/vr/ - Retro Games

Saturn soonish.

Recommend me some obscured jewels for WonderSwan which we will soon be able to play on MiSTer.

shill

Any thing New since the end of the year when I last updated? I have to take my MiSTer to work to update. My 3 MbPS DSL isn't enough to keep the connection alive to update at home.

>>7825667
you can't shill for commodity hardware and FOSS software bro

>>7825403
>PSX
>Saturn
Not sure that will happen until new hardware

Commit the act of suicide on yourselves you faggot shills

>>7826929
PSX is confirmed basically working on a dev platform that is less powerful than the DE10 - however the primary developer has apparently quit due to community drama and no one (trustworthy) has picked up the mantle. The former may come back to it eventually, and there's someone else who may also take over, but for now all work has ground to a halt.
Saturn core is still in active development and the most recent update shows it booting the BIOS.

Chances are we'll see both finished within 12-18 months, but regardless there's definitely life in the old MiSTer yet.

>>7827752
>PSX
By which I of course meant PS1.

>>7827752
>the primary developer has apparently quit due to community drama
I'll never understand people's inability to just not participate in drama, its really fucking easy, easier then participating even.

CPS2 when?

>>7825403
$350 is a waste of money for a device that only does emulation. My PC does emulation already and does it well.

>>7828014
last friday was the final CPS2 beta so I would guess sometime today
>>7828136
meds take them

>>7828148
>meds take them
I don't do drugs, including prescription drugs(even though I have no prescription to any drugs). I think you're triggered by the fact that I won't spend money on an emulator that only emulates 4th gen consoles.

>>7828162
>emulator that only emulates 4th gen consoles
You are lying!
It emulates first gen consoles too.

>>7828162
Then why are you always in these threads?

>>7828148
JT is releasing some System 16 games today I think.

>>7828320
I cucked him. Now he barks on command every time I post picrel.

>>7828320
Stop replying to this absolutely buttblasted imbecile. He's just gonna retort that you're seething over and over again even though the bullshit he says isn't changing anybody's mind. And it's definitely some pathetic, obsessive behavior to constantly repeat the same rhetoric every single thread and then try to tell us we're the ones who are mad lol

could some mister shills explain to me how is mister better than running MAME on my pc?

>>7828334
>System 16 games
Didn't even know those were in the works, thats cool

>>7828346
Perhaps you should have worded that without using 'shill' so as to not automatically out yourself as a troll.

>>7828361
Again, stop fucking responding to him you moron. He lives for (You)s

>>7828361
anon you don't need to reply if you're not a shill
I'm looking for genuine mister marketers that without a doubt lurk in these threads

>>7825403
>pay $600 to play 16-bit games
You guys are all fucking retarded

>>7828403
Stop being poor.

>>7828431
>you're poor if you don't pay $600 to play 16-bit games
I have a bunch of physical games that I had accumulated over the years. Unlike poor zoomers, I'm able to play on real hardware.

>>7828403
Every thread this goes up $100
Take your meds you schizoid fuck.

>>7825403
Not sure why my post was deleted, but I knew that it was on topic and not a "troll" post. So again I will say that I will not buy a MiSTer simply because it only emulates up to 4th gen consoles and that it's a waste of money. My PC can do way more emulation and do it better.

>>7828440
Post a picture of your complete Neo Geo coomlection. After that you can post a pic of your complete SNES coomlection. Then you can post a pic of your complete Genesis coomlection. After you have done all of that, you can post pics of 5 other complete coomlections and you still won't have what cost me less than $200, but you will still rage about $600 like some kind of pauper.

>>7828446
your post was deleted because a soÿboy wouldn't be worried his wife was hanging out with tyrone

>>7828449
It's flawed thinking anyways. I've got 54 Neo Geo homecarts and 60 MVS carts. But I also own a MiSTer and play Neo Geo games on it, too. It's just another option for retro gaming and the unmedicated sperglords just can't accept that they're too autistic for any level of critical thinking.

Why waste $350 on a device that can only emulate up to 4th gen consoles? I rather do my emulation on the PC.

>>7828449
>muh complete neo geo coomlection
You only play Metal Slug and a couple fighting games.
You misterfags are just glorified emufags. You scroll through a giant collection of games but you don't ever intend on playing them all.
In fact, you probably don't complete any game at all. You only like to tinker around with filters and then post on /vr/ in MiSTer General so you feel better about spending $600 on a 16-bit emulation box.

>>7828461
These people don't own a single piece of hardware. They are seething retards who grew up emulating on pentium potatoes and have no reference for comparison. They don't know what they don't know.

>>7825403
Janny is a pedo.

>>7828475
>don't own a single piece of hardware
I own a PC which I use to emulate games, forgoing the need for a MISTer

>>7828475
>don't own a single piece of hardware
I own consoles and games that I grew up with. I understand that you're a zoomer who missed out on the golden age of cheap retro vidya games, but you don't have to take it out on us.

>>7828486
How much did you spend on your PC and are you going to pretend that you also use it to trade stocks and design nextgen aerofoils?

>>7828495
Your Nintendo Switch doesn't count.

>>7828506
>I-I-I-swear that I actually play the whole neo geo library on my MiSTer... I'm only spending time shitposting instead of playing with my $600 emulation box because... uhhh...

>>7828506
>How much did you spend on your PC
why is this relevant?

A new microcomputer core, and apparently this one is for /m/.
Bandai RX-78
https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/RX-78_MiSTer

>>7828474
If you had any life outside of shitposting here you'd get to play games like us MiSTer Chads. Shame, but it seems like you're too far gone.

>>7828549
oh I get it, I need to shell out six hundred dollars for a glorified raspberry pi so I can be a "chad" like you right?

>>7828519
It's a simple question, answer it or don't.

>>7828564
Nah, you need to get out of your delusional world where you make up artificial barriers to doing things and then blaming everyone else around you for being a miserable piece of shit who needs to constantly shitpost contrarian nonsense for (you)s and validation.

Us Chads play retro games. Doesn't matter how, but this thread is about our particular choice in doing so. Your responses are only about how to not play retro games.

>>7828572
let me guess, if I say a small number you'll call me poor, if I say a big number you'll ask why can't I buy a mister
so let me ask you (again), why do I need a mister if I can emulate arcade games on a PC
simple question

>>7828584
I play retro games on a PC

>>7828519
Go shit your pants somewhere else, kid.

>>7828618
you're not very good at this

>>7828625
I'm not him, you fucking retard.

>>7828629
yes, I know there's multiple shills ITT

>>7828631
Take your meds, schizo.

>>7828526
Thing is only really remembered because of the Gundam references, its obscure even in Japan.

>>7828779
Well, it can't be worse than Mattel Aquarius.

>>7827752
>>7828007
wasn't community-drama but issues with the other person working on the psx-core.

>>7828842
Keyboard looks about as bad.

>>7828882
RX-78 wins by having dedicated arrow keys. Aquarius relied on Intellivision-style overlays which make playing the games nowadays on a modern keyboard a pain in the ass, having to guess what keys move the character.

>>7828908
Can't argue with that. I think, unbelievably, that the Aquarius may actually have more software though.

I want to try to make pic related work as a MiSTer case, it kind of has that "90's console" vibe to it.

I'm a total retard when it comes to anything DIY though, especially with electronics. How would I connect the power supply to whatever the connector the DE-10 Nano uses is called, and without frying the thing?

>>7828909
Yeah, by some miracle Aquarius wins in quantity. I guess RX was a locked first party-only system, like SG-1000 was initially. There's also barely any game dumps online. Creator of the core uploaded some roms adapted for MiSTer to Internet Archive, whopping 10 games plus BASIC.

>>7828526
based

I’ve already played all these console games to death. But I never played any of the old computer stuff that mister has. What are the top 20 games on the computer side? What about coop stuff?

>>7828959
It depends, is this a PC case? Does it come with an internal power supply?

>>7828959
>>7829769

Nevermind I looked it up.

You can just use one of these ATX breakout adapters. They supply a 5v out line. So from there you'd just rip the male end of a 2.5mm barrel plug (you could just rip it from the ac adapter that comes with the DE-10 but these things aren't expensive) and connect the power and ground cables from that into the adapter.

>>7829776
Of course then there's the matter of getting the MiSTer to actually turn on using the case's power button. The PC case most likely uses a momentary switch, so you'd need a latching flipflop adapter board.

I used this relay -https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005001803622896.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.2dc9b90a2ywFus and it worked pretty well.

So what you'd to here is, get two strips of wire to plug the Input jacks from the relay into the ATX 5v out, and then plug's cable on the Relay's Output, which will plug into the DE-10 Nano.

You wouldn't require any soldering for this, as the relay uses screws. Here's a pic of the case I did.

>>7825503
I heard those Digimon games were fun.

>>7826929
Any ideas on when that will happen? Will it require writing entirely new cores for new hardware or is it a relatively simple translation process since it's in Verilog and maybe you just write a new backend to it to compile to the new hardware?

>>7825403
waiting until the tech becomes priced reasonably.

>>7830248
>priced reasonably
All in it was like 120 bucks for a mister with the SD card and everything? shit dude, how much more reasonable can you get. Or is the global chip shortage fucking with this too.

>>7830259
>$120

>>7830268
Just because you're retarded enough to buy a prebuilt PC doesn't mean the dudes who buy superior parts for a fraction of the price and build it themselves like lego are equally stupid.

You could argue this metaphor falls down a little because of the current scalping going on with graphics cards, but buying a prebuilt attracts even more of a premium because they're fed by the same stymied supply chains, so it's still valid.

>AUD
Stop making us look stupid, please.

>>7830293
The Seller is Australian, not me. Also, you CAN'T build this yourself. They claim it's open source but don't give you the details unless you want to become a seller. What kind of bullshit is that?

>>7830297
>Also, you CAN'T build this yourself
what are you talking about?

>>7830303
look on the github instead of just parroting "open-source based!!!" it claims to be open source, but the instructions to build it are locked and you have to message them that you're gonna become a seller to get them.

>>7830305
what are you talking about seriously
>https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Main_MiSTer/wiki/Setup-Guide

>>7830297
>>7830305
The MiSTer platform is built around a DE10 Nano. Which is an educational tool you can buy one from major electronic sales companies like the manufacturer Terasic, or Mauser, or Digikey, et al.
The add-on boards are open source, which you can absolutely build yourself if you want to mint a PCB and order the individual parts. Or just buy one off a random dude on aliexpress for less.

Total cost is like half the price you quoted from the eBay scalper. And that's only because you waited until the silicon shortage affected the price of the DE10 units. I got my mainboard for $105.

I think you're the one using inspect element anon, based on your broken grammar and lack of capitalisation in all your posts.

>>7830347
nah man it's totally you

>7830348
Okay, so by your lack of ability to accept contrary viewpoints and/or evidence of such, I can deduce you're either a troll, a moron, schizo, or some kind of befuddled third-worlder that has managed to get himself IP blocked from github. Either way your opinions don't matter, so you should stop wasting everyone's time and kindly go fall down some steps.

If only there was a website that hosted videos of MiSTer build guides...

>>7830798
shit, you can just buy prebuilt MiSTers

>>7830802
Or you can build one yourself for <$200.

>>7830297
You're trolling, right? No one could actually be this stupid. Could they?

>>7828334
Why not just wait until the emulator can run all the games and make it all in one? Its a bit of an odd thing in mister having to reload the entire core again if you want to change a game.

>>7830798
>video-guides
leave

>>7830952
>your opinion
Discarded.

Fuck all of you shill fags, your shit is on the level of the Soulja boy console and chink handhelds, kill yourselves and stop making me read this shit, God damn, hiding thread now.

>>7828474
Meh in total ive spent about 500 but thats cause i like bluetooth controllers and a nice case. but i actually played through Rad Racer and Mighty final fight tonight, also a couple playthroughs on MSHvSF. yeah its expensive, but honestly i like it. and it doesnt feel like shit like pies or classic consoles. the CPS2 core is the real mvp.

Anyone know how a fella might go about getting him some of them SGB borders?

In total I spent $150 on building my MiSTer with the student discount and chink parts.

>>7831174
All the cores are worth it to be honest, it's hard to have something more cycle accurate than the cores on MISTer, I've seen many video comparing with og hardware, speed always match frame by frame, if you add the low latency + how versatile it is in term of output/input options, it's the best purchase you can make as a retro enthusiast.

Even the most purists that only swear with og hardware has been convinced by what MISTer is able to do after trying it.
Haters here can hate all they want, MISTer has already a solid reputation, they will not convince anyone.

>>7831734
Wait what ? You want all the SGB borders ? I think there is a complete pack on archive.org

I’m pretty retarded when it comes to this kind of stuff, but when it come to FPGA it’s essentially the same as Analogue’s products correct? I just load shit off the SD card and we’re good to go? Also, is there any input lag or is it like playing on actual hardware?

Thanks anons!

>>7832369
>I think there is a complete pack on archive.org
/details/mister-sgb-borders
Got it.
Thanks.

>>7833330
Yeah at this point its pretty simple, just flash this image to a SD card https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/Mr-fusion then configure your internet settings or just plug in a ethernet cable and run the update script. After that you can just load roms through ftp or samba or whatever, maybe remember to update once in a while and that's it.

Okay the space-invaders esque Gundam game on the RX78 is really fun and it plays Tobe Gundamu on the game over screen :P

>>7830975
Not that guy but a lot of the videos are outdated, getting a MiSTer up and running is way easier now, you just need to flash an image and add update_all.sh and you're basically done (besides controller binding)

>>7833869
CRT output on my end is completely busted for RX-78. I can't even open the system menu. I guess it is not finished yet.

I'm curious about the Wonderswan beta core, but I don't know any games for the system. Anything worth checking out?

>>7832369
You ain't wrong, my guy.

>>7827752
>the primary developer has apparently quit due to community drama


what happened?

>>7837283
Like another person posted it wasn't community-drama but issues he had with the guy he was working with on the project. We don't really know what happened because Laxer3a just said "fuck this" and both him and ultraembedded posted all the work they had done and fucked off

>>7837283
Two guys working on PS1 core could not agree on their team work and told each other to fuck off. As such the project is currently on hold.
Meanwhile srg320 keeps working alone on the Saturn core, without constant hyping and big personalities involved.
