[wraggster]

Just spotted this over at Sega Saturn News that theres mention of a Wii Port of Yabause the Sega Saturn Emulator for WIndows, Linux and Dreamcast etc.

wii port:
- Added initial support.

Looks like the Wii Scene is getting even more interesting.

i wonder if it will be faster than the Dreamcast version..

Well it won't be faster than the pc version and the pc version is not that fast. Unless you're running a 3ghz core 2 duo. Might as well play the psp port. Waiting for a playable Saturn emulator is pointless. Porting an x86 emu that isn't all that fast (faster than SSF though, but less copatible) over to a 700mhz non x86 platform is not going to give good results, even if it is optimized. Now if it was coded from scratch that might be one thing. I like Yabause on my PC. It's a great emulator, but I just don't see this really getting anywhere on the Wii.

Pah! I want a Dreamcast emulator!

Why does it have to be the most underpowered system of this next gen that gets the homebrew.
