Pandora - psx4pandora - Wipeout 1 [Part 1]

This is a very short video of psx4pandora running Wipeout 1. psx4pandora is a Playstation 1 emulator for the upcoming gaming handheld, Pandora. This particular video shows the Pandora running at 600MHz. While this video is poor quality, better quality videos are to come soon.

you are obviously not the Pandora's target audience, it's a niche product and that's why it wouldn't sell well in a normal store

and what do you mean by fail?

[1hdsquad]

The developers said that, and it was discussed in the forums. Look at the TMS320C64 CPU: It has 4800 Mips at 600MHZ. Thats much more than an Athlon has at 1.2 GHZ!

Doom 3 does not run on the Pandora now because the source is closed and there is no emulator yet, but it will do...

[cyborgtroy]

@1hdsquad - You could not possibly emulate Doom 3 on the Pandora. The only x86 emulator we have as far as I remember are DOSbox and maybe qemu.

We'll have to wait for id Software to open the Doom 3 engine and then someone will probably be able to make a native port. Maybe.

[cyborgtroy]

Ihhh......

Realistic racers are fun for some people, I guess.

I'm hoping that SuperTuxKart gets a decent port.

In fact, I should probably try to help them out. ... It's really not a good game at all right now.

[cowbot2]

there's really no reason not to make a decent racing sim (screw arcade racers) on the pandora

the sgx can do a modest racetrack + cars nicely, some shader effects to jazz it up, and make a loader that can import the bajillions of rFactor tracks and cars.

A racing sim is the kind of game that can begin modestly and already be fun in the 0.2 version. great for a community project.

[willfullcookie]

me too ;)

[cyborgtroy]

I was kinda hoping for Sauerbraten to be ported, but I'm not sure if it has the power for it. I guess we'll have to see.

[SOKKAGUY]

Yeah, Nexuiz would be AWESOME on this thing.

[cyborgtroy]

probably, you'd just need to get some developers working on it.

I don't think id releases the actual levels as open, though, since they're like artwork. I dunno.

Nexuiz will prolly be on it :D

[K4z3yu]

Yes, id Software realease most of their engines for free after a certain time, so the Doom 3 engine should follow up as free some time in the future as well.

Quake 2 and quake 3 already there.

[SOKKAGUY]

so, quake 3 arena could be ported to the pandora, because it's open source?

[cyborgtroy]

Yes, since this is an ARM processor, source code will be a significant problem for games. HL1 runs great under Wine, but unless Valve decides to re-compile it for the Pandora or release a lot of stuff as free, it's not going to be on here.

I dunno about Doom 3, that mostly depends on the graphics processor and whether id cares enough to port it.
