I revisited F355 Challenge on emulator today. A game I liked so much I bought twice! As I was scared one disk could be damaged or lost. I wasn’t disappointed with the neGcon once I set it up on #Flycast. #Dreamcast #gaming #emulation

Today, I discovered #flycast, a #dreamcast emulator. Which meant that I could *finally* play Marvel vs Capcom 2! I couldn't afford a console when I was starting on my own, so all I had were gaming magazines. All of my excitement brought the attention of my wife. Sadly, she has to be a responsible adult and finish her homework. Tomorrow though, we get to play it together! 😂

I just discovered that #Flycast can emulate the #Dreamcast microphone so I can play #Seaman, and I am **over the moon** happy!! I haven't played this game since I was a teenager!

It can also emulate the Samba De Amigo maracas--kinda awkward with a controller, but maybe there're USB or Bluetooth controllers that work better?

I need to try connecting a mouse and keyboard too. Maybe typing of the dead works?

Oh, and the rumble pack works, and you can have it display the VMU screen!! 🤩

It's an AWESOME #Dreamcast emulator though! Can handle 2x resolution, with xBRZ texture upscaling!

Sadly--though #RetroArch is capable of passing the microphone through to cores, and #Flycast can emulate two VMU slots per controller--it doesn't seem to support the microphone accessory for talking to Seaman! 🙁

Also, #retroachievements aren't working either 😔

I got #Rocknix installed on my #RetroidPocket5. But it's #PSP emulator doesn't accept .7z files so I've got to decompress my whole collection and convert them to .chd files. Also, the Dreamcast .chd files I built from redumped bin+cues aren't compatible with #FlyCast so I've got to convert all of those to .gdi then re-chd them. I hope Launch ox doesn't lose all my favorites when I switch the files 😖

Pirating games is a lot of work!

Flycast emulator is dropping iOS support.
Flyinghead was being harassed by some (or one?) iOS user(s) and was also receiving death threat, so the platform has been dropped as a way of putting an end to this harassment.
