Metroid Prime emulated in HD High Definition 1080p

[spike007980]

Im quite content with the 480p this game can produce.

[coolaidkiller101]

for some reason it speeds up if i use a higher resolution by 5fps

[FloppyCat1990]

Can you tell me were you got your ROM from? Did you take it off the disc or?

[9a3eedi]

@FloppyCat1990 If you have a modded Wii, you can download a program for it that can rip your game discs to a file on a flash drive, which you can use to emulate on the PC.

3:31 SHIT THAT SCARED ME!

[brickman409]

Nintendo should make gamecube HD remakes on the wii u, kinda like how sony and microsoft making HD remakes of ps2 and xbox games games on ps3 and 360

[9a3eedi]

@brickman409 I would be surprised if they didn't. They're already doing stuff like OoT3D and those 3D classics on the 3DS. Heck, they even made gamecube rereleases on the Wii (with wiimote controls), one of those include the Metroid Prime Trilogy.

[nicolastiger]

It has a pretty sharp quality I give you that. But Metroid Prime and Metroid 2 Echoes for the Gamecube dont really need 1080p to look good, you could have a pretty decent lcd TV and the digital HDTV video component signal (rgb cable) and it would suck ass as well

[gammypage]

But this video isn't nearly 1080p it's mad grainy so how can we see

[9a3eedi]

@gammypage The first part of the video has an FMV background, and that doesn't scale very well since it's bitmanp. Also, you might be seeing some compression artifacts.

[VadersfistGamer]

is thee a way to use your mouse with Dolphin? would be great for fps games like metroid.

where do i get a controller for a computer a.ka. dolghin

[MonsterVladgor]

Will my ATI HD4600 graphics run dolphin good?

[brianrocks1231]

im not sure but is my graphics card bad?..i can play at 60fps when its at a main menu but when i actually play it goes to around a constant 20. specs: AMD Athlon 64 Processor TF-20 (1.6 GHz) ATI Radeon HD3200 Graphics

[9a3eedi]

@brianrocks1231 Your graphics card isn't that powerful but I think it's enough for Dolphin (can't really tell because I never used it and so I don't know what it's capable of). I think the main problem you're having is your CPU.. is it even dual core? because dolphin was designed for dual core. Dolphin needs a good CPU, even my laptop's 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo can't handle dolphin.

[brianrocks1231]

@9a3eedi i dont think its dual core. probably the problem then. well ill just have to play at a slower speed i guess better than not being able to play at all. my laptop is fairly good though its fast and efficient i guess just not as compatable with dolphin. cuz say i were to play a game on a dif emulator like project 64, its runs smooth. but that could be cuz it doesnt have to process and much. but vga runs smooth too.

[9a3eedi]

@brianrocks1231 Project64 is a Nintendo 64 emulator. Nintendo 64 is muuuuuuch easier to emulate than Gamecube, you shouldn't compare. Project64 can run on old computers just fine. Dolphin requires a fairly modern and powerful computer

[brianrocks1231]

@9a3eedi yeah i get what ur saying. oh well i guess. doubt ill get a newer laptop anytime soon so im stuck with what i got. but im fairly satisfied with it.

[EC2Jonathan]

@brianrocks1231 I had an intergrated ati radeon hd 4200 and that is better than a 3200. i have a 2.80 ghz processor. But now i upgraded to a Geforce gtx 550 ti, before i couldnt play any game with the radeon. So i would suggest a hardware update :(.

[brianrocks1231]

@EC2Jonathan so how would i go about updating it?

[boredutuber757]

@brianrocks1231 no wrong cpu has nothing to do with fps its your graphics card

[FarbrorKudde]

3:32 scared the shit out of me.

[SUPREMEMASTER1]

@FarbrorKudde same for me

[9a3eedi]

@FarbrorKudde sorry :( blame the video encoder.

[TyeDyeNinja42]

This is amazing! where can i get the ROM?

[JoJoRockets52]

damn that could pass as this generation of graphics

[ThePunisherNWO]

did you use the wii controller for this or ur keyboard?

[shadowthingey]

it would be cool if they came with a hack that can enable samus' arm cannon to folow the mouse

[XHolyPuffX]

@shadowthingey

Metroid Prime Trilogy ;)

[shadowthingey]

@XHolyPuffX i know,but if they can hack the emulated one so it can seem like a pc FPS

[XHolyPuffX]

@shadowthingey

Ahhhh I see what you mean. Well I guess trilogy is the closest you can get to that lol trilogy is an amazing game though I played through it on wii and it was amazing.

[correllroy]

wats the name of ur pc?

[9a3eedi]

@correllroy it's a custom PC that I built, there is no "brand". My components are: Gigabyte Motherboard X58-UD5, Intel Core i7 920, Corsair RAM, power supply, and case. ATI Radeon 5870.

[correllroy]

@9a3eedi awww... :(

[varpppisss]

@9a3eedi Change your graphics card, maybe to 6850 or any of 6 series, or nVidia GTX 560 Ti, It wont slow down.

[9a3eedi]

@varpppisss actually, my graphics card (ATI 5870) is more powerful than the 6850.

[varpppisss]

@9a3eedi Well, then change to GTX 560 Ti, or GTX 580! Or even GTX590.

[9a3eedi]

@varpppisss actually, there's no point. the gamecube/wii has such outdated graphics that it doesn't really matter what kind of graphics card you have. It's mostly about the software and the way it's programmed, and also the CPU speed.

Also, I now have a crossfire 5870, so no.
