Pretty cool, I'm glad that exists. I wonder if I can figure out how to get that going on Steam Deck. It's too bad Nintendo doesn't do this stuff itself.
The internals of the RAD2X are similar to what's in the RT2X so thats not an upgrade, but a general use solution for other consoles.
My advice for PS2 is don't bother with hardware mods.
Did you click on "Set Checkpoint"? It causes levels including Training Mode to crash.
I think they did take down the Link's Awakening one but that one was basically freeware that re-used all of Link's Awakening no ROM required.
Maybe, but then an image of "Commander" James "Stephanie" Sterling pops in my head.
I thought mechapwn only worked with Slim PS2s? It does suck that there's still no proper way to run PSX games through OPL/Popstarter or ESR without 5 million caveats and half the library not working because homebrew apps use the same chip that is used for the PS1. Fortunately Duckstation runs whatever I throw at it just fine.
I'm continuously amused by the logic of the ancient Japanese salaryman. I mean, god knows how many people will download this. Easily a million+ spread out over the next few months or less. And all they have to do is hire a few guys to work up a decent source port, release it for like $20-30, and boom: millions of dollars. The game is almost 30 years old and they've been squatting on the IP doing next to nothing with it. They're just leaving money on the table.
Yeah, Nintendo has been pretty wack this year, shutting down 2 emulators, something unheard before. Faggots said Ryujinx was untouchable because the dev was in Brazil or because it had no copyrighted code. I don't trust Nintendo anymore when it comes to these things, they are hell bent on protecting their precious assets and know that the people making these ports will fold to their demands if a DMCA is issued. They know these people don't have the money to fight back. They don't care if it's legal anymore.
Mechapwn works on 50k model fat ps2s which is the most desirable anyway.
Even if we did assume this being based off a reverse-engeneered decompilation of the game wouldn't help it's case, Jurnoscum trying to use the release of the "stand-out" fan projects for article fodder is just the kiss of death in regards to it's survival agianst a company as litigious as Nintendo since it's basically shooting off a firework right at that all-seeing eye and hoping it doesn't notice, and the people who would be using this as some "fuck you" to a company that literally could care less if you were even alive didn't learn at all from when they and the other related corporations shut down Vimm's, let alone taking down any ROM site being caused in due part because of the increaced exposure to thier existance.
Microsoft and Sony are making money on PC ports but they killed all interest in their consoles. All Nintendo wants is for the gaijin to pay for their overpriced hardware, buy their exclusives and give them $50 a year for access to rom dumps. Outside of those three things, they don't care.
Jews?
Worse, Koreans.
You probably need to just install it on a Windows box and then move it over to your steam deck.
Anyone still using Apple products in current year especially if it's for gaming, only have themselves to blame.
