PSP News - Public Discussion - Emulation

**Cokemusic** · August 16th, 2007, 01:27

I could care less if the PSP was able to emulate the DS although I could flame my bro for buying a DS if full speed DS emulation was possible.

The DS doesn't apear to have any games that grab my interest at all , them most viable title for the DS (pokemon diamond) is a 3d game with pretty much 2d gameplay .

If I want nintendo i'll use my GC or N64 emulator on the PSP , appart from that I feel no urge to get a DS right now.

2 processors means yes well kinda i bet if exophoase made ds emulater it could be full speed cause once you start to know the emulator the more ways you will find to make it better

I believe that DS emulation on the PSP has the potential to be playable, but only at about 10-15 fps. I think that sounds pretty reasonable.

I own both a ds and psp.
PSP actually has more remakes than DS.
The psp has worse controls (FPS) than ds.

i was refering to the touch pad being emulated, not when its on the acual ds.

You could do it but It's going to cost you an ARM and an ARM, unfortunately, the PSP has no limbs whatsoever.

What you say about new psp with more memory !? Great, uh ? Will make any difference ?

Maybe this emulator will run at the speeds of Daedalus r11 or r12 by the time Daedalus hits full speed.

PSMonkey seems to have a very good idea of how to do it but is too busy, Exophase would not even touch it and StrmnNrmn is working on r13.

DS emulation on the PSP may not ever be full speed but the games would be in a playable, and that's what counts for me.

To be able to play the pokémon and FF3 on the PSP would be awesome enough, even if it is slow.

If all else fails: frameskip.
