    At 00:27 I was referring to 13 years since Version 2.0 was released in 2010. The 2016 update was 2.1 noted as a PCSX port to Wii/GameCube. Could've worded it better, but hope that clears it up.

      Please do a favour to everyone and list your exact setup specs, so people can replicate it and actually get the emulator running. Because WiiSX/GCSX just doesnt want to run unless the settings are just right. And there are really no actual tutorials on the internet how to set up the emulator.

      In terms of Mhz the Gamecube was weaker than the Xbox but the Gamecube had better Memory (1T-SRAM), both as RAM and DRAM, which worked at way lower latency, the hardware lighting system was better, the CPU was a little improved IBM Power PC III, they improved the SIMD capabilities, and not a regular Celeron Petium III. The Gamecube GPU pipleine was fixed and not programmable, its true that a programmbale pipleine GPU offers more flexibility to the programmers but at the cost of performance so if the programmers used the Gamecube GPU correctly they could match the Xbox programmable GPU and even surpass it in cases.

    Reminds me of Bleem. I remember playing PS1 on my Dreamcast and laptop back in the day and it looked amazing. I was also a part of the old Xbox scene in the beginning and helped on XBMC. I'll never forget blowing all my friends minds with using XBMC as my frontend, and running emulators on Xbox with all the box art and stuff. It was like a preview of what Xbox arcade would become.
    I was like 15, a super nerd, and I miss those days. It was the beginning of this whole mod scene, and we were all discovering what these boxes were capable of. Now this stuff is all common on modded consoles.

      Not64 has gotten some upgrades actually. Performance is generally OK now in a lot of titles with some titles running mostly fine. I think it is almost a requirement to use GC Loader or M.2 Loader if you want any kind of good performance out of N64 games. It helps tremendously for larger titles that frequently need to swap out the RAM.

    1:24 The PS1 processor is present on ALL PS2 systems as it acts as the sound chip and IO controller for PS2 games. Later model PS2 systems full integrated this into a single larger chip to reduce costs but it was still there.
    1:46 This chart is riddled with errors. The GameCube processor was a custom PowerPC 750, not a 7500. It has a few custom instructions to accelerate dot product operations but not a full SIMD implementation. The entire IPC line should be omitted as they were all capable of executing a single instruction per clock sustained but had different peak potential rates that was highly code dependent. Similarly the bandwidth below the GPU clock could be removed as I have no idea where that data is being pulled from. The original Xbox is the only system on the chart with programmable shaders as the GameCube's units were fixed function (think DirectX 8 vs. DirectX 7 compliant). I think that that line is supposed to mean pixel pipelines and texture units which would be correct for the Xbox and GameCube (with the Dreamcast having 1/1 and the PS2 having 16 shared pixel/texel units). The original Xbox has 6.4 GB/s of bandwidth (200 Mhz base clock * 2 for DDR * 128 bit width / 8 bits per byte = 6.4 GB/s). That chart does not include the hyperfast 4 MB of eDRAM that the PS2 has on its graphics chip bringing its total memory up to 36 MB.. Similarly the GameCube also has 3 MB of eDRAM on its GPU. Memory capacity on the Dreamcast was 26 MB split up between 16 MB of main memory, 8 MB for the GPU and 2 MB for sound.
    4:43 There is a BlueTooth adapter that can be modded into a GameCube called BlueRetro. This allows pairing with various PS3 and later controllers, though it is unclear if the additional buttons could be used via this mod. However, there are direct BlueTooth dongles that'll plug into a GC controller port too but I'm fairly certain the extra buttons cannot be used.
    4:56 Audio stuttering is likely an artifact from the audio chip emulation not being precise. Audio is a very different beast in how it is handled by these systems even though the rest of the system (CPU and GPU) are being handled correctly. Probably no need to nerf the frame rate to fix this, rather better software code for the audio.

  • @lostsektor

    The framerate in screen is the emulation speed as a 60hz game, not the real internal frame rate of the game. FF7 battles is like 15~20fps in real hardware not 60. and as u can see in the screen does not look real 60 at all.

    For the missing buttons on the gamecube controller you can map the dpad to the analog stick and to the dpad map the missing buttons. In that way you make the emulator to play with the classic ps1 controller without the analog sticks (non dual shock). Or the games that they are not using the right analog stick map the missing buttons there. You have to be creative. There always ways if you have imagination.

    Sony went with partial hardware BC because the PS1 BC feature was implemented fairly rapidly at the PS2 launch. The PS2 would be fully capable of having a decent PS1 emulator and the later PS1 slims are just that. It's less compatible than the earlier PS2 models but people didn't even know it was a software emulator for years.
    The Dreamcast also accomplished this with bleem way back in the early 2000s.

    Despite the claims on the github I had zero luck getting PS1 games to load from my GCLOADER. But I threw the exact same files and structure onto my SP2 and it worked fine. So far the game I tried that worked the best was Dr Slump, which surprised me since you'd think that would be a more demanding game. And also FF7 worked pretty good. Everything else was fairly poor framerate.

    Back in the day (2004 I believe), I used a Pentium 166(MHz) MMX to emulate PS1 in Emurayden, the 33MHz PS1 CPU is not so hard to emulate, you just need some sort of vector math acceleration, the PPC 750CL* of GameCube should be enough, the first PS1 emulator to ever exist was a Mac one compatible with such CPU (but was slow). Saying all that, I'm really happy to see the emulation to improve and really cheering for them to keep the good work! The GC cpu could be enough, but certainly is not easy to work with 32+8MB of RAM much less with an undocumented hardware!

    In terms of Clock Speed the Gamecube was weaker than the Xbox but the Gamecube had better Memory (1T-SRAM), both as RAM and DRAM, which worked at way lower latency, the hardware lighting system was better, the CPU was a little improved IBM Power PC III, they improved the SIMD capabilities, and not a regular Celeron Petium III. The Gamecube GPU pipleine was fixed and not programmable, its true that a programmbale pipleine GPU offers more flexibility to the programmers but at the cost of performance so if the programmers used the Gamecube GPU correctly they could match the Xbox programmable GPU and even surpass it in cases.
