just wanna ask, is Wonderswan emulation considered "next-gen"?

 

[Xeven]

well i guess, umm, it's a gb/gba type handheld right?

 

[Shiori]

Yeah, it's like a long gba.

Looks kinda low-tech to me, but somehow emu authors haven't picked it up yet save for the developer of Boycott (?) i think....

...is it because all its games are Japanese?

 

[Xeven]

maybe some japanese coders will start one?

I have FF1 but I have got no any emulator to play it

 

[Shiori]

There is an emulator called Cygnus, but it's still in beta stages, and can't play the FF games yet.

There isn't also any sound. I guess Wonderswan games don't have sound? hmm....

na, the sound probably hasn't been emulated yet..

The Wonderswan isn't being picked up because it's a total flop (with the exception of Square's bribed support) not coming to the U.S. There is sound (supposedly pretty bad sound), but the current emulators don't have it in.

it flopped coz all the games suck or something... course it also fitted itself in the market segment conquered by the no. 1 selling console in history (handheld or otherwise).. or probably coz Bandai doesn't know crap about consoles..
