So he just gave up, on region lock removal? Damn. So much for wanting free region free mods, now we have to spend $80 to have region free. Damn.
You don't miss a lot of games anyway. Most japanese obscure games require to be able to read japanese to fully enjoy them and people who read japanese often directly buy a japanese system (that's what I did) so they don't really have this problem.
Actually, in USA, Gateway lowest price seems to be 65 bucks by the way).
But we're off-topic so let's back to BlargSnes discussion.
I don't even think StapleButter have a Cubic Ninja to try/test that by the way. Except if things changed, last time he was saying he was doing tests with a gateway.
Help it in which way? Can you develop?
Maybe the extra processing power would help with emulating special chips, or to allow rewinding ? And what about layer-based 3D effect ?
I know I'd be glad to play Starfox in 3D ! Probably seems a bit crazy even to StapleButter right now, but who knows, blargSNES could possibly become a full-fledged glitch-free emulator in the future.
Plus... who'd refuse extra power anyhow ?
Well, the only real SNES emulator that is near perfection which low-level emulation of all chips is Higan, and it require a 3Ghz PC processor.
Emulating chips on 3DS is, in my opinion, a dream a bit too big (except for DSP which seem to be the easiest to do).
Can't you just use a copy of cubic ninja on a gateway 3ds to get the same results as using the actual game?Never said it was garbage, but if you check twitter, you can see some of those who was using it updated to keep playing their games (Pokemon or Smash Bros) so it's just the reality to assume most of people who are on 9.2 will switch on using a gateway instead for homebrew, even more if it has emunand (which will won't block their future game updates). Not to mention "Cubic Ninja" now cost near as much as a gateway. Even the creator of Ninjhax don't really have plans to support it in higher firmwares as he said himself.

He even seemed to have gave up on it's project to make a region-free mod, now that the gateway exploit have been announced, refering to his lasts tweets about it.
I know a bit how much work you have to put in an emulator as I'm myself a romhacker/translator (you can find my lastest translation here : http://www.romhacking.net/translations/2301/ not the same nickname but I can be pmed there to check if I'm the same guy, gbatemp account have my brother nickname) and where you are, you often have to use debug functions/follow emulators developpement/etc... (though the PS2 translation was done without any debuggeur as there is no working debugger for PCSX2, the one we had was just crashing near all the time...) though, I don't understand your point. Never said my opinion was an absolute truth, it's just my opinion and StapleButter is free to do what he wants.
So if someone don't know anything about emulators, he shouldn't talk at all? That's the old debate of elite who say for example you can't make a movie critic if you are a movie director, which is a fucking retarded point (but well, what could I except more for someone who is an anti-GW and try to bash every people who refer to it? Not the first time, not the last time).
Anyway, I'm curious to see how it might give a big speedup for SNES emulation when most games already seems to run at the right speed.
If "useless = garbage" for you, then I understand your message but in my dictionnary, "useless =/ garbare". A really good thing can become useless become something else appeared, without making the old thing "garbare".
