What games do you want to play on Pandora/Pyra


The Ur-Quan Masters
I tried to get into this one but couldn't . It has some fantastic concepts, but I found the gameplay in itself  to be quite boring. 

Darklands (mouse & sound trouble)
This is one I'd be interested in as well. A shame to learn it has mouse & sound trouble. How did you try to run it? Dosbox?

MDK (PC Ver.)
The PS1 version runs fine, but I'm not sure the PC version will run correctly on Pandora. Is there a reason why you'd prefer the PC version?

I used DOSBOX. Perhaps I did not have a good configuration, but on ALL the games I have tried the mouse/cursor either does not exist or doing a left click causes it to jump some distance. This makes it difficult to play mouse-dominant games, which I expect to include Darklands and Betrayal at Krondor. Might and Magic: World of Xeen is fine as everything can be accomplished with the keyboard alone.

As for the sound, in both Darklands and Betrayal at Krondor there was silence when I expected there to be music. Since I have not played them before, I am not sure what to expect. So, for the moment, I wait until the Pyra.
 
I've completed The Savage Empire with DosBox (DosBox Ex) using the experimental DosBox and Nubs mouse and the mouse worked correctly for me without changing the configuration.
 
Are there someone trying to run Terraria or Counter Strike (1.6)?

I was thinking more on Pyra than on Pandora :p . About the versions differences Mc Donalds Hamburger Vs. HQ Bistec, where's the MCD Ham is PSX Ver. Yep, both comes from the same animal but they have been treated on very differents ways.

The new Speed will give Place for more Experiments to reach the Maximum of the Pyra.


Maybe with Wine/Exagear Windows3D Games up to RagnarokOnline,Flyff and others :)


Its a loong Way to fullfill this Whishes but possible :)
 
Basikaly the Games i allready play on Pandora (NESSNESN64PSXGAMEBOY/Collor/AdvanceDSSegaGenesis, Megadrive Mastersystem Gamegear, Atari 2600, Atari Lynx, C64 Amiga etc , Jediknight Games, Wolfenstein, Quake..)


But also some of the more advanced Emulators, like Sega Dreamcast, and mybe PSP, Saturn, and others


Hopefully a Neo Geo Emulator which takes my roms.. (ditnt had luck on Pandora)


And these cool PC Ports, like Minecraft, Doom 3, and hopefully Openmorrowind..


I also wants some driving simulators, best is offroad but also truck..


Im looking forward for the Pyra even it its still 2 Monts
 
Warcraft II
Well It's almost playable in DOSBOX on a 1GHz Pandora on the Pyra it should be pretty good. Also Warcraft II add on to stratagus does work sort of well although it doesn't entirely behave like the original game.

I have a classic that runs Starcraft perfectly. To my knowledge it had higher specs than Warcraft II. Seems like it would be comparable to port

Well The Pandora Starcraft port is a static recompile to a native ARM binary that Notaz ported, this was a painstakingly difficult porting process. Warcaft II hasn't had that treatment yet, so right now it needs slow x86 emulation.
 
Warcraft II

I completed it many times in the past on my Pandora using Qemu. I used the Battlenet edition with a WIN95 image. I remember performance was excellent (fullspeed if you overclock at least to 900 Mhz) if you exclude the very small pauses you'll get during gameplay using Qemu with a SD card (in fact ingoreis, the Qemu author for the Pandora, always reccomend to use Qemu with a faster USB stick but i never tried myself). In any case, if you want to try yourself Warcraft 2 Battlenet on Qemu just make sure to use for maximum performance a WIN95B (FAT32) image (DO NOT use WIN95 with a FAT16 filesystem or any WIN98 image because they are very slow) and (very important) a NO-CD patch. For even added speed you should also use a utility to optimize your WIN95 image (i use TweakUI) or you can opt to manually edit the Windows registry if you know how to.

In case you never used Qemu and have troubles to install Windows on your Pandora you can follow this video made by ingoreis:

I would love to play Might and Magic 6-7-8 (exagear? Qemu?) AND Heroes of Might and Magic 1-2-*and possibly!*-3. Unfortunately, Heroes 1/2 are currently unplayable on Pandora due to Dosbox mouse glitches (which makes me really sad because I thought that the Pandora would be a perfect device to play these games). Also, faster PSP & Dreamcast emulation.
 
Also a GP32 emulator would be great. Would love to play all those games again:)

I used to have mouse glitches with Might and Magic: Wold of Xeen, until I fiddled with the settings and turned off autolock (or was it scancode use?). Also, the jumping (the glitch I suffered) seemed to be for left-clicks only, so if you can use right-clicks instead you should be fine (I think in World of Xeen they are treated the same as left-clicks).

Thanks for the hint, I don't remember if I tried scancode thing. The autolock however doesn't matter in my experience. It's good that earlier M&M games can be played using only the keyboard.
 
A dreamcast emulator, ps1 and gamecube emulator would be what I wanted in terms of console emulation, I'd like PS2 too but that uis very unlikelly to get the games that I own running well at all.

Regarding native games, I'd like to see more intensive games on the pyra, OpenMW, Doom 3, Minecraft running better, The Dark Mod, Cube 2 Sauerbraten also the new supertux kart version would look amazing on a pyra.
