at playable speeds. Can you explain why they have to be 16mb or less (essentially, what difference does it make as to how large the game is)?

Wow, you are a new super star!!!

But the virtual ram is possible on the psp? Can you compress the rom gfx in ram with the S3TC ?

Thanks for your free times, bye

WOW! In the interview I read that you could probably get Mario 64 working almost perfect with a fps of 30!!! You're the coolest person ever! Keep up the good work!

Nope no college. I am a complet self taught coder.

Also the reason for 16MB is due to memory limitations (psp only gives me 24MB of ram to work with, streaming the entire rom from mem stick would be too slow). I am considering some methods to solve this but I wont care about looking into it for quite some time. So

So, do you think that we might be playing Mario 64 or games like Super Smash Brothers in the next couple of months?

[PSmonkey]

hopefuly. no promiss tho.

[middlemaniac]

If I am playing Mario 64 at a good playable speed in a month or two I'll be very happy!

What's the new present you said you would be posting this weekend?

[Electrifying]

Be patient, you know what the present is, when it is out middlemaniac

Anyway, i am very patiently waiting for what yet to come. Monkey 64 is the homebrew project i am most excited about. I also wish you the very best in the future for Monkey 64 and Iris (I am also looking out for Iris because it works on 2.0 , and it is really cool. I like the alien in Iris 0.1 :P)

So I fully support you PSmonkey, and your my saver if eventually some N64 games work on the PSP :P
