• Video of nullDC Dreamcast Emulator Running Games on PS3

    Homebrew, PS3 Hacks , 21.09.2010

    A few days ago we reported to you on a Dreamcast emulator in the works by drk||Raziel, we now have a video of the emulator running on the PS3 (courtesy from PSGroove):

    To quote:

    Games are now running and all of the graphical glitches are now gone from the BIOS! This is still a very early build of this emulator, and it will be a few more weeks before this really gets to playable form. It is currently running very slowly, (7.5 frames per second), but drk||Raziel has not even touched speed optimization yet. Also, many games have graphical glitches, sound is not ported yet, and most games don’t boot at all (mainly because they gripe about not having sound). However, progress is moving extremely quick on this project and it is shaping up very nicely!

    spacer Thanks for the tip Saner

      That's what I call a progress for the end users.

      I just donated to him. He is working hard and he proved himself. But I really wish we see PS2 emulator soon!

      I really cant wait to give this a try, as dreamcast is one of the very few systems i never owned, and only got to play on a handful of times. An X-Box emulator would be cool too, then we could play those few "Exlusives" that were good. PS3 Morrowind anyone? but for now looks like i'll start getting my Dreamcast library for download!

      Great stuff. This project should move along pretty quickly as the PC version of nullDC is excellent too.

      As for downloading games, you'll need to do this even if you own the original copy as the Dreamcast uses the proprietary GD-ROM which cannot be read by a standard CD/DVD drive.

      Is this for real ? ... or is there even a slight possibility that it's a fake [video] like the PSP one ? spacer

      Can we still expect this ever gonna be released?
      i would really like to play Power Stone again, it's my all time favorite party game.
      To me the Dreamcast is the console that was truly next-gen.
      Wish i still had it.

      If anyone want to know what is going on with the DREAMCAST, EMU for PS3 here is a update from January 2011. i know it has been a while but better to know something updated than old news. You can check if any progress here from here, below are source links.

      A partial quot below ..
      Last 1-3-11 reported news, drk||Raziel is focusing on porting the Sega DreamCast emulator NullDC to Sony's PS3, now he reports how the BiOS is operational and running !

      Article Source link=( www.ps3-hacks.org/nulldc-drea...erational.html )

      DC EMU DEV SOURCE=( drk.emudev.org/blog )

      The last update was from 2010 .So i thought i would give a look into DC EMU progress ..

      I have a feeling that Raziel gave up on the project, maybe he accidentally updated his Ps3. Lets hope that somebody else will try and continue where he left off.

      I wonder if this will have the option ("hack" i guess) to make the games true 16:9 it is a little glitchy but works pretty good. I would love to play shenmue in 16:9 on my ps3 spacer
