Ketsui emulation progress (FBA) ~UNRELEASED~

Post by Uzumakijl »

Hey there, recently i was browsing the FBA alpha forums and found some interesting news regarding PGM emulation and the user iq_132 (Admin of the FBA forums) posted some images of early Ketsui emulation, You can see some randomly picked images here: :mrgreen:

(More screenshots and info here :arrow: http://neosource.1emu.net/forums/index. ... 8#msg11748)

He also posted a video of the game being emulated: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YqtLgfQxSU

And according to the video annotations... "Video of preliminary driver. Video is choppy due to fraps recording. Game runs full-speed and sound is good."

----

Still, Haze warned iq_132 about the special situation of Ketsui (Most of you may remember that Cave asked MAME to stop trying to get Ketsui emulated some years ago)

But iq_132 said: (http://neosource.1emu.net/forums/index. ... 4#msg11784)

"I will keep working on this (and any other Cave/PGM game that is shared with me) and try to perfect the simulation/emulation so that when the driver can be made public, it will be worth the wait."

[Note: You can read the full thread here :arrow: http://neosource.1emu.net/forums/index.php?topic=1503.0]

So basically... Ketsui is somewhat being worked on emulation-wise, But it'll be a long time before it is released also, considering that Cave contacted MAME team in the past the same situation may happen here... I have my hopes on this though, It's better than nothing but we'll see the outcome of this.

Discuss :D
