Philips G7000

[Steve-O]

Someone PLEASE Write an Emulator of the Philips G7000 for the GP32

The G7000 is one hell of a Retro Machine

Look at the graphics -

Nice

Need source.

 

[Steve-O]

Need source.

​

When I said write one, I meant write one from scratch, Or would this be too hard?

I dont think theres any Roms Available anyway I Own lots of the games and they kick ass 1980 or earlier they were released I think so teh console I have is over 24 years old

Are you sure the GP32 could handle graphics like that?

 

[grooveholmes]

anyone willing to develop an emulator please add chatboard support coz IT HAS A KEYBOAAARD.

btw, lovely machine. what's the keyboard for?. the games look pretty simple.

​

Thats the problem, I dont think the GP32 can handle them kind of complex graphics

​

I had a game that actually used the keyboard. One player typed in a word while the second player wasn't watching, then the word was scrambled and the second player had to find it out. Yeah, big loads of fun!

one of the best games had to be when you were that rockect and u had to use just enough thrust to get to the thing at the top of the screen (I think)

and another good one is when you blow each others castle up

Kicks ass

 

[V3X]

is this system supposed to have sound? coz mine doesnt(the consolethat is).

 

[ravuya]

Is this machine actually functionally equivalent to the Odyssey2?

​

Yes, Its suposed to have sound


5.1 Surround sound actually (Joke)

But realy it has sound...

Is this machine actually functionally equivalent to the Odyssey2?

​

Yes Its just the same machine but a different name (Like the Megadrive is also knowen as a Genesis)

​

I think you could handle the port though. If you re-write the CPU core in ASM, optimize the hell out of it I am sure you could get it to run at FS 1 at 166Mhz. If you are real good maybe even with sound! I do think you might have trouble emulating that graphics chip though, it looks like a monster

 

[Steve-O]

Please someone try to port it over

http://o2em.sourceforge.net/

the GP32 can easilly emulate it I would think .. the G7000 only has a 1.78Mhz chip, 64 bytes of RAM and 16 Colours

Thanks

kicks ass doesnt it

 

[watoto]

the cowboy one was rad!make the emu now!(please)

 

[andius]

it would probably be easier to just make reamakes of the games then to make an emulator

The Source code is out for the emulator http://o2em.sourceforge.net/

also, I think the Roms are PD now for the G7000

Please Please Please Port it

Thanks
