the games may be small but the n64 was pretty processor intensive and had a dedicated graphics chip. the p series lack a powerful chip and even though the processors are roughly equal in speed (100mhz - anyone back me up on this?) emulation overheads would push waaaay past it's limit. even a desktop usually doesnt run fast enough to perfectly emulate an n64.

bit of a shame really as you could fit about 15 copies of mario 64 on one 128mb memory stick

Only thing i know of that can run n64 roms is the xbox

GoldFinger how do you get them on ya xbox

Erm need a chiped xbox then u can just ftp the emulator to the HDD..

PC and PS2 cant handle/run it for some reason, id be shocked if the P900 could, but Xbox can. dont know why Xbox can if ur PC cant but hey hoo ...

Me thinks it can't run that game

Try another game perhaps Sonic 1 to make sure its working correctly

Is there some update or different version of Picodrive which has better flip closed -mode (Like in GoBoy). I mean when you close flip, screen goes to the top. In my version there is about 1 cm empty space.

Hi,

Sorry to bring up such an old thread but I have a few questions. First of all here's a site for you people looking for roms. http://www.emuasylum.com/inde[....]ype=list&system=Sega%20Genesis

Secondly, I have just bought a P900 and it'll be here mid next week. I have previously had an A925 and it was gtreat for PicoDrive! How is Picodrive on the P900 as it doesn't have any buttons?! Do I have to use the keypad or somethng? How does it work?

Thanks

it works by using the touchscreen left right and the cam-internet buttons etc...

Thanks for the quick reply! Is it easy to use with the P900?

Posted by ten18
nope, its actually quite difficult to play on a P900! if you want to play md/snes games its better to get a QD.
