I'm not insulting the programmers, I can't code shit, but what I am saying is that a SNES is 3mhz, and a GP32 is 166mhz.
You dont´t know anything about emulation do you? The GP32 has an even higher clockspeed than a Dreamcast, why not emulate it?
Me: Do you think i'm retarded? That doesn't even merit a valid response...
There is also the GBA, which is weaker than the SNES, so it should be no problem as well.
Actually the GBA is
much more powerful than the SNES. It has a 16MHz 32bit-CPU.
Me: Oh, well excuse me, i'm sorry for underestimating the clearly awesome 16mhz power of the GBA.
This means that the new portable should have its own dedicated GPU for the newer systems.
They are impossible to get in small batches (you are invited to prove me wrong) they´re too expensive, would make stuff too complicated and aren´t needed for emulation
Me: I never said they were easy to get in small batches, you see, there is a hidden message beneath all this... I'm saying that if they really want to make a groundbreaking system, it will have to emulate the next generation of systems, which isn't cheap. And I know those chips aren't needed, but that doesn't mean that they don't help.
It doesn’t need a very good one to match the PSX and N64, so it wouldn’t cost much extra (PSX = 4MB video memory, N64 = 2MB without upgrade, 4MB with upgrade which is needed for some games).
Again, you don´t seem to know ANYTHING about emulation. An emulator emulates the WHOLE system, with all components (GPU too) by software, that means in the CPU. NO NEED FOR 3D ACCELTERATION IN EMULATORS!!!!!
Me: Once again, of course there is no need, that does not change the fact that it helps.
1e. This leaves older computer games, now, with 400mhz and 128mb of RAM, dear god, this seems VERY enticing. It is definitely a great, great idea. BUT… you guys are considering LINUX!? This is TERRIBLE! There are almost NO Linux games, and they are even more limited by the fact that they must be very old games. Getting Windows 95 on here would be PERFECT. The only obstacle is making the PC games compatible with the new portable. Don’t worry about it being illegal either, it’s not like you don’t have games on your GP32s that your don’t actually own. It’s the same boat.
Oh yeah, just insert the Windows 95 Boot CD, and install it. Will work wonderfull...
ER, actually not.
Either you are a comedian or
you don´t know anything about computers.
How do you plan to run Windows 95 on a system that has positively nothing to do with a PC?
OOh, right, you´ll gonna port it... Then hurry, get us the sourcecode (if you know what this is) and we´ll have windows on it, all thanks to Viperman...
Me: Okay, I was wrong here, it wasn't as simple as I thought, i'll admit that.
2a. The batteries should definitely be AA. First of all, it sucks having a stupid internal battery that has to be charged, it cannot even be temporarily replaced. Secondly, if any of you were thinking of Lithium Ion batteries, they suck! Firstly, they cost a lot, which needlessly brings up the price (A pack of AAs costs four bucks, a hell of a lot cheaper).
You don´t know what you´re talking about. Do you know how a battery works? No? Well, i will just point out that if a common battery is drained with more than one tenth of its max. capacity per hour, it will drain much quicker. For instance, if a pair of common AA batterys with, say 2500mAh output 0.5Amp (yes, we need that much) they´re gonna be drained in approx. 30 minutes (and after that, you can throw them in the bin). You can, of course add more Batteries, but that would be 6 (six!!!) to maintain a decent durability.
And please note that it is very well possible to use changeable PDA batteries
Me: Refer to below
c. This conflicts with what I saw as the main reason for going against the use of AAs in this portable, not enough voltage. Just use a transformer! Even if this were to draw too much current from the batteries, 4 of them could be used, and then the life would be longer.
Even more bullshit. A pair of AA´s can easily deliver the needed Voltage... but only for a couple of minutes (as pointed out above)
Me: have no idea what I was thinking, maybe I need sleep, I don't know.
Every single system that has ever been made (excluding the PSP) was natively 4:3. Having a 16:9 screen messes all of that up.
Gameboy, Gameboy color, Neogeo Pocket, Wonderswan, Ngage etc... They all don´t have 4:3 screens.
Plus the PSP is stronger than the PS2
Does Stupidity hurt?
Me: What the hell are you talking about? It IS stronger. calling someone stupid because they are wrong about a single thing is stupid in itself enough, but then actually calling someone stupid because they were wrong about something when they were actually right is even dumber. Maybe you should read up a little more about the PSP. hmm?
With newer systems, and PC games as well, 640x480 will definitely be needed in order for the game to not look like crap.
The Playstation, which you hope to emulate, has a resolution of 320x240... of course more would be nice, but don´t overdo it. Do you have a slight clue what those panels cost?
Me: Yeah, they're expensive. Once again, the hidden message is me saying that I do not agree with the low price setting.
To sum it up: you don´t seem to know
ANYTHING about the stuff you´re saying.
Me: Maybe I don't seem to know anything, but I actually do, seeing as how I make plenty of money off of building and fixing computers all the time.
You don´t know much about software, electronics, gaming systems and so on.
Me: No, see, I didn't know that an ARM9 processor wouldn't work with Windows, because I've never heard of it before. Do you know why I've never heard of it? Because I have no use for it. Knowledge only matters depending on the situation. Go to Africa and live with the tribesmen, you'll be the dumbest person there.
This is no reason to be ashamed, most people are in your situation...
Me: Yeah, you always see people building their own computers and fixing them for themselves. That's why ripoff companies like Dell and Gateway are still around selling prebuilt shitboxes, right?
But please don´t bother us with your comments anymore, they´re not competent at all.
Me: Oooh, I guess since I stepped out a little, i'm now a complete retard, and I should never speak again. It seems that the only way you can be happy with your responses is by making humor whether is is coherent or not.
