Imagine a Gamecube portatil, is it relevant to do it? There are emulators I know, but these do not need to play the role of Hardware, and if it is relevant, does anybody know how to do it?

The difference is that dolphin isn't just your average emulator, it's much, much better than everything else. Why would I want a handheld gamecube that's "true" to how the game is when dolphin even on 2x internal res looks lordly? I have an i7 laptop and desktop and can do it on 4x at 1080p on battery and 5760x1080 respectively, it takes shit from 2003 and makes it look like it was from 2008.
Alternative is the battery pack and screen some third parties made for it. Good luck finding a battery that still works. Pic related, both, so you can cart your gameprism around.
Anyway we've had these "ironic" discussions time and time again and all hardware fags are always the same loser or entry level nostalgiashit who really just wants to go to >>>/vr/ .
Portal consoles require a LOT of hand work. There are some forums dedicated to console hardware mods. Check this thread, you can see what has to be done

wtf. you just answered your question with your own video or am i mistaken?
>>53978403
I think people forget how there were 3 different ways to display video from gamecube on TV and only 1 of them was even close to displaying at the best of what gamecube could do
>>53978651
And again you don't need to worry about any of this if you emulate. Nobody is nostalgic for a system, you're nostalgic for the games. Emulator gives you both choices - it can look shitty and original if you want, or if you have a PC made after 2010 it can look a hundred times better. You're bypassing the original graphics output completely.
No matter how much of a pro you are at electronics and you make some amazing gamecube hardware - let's just say you could make it paper thin where it's just a screen and buttons. You will still never ever have
>multiple screen outputs
>modern opengl / directx features like pixel shaders
>Anything higher than 1x internal res
You also will never have save states, not as relevant for gamecube since it always had native save options. Important not for cheating but to save your spot if you have to quit immediately, or right before some gay luck based shit or something where you'd have to replay the last 20 minutes just for another try. Always see hardware shits shitting on save states but it literally "shit part of the game that everyone hated" insurance.

not entirely true, it depends entirely on the emulator, some render worse than the original system, many render at the original system and alot have problems with muddiness that the games didn't have.
we're talking 3d games here, i'd say it depends just as much on the emulator as your pc
>>53978884
It would be even worse on the console itself. The GC was 480p right? That's probably max and most would use even less.
>>53978403
yeah, I'd love a handheld, (modern) low spec, portable pc though with a trackball. Don't know why that hasn't caught on yet

Would love to see the exact same position in game rendered on the gamecube for comparison. My favourite part about arguing with nostalgiafags is that on one side, you have the shitty console blurring the graphics, and on the other side you have nostalgia unblurring it. They look up their old games and inevitably will only be able to find emulator screenshots which all look better, then they use that beauty to "remember" it that way on their memories.
Was at a meetup with a few friends in 2008, one of them thought he was so cool for going up to his attic and pulling out his 64 with smash bros and bringing it for us all. Had the emulator on my laptop which I brought but he insisted that it must be the "original" way. After 3 minutes of side by side comparison nobody gave a fuck about the 64. My favourite lines from this
>So anon how long did it take this person to re-code the whole game for the PC, it's like perfect
>OMG GUYS NINTENDO MADE AN "HD" VERSION OF SMASH BROS 64 FOR PC
>>53979027
I mean I still have my consoles to play games on, but I use emulators as well. I'm not autistic about nostalgia faggotry or MAX GRAFFIX
I wish I were home, I could do a side by side comparison of Metroid Prime running on my Wii and on Dolphin in HD from the same locations
no games
Just stick to emulation. Get Dolphin here @

>>53978403
Well, handhelds != laptops
But the screen on that thing looks fucking pathetic anyway, I'd rather be playing emulators on my beautiful 1080p smartphone screen than that.

It might be easier to buy pic related when it's available and emulate games on dolphin at the lowest settings. Isn't the ishiiruka fork optimized for low-end computers?

$100,000 is not much to ask for when developing hardware. They just introduce "Wade", their sponsor, but don't produce any actual information of how they will cover the expenses of the unit.
>>53980234
they already have a complete business producing android handhelds. They didn't need the kickstarter at all, they did it to gauge interesting and get pre-order money
>>53978342
I was playing legend of zelda wind waker on 4k the other day and the game went from looking like it was made in 2000 to 2013. It was astonishing. Pics?

Post them pics bruh. I considering buying the HD remake but it's still over $50, kinda pricey for a 3 year old game that's a remake of an older game.

i prefer playing most n64 games on the original console, but thats only because the further down the line you go of the consoles life span, the worse the emulation gets. n64 is cunt at emulation

Fuck off José
>>53978938
I've been running games like this as well, and I realised that the way they developed were basically just vector anything that moves, and sprites for anything else.
Which makes the game looks fucking amazing on higher resolutions.
>>53988235
First party GameCube games were all very well developed
Anyone here know if it's possible to play Wind Walker or Twilight Princess in a portable device?
I had hopes that Nintendo would release it for n3ds, but they didn't.
>>53980455
Ugly, but that's just the twin snakes textures/models in general
What kind of fucking internals are in that thing to run gamecube games? Even my desktop, which is admittedly somewhat old, has trouble running Dolphin.
>>53989235
Define portable. You could probably run them on a laptop with discrete graphics
>>53978403
I had one of those screens for mine.
>>53989419
Phone or tablet sized.
Laptop-sized seems too big.
>>53990938
Maybe the nVidia Shield? I don't know if there are any good GC emulators for Android

Actually a quick search revealed that there is a version of Dolphin for Android, and it seems to work just fine on Shield TV
>>53978403
Dolphin is shit and has massive issues with many games.
Don't tell me otherwise. Don't tell me it "runs fine for you" or claim I have a shit computer.
There are massive glitches in nearly every game. If you're so pleb to not care about these things you're worthless.

Never had any issue with any of these at 1080p on a first gen i5, played start to finish. Version matters. Even if it's worked forever, a new update can ruin a game, you just have to find one that works for you and at max keep around 3 versions.
You must post what obscure game you tried to get working with it, so I can then say nobody cares about it. Same shit with N64, that gay japanese ninja game that everyone brings up and insists is super good so they can pretend their complaint is valid. Proof of hipsterism is that nobody ever complains about Rouge Squadron.
>>53987954
More like Josep, I think.
>>53991177
dolphin cant even properly play the gameboy player
>>53991813
Did you just make this for me? Might as well make it text bubbles like a phone texts conversation instead of stick figures.
Again, every time we have this conversation:
>What game did you want to play
>The super obscure one that doesn't work so I can say it doesn't work so that the whole emulator sucks
So use virtualboy advance. But I guess you won't because of this picture that you made to defend against what I'm saying right now. Hilariously enough I've never even heard of a gameboy game that won't work properly in it so it's even harder to make this excuse.
My theory on this - Hardwarefags are the type of earthbound nostalgia people wherein they can't ever actually re-experience the game again because they would have to admit it sucks and their nostalgia and memories were wrong, therefore they hate the way it's able to come back vis-a-vis emulators, and must insist you get the original hardware and cart so that they can't or in their case it will cost way too much, then never play it again, and keep on remembering it as perfect.
>>53991023
Will look it up.
Thank you very much for your help.

>>53992636
They must be.Jewtube is full of videos proving them wrong.I'm running Linux and have had only minor issues with Dolphin and other emulators.Shit's a godsend on a crappy day when you're stuck inside.

>>53992572
>>53992636
>>53992382
No, it's the same with all anti-emulator people. Was on /vr/ when it was new and it was great until the secret-clubbers showed up.
Every time we'd argue about this, the reason is always
>but this super obscure game that nobody cares about doesn't work so emulators just suck altogether
And the one popular game that doesn't is never mentioned. My other favourite is "they're illegal"
I guess the other theory is they got one of those rip off flashcarts instead and don't feel it was worth the absurd prices they always are
Adults have no business with portable game systems.
>>53993235
I think I'd get those flashcarts if I wanted to gift my N64 to my niece or something
>>53993025
>>53993161

That is disgusting and the rest of the unit is no better.
>>53978342
>Imagine a Gamecube portatil, is it relevant to do it?
Why in the fucking world would you need this? Handheld are extremely obsolete to mobile devices. We have modern portable hardware that is strong enough to port fucking PS3/360 level game with ease.

yfw i do this every day on my wiiu while you sit around with your trendy meme consoles wondering why theres no good games
>>53991023
It barely runs on that, and the Shield TV isn't portable and focuses on video performance, may as well use a PC at that point
Give it another 2-3 years and I can see portable Android Shield-like devices playing most GC games reliably
>>53994018
So what? No company is going to port those games. That hardware is fucking useless because the games for it suck. I'd rather have an N64 with actual good games than a beefy tablet that plays dick all.
>>53991044
every game plays flawless in dolphin, faggot
>>53991044
your computer is shit and your are wrong
Anybody here played RE4 with Dolphin? I tried the Wii version a few years ago on my i5 750 box and it was mostly ok but chugged at points and there was a point in the game where it'd always crash and you couldn't finish the game.
For that matter, is there an appreciable difference between the Wii and GC versions or is pretty much the same shit?

I have to admit, out of all the hardware hacks, console hardware hacks are still almost always awesome to me, even after the NES in everything craze
To me, though, the real holy grail is hardware that encompasses several consoles and handhelds at once

This, but this really goes for any 3d game I can't stand playing at the original resolution, especially when so many games have texture packs modable
