To save me some time and bandwidth, what's most definitely not working as of the latest release?

In particular, I'd like to know how Popful Mail performs.

Edit: This should probably be moved to Emulation. Sorry.
 
Sonic CD and Snatcher work the best. Most others don't work very well or at all yet.
 
Working perfectly (almost perfectly in some cases):

-Bari Arm (USA)
-Snatcher.(Usa)
-Sonic Cd (Japan)
-Earthworm Jim SE (PAL)
-Prince of Persia.
-Bouncers.
-Chuck Rock II:press start to cut FMV.You need a high OC 250 at least.
-Chuck Rock:press Start to cut FMV to avoid hanging.
-Lords of Thunder.
-The Misadventures of Flink:Needs high OC , 260 at least.
-Flashback:You must cut FMV.
-Space Adventure cobra:Cut the FMV.


*All this games have been tested in 16 Bit Accuracy mode and 44 khz sound.
 
I think when I tested Flashback and Earth Worm Jim they didn't have sound fx.

Eternal Champions
Heimdall
Keio Flying Squadron
Robo Aleste
Shining Force
Smurfs, The
Wild Woody
Wolfchild

I have heard good reports about Shining Force, but the second story (Shining Force is 2 games in 1) crashes for me near the end of the opening cut scene. USA and European versions.

Wolfchild

Yeah, I was looking to see how well the emu ran and saw your video. I thought "wow this emu is a load of unplayable rubbish, it is a choppy mess". Then I came here and read it was the capture. I tried the emu and it is very smooth. I would pull that video, it gives the GP2X and Picodrive a bad name. It will just get the PSP fanboiz saying that the GP2X is teh suxorz.

Is anyone else apart from me getting crashes in Shining Force (story 2)?

It occurs near end of opening cutscene. Not long after the King is thrown in to the lava.
 
Flashback works really well except for the cut scenes as mentioned before. Most of the cut scenes aren't really important, but I am stuck at part where you get your first employment and you have to know (via the cut scene) what your job is.

Guess I'll have to check gamefaq.com
 
-MickeMania Works perfect.
-Rise of The Dragon is not working for me. :(
-Pitfall is not working.
 
For people stumbling on to this thread, the above relates to Picodrive 1.14

v1.20 is now out with increased compatibility including FMV support.
 
I've been playing snatcher on v1.20 and there are times when the audio goes totally garbled like a distorted 80's sci-fi computer voice. Most notably everything I've seen so far after Gillian returns from the rundown warehouse.
