I was always a N64 kid growing up and I feel like I've mostly neglected the PSX over the years. So lately, I've been going through the PSX library on original hardware (MiSTer FPGA), really trying to experience the full gamut. So far I've beat (with a score from 1-10):>Crash Bandicoot (9)>Crash 2 (8)>Crash 3 (8)>Crash Team Racing (7)>Spyro The Dragon (7.5)>Spyro 2 (7)>Spyro 3 (6.5)>RE1 (6)>RE2 (8.5)>RE3 (7)>Silent Hill (7.5)>Klonoa (5)>Ape Escape (4)>Mega Man Legends (6)>MGS (6.5)>FF7 (6)>MegaMan X4 (8.5)>Ace Combat 2 (7)>Medal of Honor (4.5)>Castlevania SotN (6)>Spider-Man (5.5)>Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (5.5)Dropped (all trash):>Tomba >Rayman>Oddworld>Omega BoostWhat all am I missing? What are some good picks based on what I liked?
I like g police and rogue trip and treasures from the deep and tenchu and bushido blade and ridge racer 4
>original hardware>MiSTer
if you played all those games and thought crash bandicoot was the stand out, I'd recommend quitting videogames and ending your life

>>12912761Glad you are enjoying your emulation setup. Kinda weird to call your emulator of choice original hardware but I guess all hardware is original in a sense.
Dont forget to thank Bernie Stolar
>>12912836MiSTer FPGA is hardware recreation completely identical to the real thing.
>>12912882For what? Killing the Sega Saturn and abandoning the Sega Dreamcast? No thanks.

>>12912892>MiSTer FPGA is hardware recreation completely identical to the real thing.Then why do the cores keep getting accuracy updates? If they're already identical to real hardware, how do updates make them identicaler?
>>12912761beatmaniapopn musicmoon
>>12912930Why does a PS5 get firmware updates? Was the previous PS5 not a real PS5?
>>12912918>he was a founding member of Sony Computer Entertainment America, essential to the launch of the original PlayStation
>>12912942How does that analogy even make sense? The target of an FPGA is a PS1. The target of PS5 updates is whatever the current libraries and security patches are. An update decidedly makes your PS5 console function differently, because that's the point; you still haven't explained why FPGA core updates don't affect the PS1-ness of the PS1 core.
>>12912970As SNES consoles age, it can cause very slight timing differences as the MiSTer allows you to choose actual or real timings, so it's actually more accurate than the real thing. These are basically what's being added in updates.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOPViekdacQpure dopamine hit
>>12912974I was not aware that the PlayStation 1 stack was a rolling release still changing to the present. Thank you for this irrelevant anecdote that doesn't answer the question.
>>12912761PSX is my most emulated system. it's tied with the SNES. i'm always going back and forth between their libraries. the PSX library holds up surprisingly well. i was also a nintendo kid, kind of glad i was because now i've got a practically infinite list of awesome games to play for free.
>>12912974Let's look at those core updates for PS1.>https://github.com/MiSTer-devel/PSX_MiSTer/commits/main/>CD: improve Pause timing accuracy with SPT model>SPU: fix missing reverb on CD audio playback>SPU: add lightweight FIR filter for reverb input (fixes Metal Gear Solid codec sound)>CD: fix Init second response timing (fixes incorrect sounds in Virtual Pool 3 and Disruptor)>SNAC: Fix MCtransfer not being reset between transfers (fixes screen tearing)>CD: fix pause handling during seek (fixes Max Power Racing music playback)>CD: Fix PAUSE timing to match psx-spx and DuckStation (fixes severe frame rate drops in Driver 2 and the intro freeze in Darius Gaiden)Ruh roh, looks like they're still trying to make the hardware-accurate mister core hardware accurate, and have to keep fixing edge cases because they don't have it accurate enough.
>>12913003>CD: Fix PAUSE timing to match psx-spx and DuckStation>DuckStation>mfw software emulation is more accurate than the "100% accurate hardware recreation"
>>12913003It was 99.9% now it's at 100%.
>>12913018Until you move the goalposts again.
>>12912967Yeah, Sony hired him to kill Sega as a competitor.
>>12913018it doesnt matter, fpga antis arent interested in gameplay
>>12913018until next update where it will go from 99.9 to 100% again or will it go above 100% ? if it goes above 100% it isnt real hardware anymore.
>>12912836get baited, retard
>>12912761try ff9
>>12912761
>>12912761Unironically this.
>>12912942>>12912970>>12912892Is this a ship of theseus sitch?
>>12912761What kind of games are you into
>>12912892lol, imagine being so retarded you actually believe this.
>>12913035you are the guys constantly reminding everyone you play on fgpa and lying that you use """"real hardware""". You never see people say OH BTW IM PLAYING ON DUCKSTATION because we dont give a shit, unlike you perfomative, gullible retards.
>>12913013DELETE THIS
>>12913165It kind of matters because there's a lot of games that turn into shit because of software emulation
>>12913235name 3, I'll wait>muh rhythm games!runahead
>>12913254>shitter never played an action gameok good for you i guess.
>>12912967Yes and if he stayed with sony half of those games op played, wouldn't have been released
>>12912761>PAL TV>dark room>PlaystationPEAK LUDO
>>12913352literally my childhood
Try Armored Core and Air Combat/Ace Combat 2/Ace Combat 3
>>12912761>So lately, I've been going through the PSX library on original hardware (MiSTer FPGA),You are a travesty of Original Hardware, you will never be Original HardwareAlso, didnt beat the games. Get a PSX, poser
>>12913013TOP KEK
>>12913165OP was the retard equating hardware emulation to original hardware, no Duckstation Chad like me will ever say Duckstation is Original Hardware.I use Duckstation on all my PCs, and I do own a PSOne.FaGGPaTV+ crowd are as insufferable as vegans
>>12913538Get a job, beaner
>>12912761>What all am I missing?That you should kill yourself for considering Ore! Tomba a trash game.
>>12913594Get a wardrobe according to your biological sex, incel.
>>12913630I really like that jump
>>12913525I skipped Air Combat, beat AC2, plan on palying AC3 JP romhack.Is Armored Core on PSX good starting point? Seems a bit clunky
>>12913035Correction: We're not interested in buying your overpriced emulation box.>>12913165Yeah, these FPGAy faggots always claim they're using real hardware. I'm like "bitch, I'm the one using real hardware with real consoles." Because unlike those idiots, I actually do own a Dreamcast, a Saturn, a Genesis, a Sega Master System, an NES, a SNES, an N64, a Gamecube, a PS1, a PS2, and an original Xbox. I don't fucking need FPGA faggotry.These FPGA faggots are probably the same ones who call themselves real artists when they use AI.
>>12913714>all that thousands of dollars, and thousands of pounds of plastic, and wasted space for an inferior, far less convenient and feature rich experience
>>12913992Complaining about what I spend my money on, is not my problem. If poorfags like you can't afford original hardware and have to rely on fake hardware that emulates these consoles, the problem isn't my wealth. The problem is your lack of wealth, hence your lack of space.
>>12912761>bought raspberry pi 2 for 30 dollars in 2015>plays genesis, snes and playstation games extremely well as if i am playing on original hardwarei don't understand why people waste 200 dollars on a fpga device. software emulation is good enough
yeah fuck this
if you are going to play on a modern tv software emulation is preferable because fpga devices don't have shaders
>>12912761muppet monster adventureit's a 3d platformer. i beat it a few months ago
>>12914131MiSTer does have tons of shaders, and you can use a Retrotink for even more. Shaders are fun to mess around with but 99% of the time I just prefer sharp bilinear for clean, sharp pixels, and then a gamma adjustment using the built in filters. You wouldn't believe how much tweaking gamma makes a difference
>>12914168And it would an inaccurate piece of shit with tons of input lag. That's your prerogative
>>12914182>input lagi don't notice any input lag at all most people who buy fpga devices don't have to worry about input lag because they suck at gamingonly people who need to worry about input lag are speed runners
i beat 50+ psx games using software emulation. input lag and latency don't prevent people from beating the gamesit's all shitty gamers who are blaming latency for their lack of skill
>>12914209It's about 30-50ms more usually. Input lag affects your performance whether you perceive it or not. It's basically like playing with reaction times 30 years older than your actual age.
>>12914219>Input lag affects your performance whether you perceive it or not.it affects your performance to an insignificant degree it's not something you should be concerned about if you aren't a speed runner
>>12914221I mean that's not insignificant, that's more than many TV game modes. People dick measure about a few ms lag difference between controllers or TVs, that's largely irrelevant, but that's multiple frames which definitely does make a significant difference. I guess you've just never experienced how much more fluid and responsive zero latency is.Again, it's just a cope for an inferior setup. You have to ask yourself how much that input lag and lack of accuracy matters. And to you, it clearly doesn't (or at least you try to act like it doesn't)
30-50ms won't prevent you from beating sonic the hedgehog 2 if you were able to beat it on original hardware. you won't even notice iti don't notice it
>>12914229Overdosing on copium
>>12914226>accuracythis is irrelevant to me. if it plays as if i am playing it on original hardware who gives a fuck about accuracy?if i have to use an expensive powerful computer to get accurate emulation then i rather use an inaccurate emulator so i can play on low end hardwarewhen i play on raspberry pi 2 i use pcsx rearmed and snes 2005
>>12914239snes9x 2005*
if you compared pcsx rearmed and original psx hardware using a crt you wouldn't even know the difference
>>12913643Same anon from above. It's one of those games where you start noticing all these little things the developers put into it. The movement is great, but what really gets me is how much there is to discover for a 1997 title. 100+ events, all these interconnected quests, hidden areas, characters who need help. I genuinely don't understand how anyone can write it off as trash.Argue about the hardware all you want, but Tomba is sacred.
i don't even know what accuracy means because pcsx rearmed plays without lag and slow down and it's supposedly not the most accurate emulator. it prioritizes performance over accuracyit plays fine to me. that's all that matters. if i were to compare it to original hardware i wouldn't even notice the difference
>>12914239More copium
>>12914182>muh input lagIs barely noticeable to any normal gamer. I suggest you stop smoking weed while playing.
i would recommend fpga for people like ullillia who spend 1000s of hours playing video game.. i would not recommend it for casual video gamers who spend 2 hours playing a single gameif i had to guess it's mostly the latter who are buying fpga devices. They are concerned more accuracy, picture quality, etc than they are about playing the actual games
>>12912761>original hardware (MiSTer FPGA)
>>12914301Lmao, 40ms input lag is massive, you are just retarded
>i want to recreate how i played video games as a childthen you would buy a shitty consumer crt and play with rf adapters. no one used scart cables, s-video cables and component cables back then.no one used a sony trinitron back then. they were too expensive.i didn't even use a composite cable until the n64. i had no idea what a composite cable was until it came with my n64i don't even think i ever played sega genesis with a composite cable. i played sega genesis with a rf cable when i was a kid in the 90sthis was back when people called bowser "king koopa' and eggman "dr robotnik"
inaccurate doesn't mean they don't play well as people often interpret that to meanaccurate emulators can play like shit because they require more processing power inaccurate emulators were actually preferable on low end hardware
>>12914409are preferable*
>>12914217>software emulationyou didnt beat the games
>>12914409MiSTer's cores are all designed for that one spec and run identical to OG hardware, cope.
>>12913013oh you mean they referred to software emulation for the implementation of the totally optional QoL option to pause the core when opening the osd menu and how to handle CD reads while doing so? thats great sweety. now show me how your software emulation can copy fpga's ability to do actual parallelization so that input, video, and audio are all processed at the exact ssme timings as og hardware. oh whats that, hon? it cant? you have to settle for sync issues, stutter, or constantly altering the game speed? thats too bad lambchop.
>>12912761>What all am I missing?Metal Gear Solid and VR Missions, Tenchu 1 and 2, Resident Evil, and if you like old school dungeon crawlers, PSX has arguably the best version of the first 3 Wizardy games
>>12914508>runs identifical to OG hardware>has a compatibility list and updates like a software emulator because it's not like the original hardwareit has bugs and glitches just like software emulation
>>12914316Yup. They're more worried about "muh accuracy" than losing their virginitah.>>12914328Stop smoking crack wigger.>>12914324OP is likely trying to rationalize his overpriced FPGA purchase than to admit that FPGA isn't actually original hardware. They remind me of the pro-AI crowd who call themselves artists, when they didn't actually create anything.
>>12913258Runahead gives me less input lag than you, retard.
>>12914546>overpriced FPGAit's like $100, but I guess that's one month salary where you're from>>12914623>just have your single player games play like you're in online matchmaking with some spic on wifi>ignore the 2+ frames of audio laghow about no, pablo
>>12914671...wat?Do you even know what runahead is??
>>12914672yes its the same as rollback but for single player. a youtuber told you its a magic bullet so you parrot it as if it is
>>12914671False. The price is $475. Way too much for an emulation box. Rather just emulate games on my PC than pay nearly half my rent money to an emulation box.
>>12914674sure sure. actually the price $4750 your pic is old
>>12914673A YouTuber told YOU that FPGA is a magic bullet, and you parrot it as if it were.
>>12914692youtubers dont talk about fpga because there's no sponsor. It's all open source. so all they do is shill chinkhelds to thirdies like you
>>12914680I screenshotted that price today at MiSTer's official website. $475 is the current price.
>>12914764also you can buy the cyclone v clone board on aliexpress if you dont want to wait, those are also around 150
>>12914542You realize that even official hardware revisions have compatibility lists and differing performance?For Gen 4 and earlier it's 100.000% accurate. For Gen 5 it's 99.999% accurate. Both are far more accurate than even the most accurate PC emulators, not to mention the perfect video and audio latency and sync.Keep coping poorfag.
>>12913056Yes, you did.
>>12914808Would this be a one-time purchase, or will I have to spend extra on accesories? All I want is to plug it to a CRT, I can just use modern USB controllers to play.
>>12914697>you cannot sell open source productsWow! What an adept understanding of the market! You are clearly NOT a projecting mulatto!
>>12914886>this video wasnt sponsored but they gave me a review copy :3wtf i want to buy ewaste endgame every 2 months now
>>12914808That is a misterpi, a cheap knock off.
>>12915915It's a clone board but functions completely identical
>>12914843plug and play.
