It appears I was able to dump the ST-0018 program ROM... amusingly, through the controller port.

The ST-0018 is used by Hayazashi Nidan Morita Shougi 2.
It holds the distinction as the only coprocessor not yet emulated, and the only game not yet playable.
Completing this would give us 100% total compatibility.
[...]
So ... that does it. 100% compatibility with every official game. All of them have been tested. No (known) bugs and no hacks.

I wish the last game was more exciting, but what can you do?

What's interresting about this is that now we know what's inside that game, an ARMv3 chip running at 21mhz (from what I've read), pretty impressive for running a shougi game.

Keep in mind that emulators like ZSNES and SNES9X go for overall compatibility and performance for the most popular titles, whilst BSNES will go for 100% accuracy.

Well, maybe it's because, all the bad ass games got emulated already? Well, either way, um... good job? Now get crackin' with the N64, GC, Wii! -whiplash-

inb4-"These guys don't emulate anything other than SNES, noob!" - It was a joke. XP

Cool I guess, but who's interested in that game? :P
I'll keep using Snes9x anyway since it has more features. I was a long time fan of ZSNES until it got a timing glitch that made Bubsy unplayable that has not been fixed to this day, love that game.
I see no reason to switch to BSNES as long as all the games I have work fine on Snes9x. Also one big advantage of Snes9x is that it's been ported to many platforms, such as Wii and Android.

It's interesting, actually. Some time ago, byuu started working on integrating Super Game Boy emulation, which somehow evolved into GBC and NES support. None of it's anywhere near as accurate as the SNES emulation, as far as I'm aware, but it's interesting nonetheless. Anyways, consider this: with the processing power needed to run bsnes at full-on accuracy, and the step up both in computing and graphics the 3D era saw, would it really be worthwhile at this point to start working at completely accurate N64/GC/Wii emulation?

This is very impressive indeed. I've been following the BSnes message board in the past few weeks and i have to say, these guys are awesome. This is the State of the art of SNES emulation.

    @_Ruri_ is that a good thing? when things are made with men hands in mind they are generally big enough for everyone to use, I wouldn't like to use something with the size of a gameboy micro
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @NinStar, Depends on what you want to use. It's definitely great that I can hold handheld consoles in a comfortable way, the DSi and Gameboy Pocket are the perfect size, never had a micro though so idk. It's a pain though on other stuff like finding a comfortable mouses, there are good mouses on the small side like the Razer Orochi v2 or the Logitech g305 and the Fantech Aria XD7 which are a bit bigger but you have to make a good deal of researches to find them, and they're not the standard anyway. The expensive, competitive mouses are all way too big for my hands so I don't really have any choice if I want to buy more premium mouses for esports or things like that

    Damn I wrote an essay there

    @SylverReZ, Yeah, the thought came to me too lol. I like writing but I never got into making reviews, blog entries and similar stuff. Maybe I could try in the future.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @NinStar, Depends on what is comfortable and right for you. For me, my hands are not the manliest in the world (haha) they're quite small. What comes to mind in terms of handhelds, the most comfortable has to be the 2DS. Not only does the corners not dig into your palms but it's probably my favourite in terms of ergonomics. The buttons are made out of a soft plastic, not too mushy to press, a huge advantage over the 3DS. Doesn't feel too bulky and it could be compared to the DS Lite.
  • D @ DemiV:
    when the xbox series was launching, phil spencer or someone else there did say that targeting smaller hands improved the ergonomics of the controller for more people.
  • D @ DemiV:
    that's phil, though. the guy is always targeting small hands,
    can't go within 500ft of a school.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @SylverReZ, The 2ds is definitely the one people find the most comfortable lol. People with big hands love it and it looks like people with smaller hands love it too. I find holding the normal DS/3DS consoles more comfortable and I prefer their build quality. The 2DS looks smaller when you hold it because you hold onto the whole console, not just the bottom, but it's actually the right size. The problem I have with it though is that the screen is a bit too small and holding the entire console while looking at a just few small screens makes it a bit less practical imho.
