    IRC?

    I registered #gbatemp.net on both IRCHighWay (irc.irchighway.net/6667 *¹) and Libera.Chat (irc.libera.chat:6697 (TLS)). Feel free to join either by clicking one of the links. *1 - The ports supported by IRCHighWay are 6660 to 6669 and 7000. For connections through SSL use port 6697 or 9999.

    IRC?

    @FAST6191 any preferences for a #gbatemp.net channel on an existing server? @Costello your deal with @SIX10 never went through? I'm referring to this.

    When will gbatemp irc be back?

    I think many of the people who were regulars can operate and moderate their own IRC channels. There is no requirement for outside moderation. The primary reason to retain the server is to avoid fracturing the existing community. You can always attempt a repeat of the Freenode server drama. The...

    When will gbatemp irc be back?

    As a user, whenever an IRC server is down the normal response is to wait it out until it reconnects. Sometimes port or domain/address changes are required. And that is exactly what I've been waiting for - for it to reconnect. When you are joining iRC for over a decade this is the normal...

    GCW Zero D-Pad and Button Update

    Most ubiquitous, not best. It is seriously lacking in the SNES emulation department. Thanks to being ubiquitous it enjoyed having one the largest homebrew scenes.

    GCW Zero D-Pad and Button Update

    Ithic.com, Extreme Hardware and Dragonbox.de will probably restock in the future. They are usually sold for around 150 dollar/euro.

    GCW Zero D-Pad and Button Update

    It's a retro styled platformer that requires skilled wall jumping. It shows a lot of promise but it's not yet a finished game. It's included with every GCW Zero.

    GCW Zero D-Pad and Button Update

    If you buy four face buttons each of the four printed ABXY buttons will end up looking something like this: So you'll get 8 buttons, but 4 of them will suffer from a "ridging effect" due to Shapeways not allowing people to specify a print orientation. If you like to mod the buttons, the less...

    Homebrew How accurate are the SNES and GBA emulators on New 3DS?

    As daxtsu mentioned, mGBA uses a test suite that tests various aspects (currently timing only) of hardware. This test suite is far from accurate or complete at the moment, though. @Nebuleon maintained a gpSP fork called TempGBA for the Supercard DSTWO flash card. Which is basically a stripped...

    Handheld Emulators? GCW Zero vs PSP?

    For PSX and PSP games I'd definitely go for a PSP. For anything else, the GCW Zero. SNES emulation on the PSP is very limited due to the weak hardware.
