I'm not watching a 2h video. Give me timestamps of comparison points.

Also, second comment on your video says "Wiisx feels a bit less choppy and the sound is more accurate than wiistation". Looks like I'm not the only one disagreeing with you.

wow, how childish, youtube render the final video at 30fps, but the comparison is more noticable with DoA and Tekken3

Well I'm asking you to show me the difference in jittering / performance, you send me a 2 hours video. It'd be more useful to have a one-on-one comparison. Or at least a method that I can use to compare the two, where the difference would be obvious.

For instance: "boot Looney Tunes Sheep Raider, note the FPS counter at the language selection screen".
Note that if you actually do that, you'll see that Wiistation holds ~47fps, while WiiSX runs at 60fps at that exact point. So yeah, unless you can actually show or point to the difference in jittering, I call that BS.

Considering you are new here, you shouldn't really act that entitled.

If he's talking about the jittering that happens on 60FPS NTSC games, it can be observed on Samurai Shodown IV on the shadows, life bars, etc. which are supposed to be a constant 30hz flicker to simulate transparency but due to the jittering it displays incorrectly.

That's on a Wii configured for 60 Hz?

If the Wii is running at 50 Hz, then vsync will be disabled and it will be a jittering mess, yes.

So it's a bit hard to see what's going on - My GameCube output is interlaced, which is then de-interlaced by my HDMI adapter.

What could be happening is that the emulator de-interlaces the frames (basically displaying only "complete" frames at 25/30 fps), and then the output is interlaced again, and (in my case) de-interlaced again.

I'd need to test on a real cathodic TV...

    @BigOnYa, and since the default emulator is below average i downloaded some "replacements" like snes9x for snes games for example
    +1
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    And I also have my ps3
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea ps3 is a beast still to today compared to most "sticks"
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you just want pi for emulation no point when Anbernic releases new shit every two seconds
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What's really cool about Pi's tho is you can have multiple SD cards with different OS on each SD card and change from say a gaming machine to a full fledged pc if wanted
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.
    +1
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it
