emu on PSP (megadrive , neogeo)

[PC-Engine]

Has a scientific calculator emulation been done with a touch screen for the buttons and another screen for the display?

And here is where, I suppose, you will have to inform us how a device with two screens (~100k pixels)--half of them touch--is inherently better or rather "more clever" than doing it on, say, one screen that's 320x320 (also ~100k) and all touch. Or 320x480. (Or heck, there are 640x480 screens at this point, I think.)

With the DS, you could independently tilt the top screen. On a single screen you'd have to tilt the whole unit. With a graphing calculator it becomes even more unique.

PC-Engine really is the most rabid Nintendo f@nboy I've ever seen, and I've seen a quite a few in my time.

Sorry to interrupt, but what exactly is being argued here?

Why did this NeoGeo/Genesis EMU thread become about calculators?

 

[hey69]

because somebody poop on it
in the meantime. xsnes version 0.05 has been released with some minor fixes.
xmame is at the moment only playable on the windows psp emulotor
so expect soon some new working release

Because somebody had to bring up DS vs PSP emulation for whatever reaons.

Still don't see what that has to do with calculators but anyway...

It's one of them calculas/trigonometry things, it's very advanced and involves funky calculation you and I have never dreamed of.

Doing graphs? Who cares? A PC can do a lot of things, so what? Do you even know what you're arguing?

OTOH if they could make an HP graphing calculator emulator for the DS, that would be even cooler. 8)

Lol. You contradict yourself in the same post. 'Who cares about doing graphs?' but then you ponder about how cool 'a graphing calculator' emulator on the DS would be. Seems to me that you're doing a good job of arguing with yourself.

That sounds really stupid. A TI-85 doesn't have mic.

Lol. So the point is to recreate what we had before but NOT improve on it. Sounds like a plan!

You don't click on buttons Sherlock. You push them with your fingers just like on a standalone calculator.

W00t! That's sure VERY interesting! Rock on! Let me know how you like Slide Rule junkies 2.0.

Where did I claim DS needs to emulate other consoles LMAO?

I never did claim that silly. I said that if the situations were reversed you'd be singing a different tune. But at least this time it would make sense. That is, IF these emulators were on the DS and IF the PSP only had a Scientific Calculator, you'd be laughing at the PSP and bowing down to the DS. But at least you'd be making sense.

PSP still doesn't have a touchscreen so no amount of horsepower or spinning is going to change that.

And the DS doesn't have any of these emulators and no amount of touchscreen is going to change that.

Well ironically it's these opinions that you can't accept.

Not when they're completely nonsensical. The Calculator gets points for novelty but that's it. At least if there was an app that could control your home (via X10 in your PC or perhaps even standalone module) then that would score even more points. Or perhaps one that you could use to control your HT equipment (again, via another module that converted RF to IR). That too would be more useful AND cooler. But to argue a nerdy Scientific Calculator over all of those consoles being emulated is bonkers.

The point wasn't about usefulness. The point was about the uniqueness of the emulation being performed. Console emulation isn't unique. It's OLD get it?

You never said once about "uniqueness". Changing the goal line? And if so, remember this, that you are saying uniqueness = cool because we sure will.

BTW looking back at this thread it seems YOU were the one to start comparing DS emulation with PSP. Nice going SHERLOCK.

And you were the one to start trolling! Lol Sherlock!

Get back to me when you can spin out of that one.

This soon enough?

PC-Engine really is the most rabid Nintendo f@nboy I've ever seen, and I've seen a quite a few in my time.

It's not Pro-Nintendo. It's plain Anti-Sony. Anything that could used as leverage against Sony = teh winnar for him. Very transparent.

 

[Kitsune]

Really if Sony wanted they could create a usb touch screen overlay
which is like the screen armor and sell it as an add on. Digitizers are not really that expensive and maybe can be bundled with a game.

here it comes

doom for PSP

[digitalwanderer]

Well I think that is almost as cool as a scientific calculator with seperate touchscreen buttons.

You kidding? That can't even tell me what 8x92+2.9^4 is!!

Til...ting? That's all you could come up with? Got it. Quite the clever innovation.

You just don't get it... It's a next generation type of tilting. A tilting that has never been done before. EVER.

Tilting has always been underestimated, but from now on people will look at this tilting system and they will tremble before its power.

What could you want more? Next gen tilting, calculator... doesn't get much better than this my friend.

Not true, I heard they're working on a double-hinge USB attachment for the PSP.

You actually think I would be stupid enough to contradict myself? You fell right for the bait hook, line, and sinker Sherlock. There's nothing special about a PC emulating a calculator with graphing functions. The cleverness/uniqueness comes from emulating the calculator with a portable that has one screen for the graphing functions and another touch screen for the virtual buttons. Apparently you dug yourself into a hole that you can't climb out of, scrambling for examples to only come up with PC emulation that uses a boring mouse and stupid computer monitor to emulate a calculator....LMAO. Do you see anybody carrying around a PC as a calculator? You're hopeless.

It's called TI-85 emulation for a reason Sherlock. Maybe you'd rather it be called TI-2010?

W00t! That's sure VERY interesting! Rock on! Let me know how you like Slide Rule junkies 2.0.

Actually an Abacus using the touch screen would be pretty cool and unique.

I never did claim that silly. I said that if the situations were reversed you'd be singing a different tune. But at least this time it would make sense. That is, IF these emulators were on the DS and IF the PSP only had a Scientific Calculator, you'd be laughing at the PSP and bowing down to the DS. But at least you'd be making sense.

The situation cannot be reversed because PSP doesn't have touch screen so the IF doesn't even apply here. You didn't see me using IFs did you? You know why?

And the DS doesn't have any of these emulators and no amount of touchscreen is going to change that.

Why would it need to when it already wins in the cleverness/uniqueness category? Console emulation is OLD NEWS get it?

Not when they're completely nonsensical.

LMAO...you're hopeless man.

At least if there was an app that could control your home (via X10 in your PC or perhaps even standalone module) then that would score even more points.

But to argue a nerdy Scientific Calculator over all of those consoles being emulated is bonkers.

That's just stupid man. Adding on various MODULES to do emulation of a remote control is just DUMB. That's just missing the whole point of emulation and bordering on stupid since a DS would only be a single part of the whole emulation system.

You never said once about "uniqueness". Changing the goal line? And if so, remember this, that you are saying uniqueness = cool because we sure will.

Actually I said it was clever which it is and it's also unique. Clever is cool in my book.

And you were the one to start trolling! Lol Sherlock!

Trolling, what was I trolling about?

Really if Sony wanted they could create a usb touch screen overlay
which is like the screen armor and sell it as an add on. Digitizers are not really that expensive and maybe can be bundled with a game.

Well that's just plain stupid. The uniqueness and cleverness comes from emulating with what's been given to you in the form of a DS, not what you can do with dumbass addons ie WiFi to IR modules.

Actually my friend does, but he calls it a l-a-p-t-o-p.

But aside from that I reckon your logic is just inarguable and you've pierced us all with your rapier sharp wit and verbal skills, colour me impressed and properly shamed by your enlightening outburst.

Ooooh look, I can use this laptop with built-in keyboard to emulate a TI-85 calculator's keypad!!! Maybe we should all use batteries to emulate electric power!!!

Again you cut me to the quick with your nimble wit exposing the flaw in my argument and making me look quite the loon.

I am aghast, and again humbled.....your victory is now complete.

mech:

The difference is that the PSP actually has the grunt to run these emulators

That's not a new thing. The MBX Lite powered Dell Axim x50v has been running emulators like PocketSNES.
