Short answer, absolutely not.
The Virtex Ultrascale+ FPGA boards are $10,000 AND UP.
If you look up why Mister will not move up to more powerful FPGA chips, this is why.
Would it be cool? Yes. Definitely.
Now imagine that, but on a keyboard. No mouse. That’s pc controls for ZT
Extreme G 2 on pc loses the analog steering from N64, which turns out is a big deal. Throwback Entertainment made a port-of-a-port and introduced a speed hack in the launcher menu where you can slow down the game a bit, which helps, but doesn’t fix the issue.
In some other cases like Hexen, there were alterations on console that I find generally more appealing, like an ost remaster or lighting effects.
The Genesis game Zero Tolerance and Dreamcast version of Expendable are games I prefer on console simply because of the control schemes on pc.
Definitely going to try this.
I have DNS adblocking / tracker blocking set up on an Android TV (spoiler: Amazon is very noisy, even if you don’t watch anything on Prime Video), but it doesn’t help against native launcher ads.
When the launcher first started showing ads, you could disable certain services, but it would break playback on other apps.
I for one am thrilled to relive the jank. Hitscanners that can shoot through walls, auto aim that kinda-sorta works, tools that get used maybe three or four times the entire campaign…
Word around the highly suspect, not very reliable, rumor mill was that the source code was for this game was “lost” and that’s why a port hasn’t been worked on before now. I wonder if that information was wholly incorrect, or if another method was used to reverse engineer the game into KEX. In either case, Night Dive has been cranking out amazing releases, and I expect nothing less from this one.
I don’t know if it ever stopped. Seems like every other month there’s a port or a homebrew that eventually goes retail.
The Atomiswave arcade ports are great.
Dreamcast Junkyard is the typical forum for all things that are “still thinking”
