I just tested 3 games. These reports are based on initial testing and none of these games were played in full.
These notes about firmware, SD type, HBL version and emulator version apply to all three games:
Firmware: 5.5.4
SD type and Class: SDHC Class 10 (32GB)
Homebrew Launcher Version: 2.1 (Channel)
Emulator Version: 1.5.4-998-g08f26439c
Unless otherwise stated in the
Non-Default Settings section, I used the following non-default settings for my global configuration:
- Auto frameskip on.
- Frameskipping set to 1.
- L and R remapped to ZL and ZR.
- Unthrottle remapped to R.
- Menu mapped to L and Home.
- Confirm button set to Circle.
Without further ado, here are the games I tested, in the order in which I tested them:
DJ Max Portable: Clazzquai Edition
Non-Default Settings: See above.
Issues observed: Outside of the Club Tour mode, the combo and hit grading indicators are garbled, but they appear perfectly in the Club Tour mode.There are some GFX issues with the Gear.In Club TuTo (the tutorial area of the game), the analog stick notes are garbled. However, they appear normally throughout the rest of the game (within the limits of what I played). Overall, the game appears to be fully playable.
DJ Max Portable: Black Square
Non-Default Settings: Frameskipping set to 8.
Issues Observed: As with Clazziquai Edition, the gear-related GFX issues and the garbled combo indicator are still there, however the hit grading indicator is no longer garbled. The button mode descriptions in Arcade mode are garbled and illegible and the Song Select screen garbles after returning there from a song. I could get into a song, but as soon as the background video appeared, the game became unplayably laggy. I didn't test the Club Tour mode. After a while, the screen started to flicker, at which point I stopped testing. Overall, the game is unplayable.
Persona 3 Portable
Non-Default Settings: Cross remapped to A. Circle remapped to B. (The game didn't seem to recognise that I had set Circle as the confirm button and would still use Cross to confirm.)
Issues Observed: None! The game works perfectly!
