yeah, it's pretty awesome. i'm glad someone was able to salvage everything off of these discs and make it run modern hardware.

I love emulation ever since I was a kid and I hope it never dies.

no chance of that happening

SCOTUS restricting unofficial emus sounds not probable but possible

that'd be nice but there's no need. if we used nintendo as an example, they have been fighting against emulators for over 20 years, got nowhere. it's much easier for them to use/abuse the dmca instead to target github accounts. it's like low hanging fruit. microsoft will always buckle but the old owners didn't. the emulators still exist, so does the code. it's like pushing diarrhea uphill with a stick. something needs to be done so such projects based on reverse engineering are left alone - no matter if they are able to pirated software or not. it's a shitty situation.

I'm waiting for a github alternative for emus to gather steam, it feels like a ticking time bomb

Should I use a CRT filter with native resolution or increase the internal resolution when emulating PS2 games? I can't decide.

The only thing to disscuss is how lazy and retarded current gens are.
>check current megadrive game.
>seems like a cool game.
>before that boomers cracked their 2 previous games
>nugens say they are going to get the game working.
>make a whole new emu for that game, then make another whole new emu for other game.
>but muuhh you shon't understand, cracking the rom will ruin it forever since it ishn't original copy, and it has an audio chip to give it CD audio quaility.
>game audio is the same as any megadrive game and the chip is just excuses to not do the job.
Emulation is dead currently and nothing will change it.
Still waiting those roms cracks of paprium, earthion, the secret of the four winds, the last one shouldn't be dificcult since life on earth and life on mars by same developer got the roms cracked even the switch megadrive game exclusive xiapmei got dumped and cracked.

Is easier to change code on emu the cracking a game.

I was surprised to learn how dependent on per game hacks emulation still is
