Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

Hey aliaspider, do we need arm to get pico to work?

 

Anyone having any luck with TurboGrafx CD ISO loading via playlist in the XMB UI? I can load them from the ROM folder directly, but only cue files appear there.

I can actually load the cue files to boot games, but ISO loading via playlist crashes RA whether I specify the cue or bin file in the playlist.

 

I can try to test it. I was just playing Kung fu masters on Stella for the past hr....for some reason...

 

So I tested with Fighting Street. Both cores load it normally. (Pce fast and Supergrafx). Using Pce Fast on playlist, it hangs black screen and doesn't freeze just doesn't load (I can hit home button to bring back up the retroarch menu).......but does lock up on Supergrafx as the playlist(have to go hold power on console to turn off console).

 

go for it please we want dosbox xD.

 

I Second That. DOSBox for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

IT'S HAPPENING!! We're two cores in already Thanks @QuarkTheAwesome --- your name fits perfectly lol

 

I tried to port it on Wii long time ago and AFAIK picodrive is hard-coded for little-endian CPUs,thus won't work on WiiU PowerPC unless you make the emulation code portable.

 

by the way not wanting to be pushy but any chance for a touchscreen keyboard for all the cores that use keyboard? imagine the gamepad screen having a digital tuchscreen keybard and you coul use the right analog stick for mouse emulation basicaly making the wiiu the best old pc emulator without needing a keyboard, this would be amazing imo it would be perfect even for anyone that doesnt want to use a keyboard and mouse.

i know dosbox wii had a digital keyboard you could use your wiimote on but wiiu with the gamepad would benefict this mutch better.

 

Maybe QuarkTheAwesome could take a look at it when he is done?

 

Is there any advantage to PicoDrive over Genesis Plus? Curious mostly.

 

32x support mostly

 

Just for 32x games, there is like 3 good games though.

 

I think Pico has 32x support? Gensplus doesnt..

Holy Crap.... 2 ninja's lol

 

Hey, if I thought it was something that could be done, I'd pay a bounty of a good amount for the 3do core to be done for one game (I love twisted the gameshow). But I don't think it even plays on the regular one well if at all. Lol

 

3d0 would play like atari jaguar like 10 fps at best so yeah not worthy, you need a monster pc to have 3d0 fullspeed lol.

 

I thought that was a throwing star that whizzed past my head.

 

Okay, I think I might have got it working? Wii U's out of action, so I can't test, but I think should work well enough...
Dosbox: RPX/ELF

I'm less confident about this one because I had to make some modifications (adding usleep and access) to the RetroArch frontend, it wasn't just a makefile thing on the client side. This is also sans-dynarec, like the PSX core, so keep your expectations low. If you crash with a DSI or an ISI try the ELF version and post that error message (RPX errors aren't that helpful because the addresses change constantly).

 

Thanks, will try
