    or at least why doesnt sega make a best of saturn compilation umd for the psp instead of the huge leaps of crap they keep releasing on the psp like sonic rivals or after burner or monkey ball (sucky game compared to the old games)?

    for good emulation the emulator system needs to be 10x more powerful than the system its emulating. the psp is not 10x more powerful than the saturn. it cant even do n64 very well yet. thats just a stupid question... uninformed really.

    Saturn is really powerful. But don't forget it can be emulated thanks to the job from Sega and Nintendo (AKA professional people), not homebrew coders.

    n64 still doesnt run properly on psp. you cant really say that if n64 can be done so who knows if n64 hasnt been done yet. yeah it runs and im very happy about that but is it really a proper emulator? no its not. its a work in progress.

    EDIT: also the title of this thread makes ene laugh. if the wii can handle sega saturn emulation why not the psp? :rofl: the wii is just a wii bit more powerful than the psp plus the fact that right now there isnt a saturn emu for wii official or otherwise. its like asking if rocks can talk than why cant trees?
