I have a psvita tv with enso and trying to play the adventures of lolo 2 (Japanese version)
on retroarch.

I've got several version of the rom and tried to run it with all 3 different nes cores that retro-arch comes with.
Retroarch was able to find it via scanning , but every time I try to launch the game my system crashes.

Thanks for an pointers.

NES core shouldn't require a bios, no. None of the Nintendo cores should. Tried redownloading Retroarch, it could be a corrupt installation?

If anything they require famicom disk system bios. How recent is the build of retroarch you are using? Despite the differences between versions have you tried the usa release of adventures of lolo 2? Also if you have adrenaline installed on your ps vita you can use the nes/famicom emulator called nesterj.

I believe I have the latest version.
I now have the disksys.rom , I made it into a zip and put it next to my nes rom and it's still not working.

I have adrenaline, are you saying nesterj is the way to go?

    Thing is , the videos work fine in the Edge Dev and Canary builds. But whatever the fix they made was, has never been pushed to Beta or Stable builds. Its been that way for as far back as I tested. Which was Edge 84. They are on 125 now.

    @RedColoredStars, Yeah, and I was in quite a mood at that time. I would consider choosing Firefox or Opera instead, been using Firefox for over 7 years now than Chrome.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Tried contacting Nintendo to see if they can reach out to MS about it. But Nintendo said the videos are working fine. Without enough people saying no, they don't work fine, it will never get fixed.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    I have Firefox and used it for many years. But Edge runs noticible faster on my pc at both opening and loading pages.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    I don't think Nintendo will know anything about troubleshooting Edge. They mostly do technical support regarding their console family.

    Tell them you downloaded their trailer without permission

    Good one, Ken.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Right. But they could create a ticket that gets forwarded to the proper team. I think Nintendo would care that their videos aren't working on a major browser

    LOL K3N. HAHAH!

    Chrome is like "BRRRRRRRR" but I dislike the fact it's a powerhouse, and the fact that Manifest v3 exists
