even on things that seems to not have much case, as long as itРІР‚в„ўs worth it performance wise and what it brings, as long as the question is asked, itРІР‚в„ўs always better than ignoring it and РІР‚Сљjust make it workРІР‚Сњ. So, Dolphin has learned me a lesson, even though itРІР‚в„ўs a very hard decision and it would certainly seem like itРІР‚в„ўs not that beneficial, it is always always always better to have a high focus on accuracy.

Dolphin, a Wii/GameCube emulator, was used as an example to explain that even though it might seem like a weird choice at first, itРІР‚в„ўs always better to go for accuracy and have a certain balance with performance, enough so that modern PC can run most of the things relatively well while older ones might have problems. In newer emulators, itРІР‚в„ўs often a balancing act of trying to be accurate enough to run games correctly while having enough performance to run well on newer computers. Namely, how accurate is it trying to be and how fast can emulate the target system within that goal.Р”В®ssentially, the idea is that you can have the correct and accurate implementation which is more correct, but that will need a lot more computing power than if you approximated it РІР‚Сљwell enoughРІР‚Сњ to just run the games.

While this may all sound great, thereРІР‚в„ўs actually a lot of hard decisions an emulator must make when targeting a system. Emulators even make modding games easier because itРІР‚в„ўs much easier to poke at the internals of a game from within an emulator than on a closed system. TheyРІР‚в„ўve become a way to more easily push games to their limits, with savestates and other features allowing for easier glitch hunting and tool assisted speedrunning. As the game is running in a contained environment, a lot of neat use cases for emulators have popped up. For example, an Nintendo 64 emulator for PC allows you to play Nintendo 64 games on your PC because this program simulates it using several resources from your machine to recreate this environment as best as it can.

To summarize, an emulator is a software that simulates a hardware environment that is completely incompatible with the environment it is run on. This post gets into the details about what are emulators for and what they can do. Some of you might have read a previous post I made about the difficulties and usefulness of an emulator. ItРІР‚в„ўs all about the state of the Nintendo 64 emulation: all its problems, all its pain to deal with and most importantly, how much of a problem it is to research Nintendo 64 games. More precisely, the problem and pain that comes with trying to use them to research Nintendo 64 games.

The subject of this rant? Nintendo 64 emulation. Be warned this blog post will be a bit more like a rant than usual because IРІР‚в„ўm literally at my witРІР‚в„ўs end and have nothing more I can do but write about my issues and try to inform everyone else of the situation. ItРІР‚в„ўs time to rectify that with this huge blogpost on a problem thatРІР‚в„ўs been constantly frustrating me even more than the issues with DolphinРІР‚в„ўs ram search. So, I have been neglecting the blog for quite a while.
