Realistically are recomps better than just emulating?
>>
>need emulator and rom to play a recom
At this point i just emulate. Or at least emulate for as long as there isn't any nice mod to play with
>>
There's a lot more frame rate unlocks to recomps than to emulated games.

They absolutely can be, but Wiseguy pretty much leaving the scene has basically fucked over most of the advantages they were going to have and left the whole thing to be taken over by lower quality recomps with less ambition.

Conversely, Harbor Master's decomps have now massively overtaken recomps in terms of what they actually offer and how much good shit can be done with them, which is almost a reversal of the direction things were going just a few months ago. They're quickly going to overshadow even ROMhacks at the rate things are going now.

Completely depends on your needs and if the recomp actually does things the emulator (and maybe a romhack) won't.

They're obviously designed like that so the project owner won't be held accountable for piracy.

Wait wiseguy left? Damn so much for the OOT recomp, was hoping for as many mods as the MM one. Guess it doesn't surprise me though seeing how the scene has gone.

It's seems to be great for some zelda games because you can rewrite controls or use more buttons on controller.
On ayn thor you can get recomps that handle 2 screens so second screen shows inventory or map. But on average emulators is still nicer to have around as not every game will get recomp anytime soon.

Definitely. I was never into emulator enhancements but now I actively wait for recomps to play older games. It's hard to resist the silky smooth framerate, controls and resolution.

I recently played SoH, Perfect Dark, Goemon, Banjo Kazooie and Dusklight. I'm really eager to play the Goldeneye recomp, which is just around the corner.

>Kong-pilled
What would that entail?
>>
Are we ever getting Jet force gemini and Banjo tooie?
at this point it's the only ones i still care about.
Especially JFG.
>>
>>746702416
No save states
No retroachievements
No fast forward
No platform agnostic compatibility

That's a no from me bud
>>
I misread that as Rekong-pilled.
