What am I doing wrong? I have all my nes roms in a folder on my sd. When I try to load content it just freezes for a long time (like over a minute) then sometimes it will finally show the files. What can I do to speed this up. It is very annoying.

@brienj I just tried out the forwarder, though it seems to automatically load the FCEUmm core. Seemingly not allowing me to choose anything else. Any insight?
EDIT: Sorry for double post. Though someone else would have posted by now.
EDIT2: I suppose it was just due it being an older core. 1.4.1 solved the issue. 1.5.0 does not even boot seemingly

I spilt up the folders into about 1---150 roms each and it loads quick. Why would it not load when there was over 700 roms in the folder?
Like I mentioned, perhaps it's the read speed on your SD. A faster SD will likely do the trick. I can load up any of my folders instantly. SNES folder has nearly 1000, though has no hesitation to open.
nestopia, quicknes is trash unless your device using it is a potato
Hi, PS2 not even in a million years, the PS1 is still a possibility but not coming anytime soon, in all honestly, I don't think it will ever happen.

Seconded
Snes - Snes9x
NES - Nestopia
GBA - mGBA
And so on, VBA, Snes9x 2010/2005, QuickNES should be avoided as they have very low accuracy and the Wii U can do much better than what those cores offer.
Good thanks.
Another quick question:
Is there any way to play games like Duck Hunt?
By the way I remember another game where you had to shoot bandits but avoid hostages. Does anyone know what this game is called?
There's still people that use ZSNES on PC
That's why giving options is a nice thing. You get even more people happy.

Zsnes is the IE6 of Snes emulators (It can't even play Earthworm Jim 2 with sound effects, they're missing
), people can simply remove the cores from the core directory to clean it up a bit, that's what I did, so I don't accidentally use a core I didn't want to use

No, it's a virtual machine, not emulated; Nintendont is the name, 100% compatibility.
My bad, thanks !

I've saw this file on the cores folder : mednafen_psx_libretro.rpx, is it a VM ?

No, it's just under-optimized for the time being. All we can do is wait.

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
