I wanna know if is there possible, specially about Genesis Plus DX (it has SEGA CD emulation AND resolution selection - may be better than JenesisDS). Seems it was developed with LiboGC and i guess if could be ported to LibARM NOR DSTWO SDK.

I'm not used on low level programming, so...

The DS is not that powerful to handle Sega CD game, nor even the 3DS, so no.
Even being just Genesis (JenesisDS lets the screen quite weirdo), chopping Sega CD related functions, it stills not?

Sometime ago i did read about a port of PicoDriveDS for DS2+ (based on a PicoDrive Dingux version)... Is also another possibility, but i'd never found a proper release!

Genesis Plus is for PPC hardware, Picodrive in the other hand is arm assembly, so Picodrive is much more better option the Genesis Plus.

A fork of Genesis Plus GX ported to GCW0 (seems to has a very near architecture to ARM and to Dingoo itself): http://boards.dingoonity.org/gcw-releases/genesis-plus-gx/

Also, PicoDrive for Dingoo stills in development at it's GitHub ( https://github.com/notaz/picodrive/ )... If the problem is the architecture, why not to compile an uptodate version? (to compile it is just donwloading and compiling with DevKitPRO/DS2-SDK? I guess not, and is where i need atleast some orientation...)

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)

    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
