PC emulators that should be ported to Pandora

[marktuson]

What about things like QEMU? I heard we've got SIMH (not looked recently), that's cool too.


And Atari ST (with a TOS ROM) would rock. Not that I can remember where all my software went.

Correct me if I am wrong... but I am pretty sure Dark Castle, Glider and Spectre (Pre-VR) did not need an '030. They ran on older macs and are supported by Basilisk II for the OpenPandora...


The one good '030/'040 game I remember well was Solarian II.

^ AWESOME!!!! Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Well what do ya know. I gotta start checking out the other board. When there was nothing at the pandora file archive i stopped looking.


I was lumping all those old games into the same group. I used to play a Star Wars game ©1983 in os 9.


Great sound effects in Solarian.

These Official OpenPandora - Pandora boards are better than the "other boards".

Sony, if you could stomach it, there is also a CGA-version of Dark Castle (can be downloaded on ["Abandonware" link removed] that runs on DosBox.


It's no memory lane, but it has (3) colors...

 

[Nintendo]

Thanks, I prefer less colours to be honest. I'll give it a go tonight, will keep you updated. Cheers.

Hi, I've tried the Atari800/5200 Emulator and get a lot of graphics and sound corruption. I mainly use cassette files.


On Windows I highly recommend Altirra, It seems to be very accurate indeed and has source code and lots of documentation. If it could be ported that would be lovely. http://www.virtualdub.org/altirra.html


If I could, I would...

That particular emulator looks like it would be tricky, it depends on many Windows dependencies... The would basically need tearing out and replacing with more portable libs!
