SNES, SEGA & NES Games and Emulators, what works, what doesn't and how they stack up

Props to the guy(if it was just one) who wrote this, it's very helpful!!

I know running Emu's at 333mhz doesn't hurt the PSP, but it does effect Battery life, correct? So then that would make a difference between running an Emu at say 270 as opposed to 333 if there is no difference cosmetically.

thanks.

Also I was wondering if the screen on the PSP burns easily. just want to see if I have to run the Emu's in fullscreen

thanks

Im no psp guru, but as far as I know the only thing that will be affected by the boost in the clockrate is battery life. many things can run fairly well at 266mhz now if your worried about it, but i think the extra juice used for 333 is nessicary.

Hello everybody.
I ran into a proplem with running snes roms on the psp and I tried looking for an answer by reading most of the 13 pages of stuff posted on this topic and a few other topics. I couldn't find a solution, so I decided to post something.

I'm using SNES9xTYL, all the roms I tried loaded and ran, except for one single common problem shared by all of them. It lags. It's a consistent lag, even when nothing but a logo is popping up on the screen it lags at the same rate. I tried about 7-8 roms (ff6, turtles in time, mega man x, tales of phantasia, tetris attack, and others). I thought maybe I had to optimized the settings, so I tried all sorts of combination, like raising/lowering the clock speed, raising/lowering frame skip.

Anyways, anyone have any ideas what the problem is? or can direct me to the solution? thanks.

Hehe thats just the emulator dude. Snes emulators have gone a long way on the PSP since the first. But the emulation still has its issues. Its still playable but more work will be needed to get them near perfect. The only real emulators running near perfect are NesterJ and Rin.

Ahh, so it's not just me that's having this trouble. When I was reading the post by other people, I got the impression that everyone else was running those roms perfectly. I'll try out some NesterJ to check it out.

What did u think of nesterj?

Well witht he clock set to 333mhz and a frameskip of 1 or autoskip, I get 90% of games running perfect. And worse case is a frameskip of 2.

There are a few exceptions but 99% of snes games play fantastic on SNES TYL.

Hey, I have a question. Once you download an emulator, how do you dl all the games for it? Sorry if that's stupid, but I'm a noob to all this.

Try google for ROMS works great
