DOOM has been ported to the retro game console in Persona 5 Royal



DOOM is well-known for being ported to basically every device with some kind of input, and that list now includes the old retro game console in Persona 5 Royal. Modders KingJackSkellington and Xan1242 released the DOOMsona mod today, that lets you buy the shareware version of the original DOOM at the second-hand store in Yongen-Jaya. DOOM is fully playable and, like the other games Joker can play in his room, will grant the player a social stat upgrade when they're finished (in this case, his guts will increase) and prompt commentary from Morgana before and after playing.

The mod includes the WAD file for the shareware version of Doom, as well as for FreeDOOM and Chex® Quest, a promotional video game released by General Mills in the '90s based on Ultimate Doom. Upon completing the shareware DOOM, which only comes with the first episode, the player can purchase a full copy of Ultimate DOOM from the same store; however, since this game is still being sold commercially, the WAD file isn't included with the mod and the player must provide their own.

DOOMsona also supports any PWAD that is compatible with Chocolate DOOM, a source port of the original DOOM that aims for historical accuracy and adherence to the experience of playing DOOM as it originally released.

That looks like a Famiclone with a PAL SNES cart. Oddly specific.

As you said: A port of DOOM in Persona 5.
You better not take me the wrong way. I know this is a game inside a game, but... WHY? What's the reason of porting it on there?

I would never imagine if they put any of the mainline Pokémon games in there. I hope this doesn't happen.

To see what's possible. Flipper Zero has a DOOM port. Is it any good? No. But impressive? Hell yeah.

The reason is not why, but can it run DOOM? (what if...)

Running DOOM on devices (or in this case: inside other games) that it was never on in the first place is a artform by now. This is exactly also the reason why a lot of people are hyped for Decomp projects.

And they nailed it. Of course there are much better platforms or ways to play DOOM. It's mostly a showcase for what is possible.

Hope that this answers your question.

Actually, I'm pretty much done listening to your babble. DOOM is a game that gets ported so many times and I won't deny that.

But this doesn't mean I enjoy it, not only because I'm bad at FPS games, but... ugh. I don't even wanna tell at this point.

If you don't want to listen, then don't ask stupid questions.

Ask stupid questions get stupid answers is what people say then. Nobody forbids you to dislike a game. That is why sites like metacritic exist.

I gave you answer, you are not happy with that. Fine, but just don't be a dick about it. :teach:

What is next? Doom in Animal Crossing? Or maybe in SSBB or what about Wario Ware or NES Remix? This is impressive on it's own already. Can't wait for the madlads to come up with something else.
Would love more old games in gcn animal crossing

If you're gonna be a dick, then so be it. Go do something else in your time.

Aside from that, I love how a lot of older games are getting ported to later generation consoles, it sheds more light into how capable they are.

That is exactly what i was thinking about when i read this, hench why i quoted it.
That's what I thought as well. Animal Crossing did have some extra goodies like a built-in NES emulator, so perhaps maybe porting Doom to AC would be revolutionary.

    I thought PS4/5 and Xbox One emulation would be kind of easy since they basically just a PC
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    they sorta are a pc
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They haslve dedicated on board chips that aren't tweaked like x64/x32 afaik

    but its a custom os for both of them
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    designed for only specific hardware
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    so you have to learn to emulate that specific hardware which isn't as easy as you'd think
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It's a locked down Linux distro basically
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think the only custom hardware is to do with the SSD and a security chip
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Probably combined in one chip
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They place married security chips onto boards iirc

  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    the ps3 used to support installing linux because the cpu was so powerful
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Then the games are $70 and they want to reboot and refresh the same game every year

    I'm avoiding buying from the big 3 at all atm
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
