On-calc Nspire emulators
« on: July 16, 2012, 11:55:54 am »
I feel this strange need to program some sort of game console emulator for the Nspire. But I can't decide which console to emulate. Ideas please?

Atari: like the 2600? That's one I'm thinking about.
SNES: Thinking about this one too.
GBA: Calc84maniac is already porting gpsp...
XBox 360: That would be a nightmare lol

I think SNES is the best choice since SNES has some of the best games in centuries.
Sig wipe!

on the snes it is 1/2 of a megabite

A Genesis/Megadrive emulator could easily run full-speed.

Okay, we have it down to three: the Atari 2600, the SNES, and the Genesis/MegaDrive. I'll set up a poll. I'm personally leaning towards the Genesis since it has a smaller ROM size than the SNES, I think, and I don't have any experience with the Atari 2600.

I really can't decide..... genesis or snes.....
If you have more experience with the genesis, then you should go with it.

I know there are games like Sonic on it .... would be fun to have that on the Nspire :P

Isn't Atari 2600 incredibly hard to emulate due to strange programming, though? I guess maybe you could do SNES, but Super FX and other chip-enhanced games (such as Star Fox, Star Ocean, Stunt Race FX) might be an issue. Likewise with Sega Genesis/Megadrive (the Virtual Racing game comes to mind).

How about the Commodore 64? I've been wanting a Commodore 64 emulator for Nspire for a while, and I think it might be possible.

Hmm... I never considered a C64 emulator... but just like the 2600, I have no experience with it. I'll add it to the poll anyway
