classics Posted December 28, 2005 Share Posted December 28, 2005 Of course you do! 989981[/snapback] Can that do full speed emulation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted December 28, 2005 Author Share Posted December 28, 2005 (edited) Can that do full speed emulation? 989989[/snapback] Offhand I'd have to say yes. Or very close to it at this point. Music is a tad slow it seems, but the action seems quite full speed. If it's not I'm sure it will be soon enough. It has a killer MAME port now that supports something like 900 sets. And I just played a game of Commando at full speed I also played Blue Max and Archon II and it was good. Very Good Here's the link to the GP2X a800 port Edited December 28, 2005 by remowilliams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eobet Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I was interested in this for awhile, but I was put off by the fact that the joystick wasn't analogue (why have a joystick instead of a d-pad if you're not going to make it analogue?). But I'm soon getting a Windows Mobile 5 device, and I do hope that I can get The Dungeon running on that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Zodiac had an analog stick and people complained that it wasn't digital. What emulator do you plan on using with WM5? AFAIK the only A8 emulator on PPC/WM was abandoned ages ago.

eobet Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 It's one of those things where you can't please everyone. The Zodiac had an analog stick and people complained that it wasn't digital. That's amazingly stupid of people, then, since an analogue stick can be set to act as a digital one, but you can't do it the other way around (especially if you have a d-pad). What emulator do you plan on using with WM5? AFAIK the only A8 emulator on PPC/WM was abandoned ages ago. 991819[/snapback] Damn, is that so? I didn't know since the device I want isn't out yet, so I haven't really begun looking around for programs I want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eobet Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I just did a Google and it seems that the Atari800 emulator has a WindowCE port... http://atari800.sourceforge.net/ I will probably be testing this when I get my device (which incidentally will be a Qtek S200 or Dopod 818 Pro, which are both HTC Prophets anyway... and that sentence will probably only make sense to PocketPC fans, but anyway).

Pocket Atari a.k.a. the long abandoned project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eobet Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Well, the date of the files says 2005-12-31 and it's the second latest release (the very latest is just a few days old, but doesn't have a WinCE compile yet, it seems)... but I don't have a device to test it with yet so I don't know...

Cool. I'll have to check it out. Though since my current PPC has the same type (read crappy) of gaming controls as all the others, I think the GP2X is going to remain my best bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
