How did he make it look decent on a modern tv? I tried to play star wars racer on my flat panel and it looked like a kaleidoscope.
11 u/m_antis Nov 04 '20 Perhaps he’s running it on an emulator using something such as /r/retropie 9 u/Columbus43219 Nov 04 '20 My retropie 3b+ can NOT push the N64 emulator to work with GoldenEye. It comes up like a 386. 7 u/ACantabrana Nov 05 '20 What's a 386 4 u/_Aj_ Nov 05 '20 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_80386 Intel cpu from the late 80s. Ie very slow 7 u/racinreaver Nov 05 '20 They were snappy at the time, especially when you got the Turbo Button! I could load up Commander Keen off a floppy in mere seconds. 2 u/_Aj_ Nov 05 '20 Ayeeee. You can get Keen on android too now if you want to relive it! Turbo button was trouble too. Poor Pac Man went at about 1000x speed on our system. That's what happens when you tie game speed to the cpu clock 1 u/racinreaver Nov 05 '20 I remember my brother and I would screw with each other by hitting the turbo button when the other least wanted it. We took turns based on lives, so the sooner they die, the sooner I get to play! 3 u/ACantabrana Nov 05 '20 Thank you friend!!
