Little John NES module POC for PSP

Posted Jan 29, 2007 at 11:29AM EST by QJ Staff

It's not like we don't have NES emulators for the PSP. PSP users have had the feature-packed Snes9xTYL and NesterJ emulators for quite some time but that doesn't mean another NES emulator isn't welcome - after all, there hasn't been a new NES emulator in quite some time.

Today, Tinnus has released a proof of concept NES emulator for PSP, a module from his Little John package of emulators for PalmOS. The NES emulator features:

Full speed (@333Mhz and v-sync ON)
Full screen
Full sound at 44 KHz
Full controls (D-Pad, X = A, O = B)
Biggest mapper and overall compatibility ever (I'm yet to find a game that doesn't work)

The biggest thing that this emulator doesn't feature is any type of configuration. This could decrease compatibility with certain ROMs, but remember this is a proof of concept, not the final version of the emulator.

Well, why release a POC so early on? Well, remember the Little John package for PalmOS we mentioned earlier? Currently it emulates the NES, SNES, Gameboy/Gameboy Color, Sega Genesis/Megadrive, Sega Master System, Sega Game Gear, Bandai Wonderswan/Wonderswan Color, and the NeoGeo Pocket/NeoGeo Pocket Color for PalmOS - now Tinnus is planning on porting this to the PSP.

That's right, in the future you should be able to play games from all of the listed consoles using just one emulator from the Little John project. We're quite excited about this and we'll be looking out for more releases from Tinnus. Stay tuned.

only supports 2 controllers, but it would be nice if this snes emu could support the heavier (literally) snes games that require more power from the snes like star fox and that kirby game which was alirght on tyl but still a wee bit slugish at times. in fact one written from the bottom up for the psp like that gba emu exophase made would be freakin sweet rather than all those ports. prolly save alot of battery life too not having to overclock just to get more speed out of it.

# RE: well the snes — Guest 2007-01-29 13:16

I agree with PotFarmer. I'd rather have seperate emulators that are each built from the ground up and support full speed in most if not all of the game available at full speed and sound. Mega Man X2 an X3 seem to currently be bogging down on me on SNES9x TYL, however the exophase gpSP is perfect on Mega Man Zero 1-4....

# cant wait — Guest 2007-01-29 13:26

so it loads it all in one emulator? I CANT WAIT!

# strange but thats not the release thread — Guest 2007-01-29 13:39

why dont you QJ newsposters just link properly, the release was posted at dcemu, only the source can be found at the site he linked to, well done

# Very nice! — Guest 2007-01-29 13:53

Very nice emulator, works like a charm. An all-in-one emulator is more than welcome -- thanks Tinnus!

# WOW!! — Guest 2007-01-29 13:59

Very nice job....We are very lucky to have Tinnus....Thank you!

# sweet! — ultragoregrind 2007-01-29 14:02

i'm gonna try this out now.

# ugh — ultragoregrind 2007-01-29 14:12

well, it crashes for me, i'm on 303oe-c. gives a blue screen, and claims "bus error".

# Thanks — Guest 2007-01-29 14:31

Wow tinnus, great to see you coding for the psp (i was always a big fan of your work on the zodiac) thanks!

# df — Guest 2007-01-29 14:39

i think is Kaboom

# yes... — Guest 2007-01-29 14:44

Ok I rlly appreciate the deving of a NES emu. I rlly do and if u r doin it for fun better. But communitywise there are still some emus that ppl have been askin for quite some time and they r still buggy and/or not playable.

For example is the Neo Geo Pocket Color... I have this console and it have some awesome games like the snk vs capcom. But still its very slow.

I think that maybe a dedicated emulator will increase its steadiness and compatibility better than a Swissarmy emu.

# Nice — Guest 2007-01-29 15:01

I played LJZ on a friend's Zodiac, it was amazing. Can't wait to have it on my PSP :)

# It's not working! — Guest 2007-01-29 15:49

It says "I regret to Inform you that your PSP has crashed" followed by a wierd error code! No, my PSP is NOT bricked but I need to know how to get the NES emulator to work!

# hmm im surprised — Guest 2007-01-29 15:51

I'm surprised no one has done this yet YEAAAAH, WHHHHHAT WHAAAT YEAAAAAH OKAY!

# what game would you play — Guest 2007-01-29 16:15

what nes,snes,gb,gbc ,etc games support 5 players. None that I'm aware of.

# name — Guest 2007-01-29 16:22

# Wrong PotFarmer — Guest 2007-01-29 17:33

er, well just on one part. The SNES had a multitap. Games like Bomberman series, and Tiny Toons Whacky Sports had 1-4 players.

# Well.. — Guest 2007-01-29 17:39

The ONE problem I can say about an all-in-one emulator is that the saves won`t work, thus I`ll have to start every game all over again. Unless he makes it so that it loads the same type of saves..?

# mmmmmmmm — Guest 2007-01-29 19:36

it would be cool if this could be incorporated into the firmware somehow,

like a prx or something so you can run roms from the xmb

# e[mulator] — Guest 2007-01-29 20:23

E[mulator] seems to do just fine.

# ? — Guest 2007-01-30 03:18

Dgen (genesis), Snes9x (SNES), NesterJ (NES), and even the a sega master system emulator has ad-hoc 2 player.

# =) — Guest 2007-01-30 08:57

Nice me LIKE

# heh — Guest 2007-01-30 11:16

my bad i guess theres two games that use more than two controllers

# cool — Guest 2007-01-30 16:48

cant wait to actully play king of kings on my pspnow not even satan will stand in my way
