    ROM Hack Kazo's Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver Translation

    Hmm I downloaded the patch with Rudolph's anti-piracy and Kazo's english patch, but for some reason my ROM still freezes every time a wild pokemon uses a move that lowers my stats, or every time I defeat a wild pokemon, anybody know how to fix this? :\

    ROM Hack Magnius's Pokemon Soul Silver Translation

    Hey, umm just wandering if anyone knows how to solve this? I got a call (I guess from Elm) after I delivered the item he told me to deliver, but then it said, the ROM Image has crashed or something, and the emulator closes, is there anyway to fix this? I heard you need a BIOS or something. :S

    ROM Hack xDeltaGUI 0KB

    Okay I followed the instructions and kept xDeltaGUI open for about 30 minutes lol but it's still 0KB, maybe because the ROM isn't 131MB? Does that really matter? Hmm... I've tried several times. EDIT: Nevermind it worked - thanks a lot guys.

    ROM Hack xDeltaGUI 0KB

    Hello, well I've been having a problem with patching my files. I'm trying to patch Magnius' HG translation english patch, and I followed the instructions for the xdeltaGUI. However when I try to patch it correctly, it says 0KB, yes I've waited for an exceedingly long time but it still says 0KB...

    Retro handhelds aren't really hiding the fact they're just phones with a D-pad. It's all the same SOC, just with different applications.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Exactly. That's what I'm at least trying to point out.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the high-end SOCs are still expensive so they tend to use older stuff, leftover stock and so on.

    So KTR is asking, will you guys spring for the Snapdragon,
    or should we get some older cheaper chipset.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably thought to themselves that the latter would be the better option. Not only to make them easily affordable to produce and buy, but to retain the same performance to competitors.

    After all, SoC is the same ones used in Android phones that were made for gaming.

    Gen2 is obsolete and probably can get bulk for cheap

    In the same way that a Raspberry Pi costs 30 dollars but a project involving a RPi costs at least $100, CPUs are cheap, everything else is a bitch.

    3d printing and repurposed screens got cheap so we get neat little devices out of last year's tech it's still a neat way to recycle

    It went from involving nerds with degrees to buying little Jim's after school project

    Yeah I think I spent like close to 300 all in on my Pi5 setup buuutttt depending on how you look at it that is super cheap, like per game or all the "Mini" consoles you would have to buy to get something close to it.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I just divided 5000 by 300 works out to 16.666666 cents per game lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but some of those games aren't worth that much. I hope the others make up for it. :P
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you own no other devices and can find something that does up to switch for 300 the price makes up for it just for that then again a complete genesis can go for around 150 not including games
  • Veho @ Veho:
    The Switch is the next big milestone.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah when Adreno 780m is more common on devices imo
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Or 680 iirc
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's interesting, you can get up to PSX with a $50 device, but if you want PS2/GC and so on, it's $150 minimum but $200 to be sure, and those devices can already play Switch.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Still better than 350 on a actual switch I'll take a few frame drops
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I'm not disagreeing. It's just weird that if you can get PSX for $50, and Switch for $200, why can't you get PS2 for $100?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Emulation is weird.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean just take the fact SNES still isn't perfectly emulated.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ram chips are probably like $20 per 8gb?
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Dunno.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Is RAM the bottleneck?
