Gryph Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 What arcade system do CvS 1 and/or 2 use? And does anyone know if it will be emulated anytime soon because I actually enjoy those games a lot. SVC Chaos rules and I loved CvS 1 and 2 on console. So does anyone know if they will be emulated anytime soon? I know that SF3 is a long way off because the CPS3 system is hard as hell to crack.
Weirdy Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 CvS 1, CvS2, and CvSpro all run on NAOMI hardware which won't be emulated for a long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long time
Agozer Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 CvS2 Use NAOMI. CvS1 and CvS Pro uses Playstation hardware... Two different things. Or am I just talking out of my ass?
Weirdy Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 you're talking out of your ass I'm afraid, cause there were ARCADE VERSIONS of CvS1 and CvS Pro(japanese arcade only I think)
Agozer Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 you're talking out of your ass I'm afraid, cause there were ARCADE VERSIONS of CvS1 and CvS Pro(japanese arcade only I think)Ahhh, of course, you were talking about the arcade versions.
Weirdy Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 yeah, but anyways, the arcade version for pro only came out in japan I think

Is the hardware that hard to decrypt?! What about CPS3? I know that will take a lot of time. How many years is a long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long time? Like 3 years...4 years...20 years? Oh well. Atleast I have nice NeoGeo to keep me busy
Agozer Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 (edited) CPS-3 has a PCB coupled with a DVD type disc (GDROM?) The disc does all the decryption (or was it the other way around?). There are dumped CPS-3 games but no emulators to run them. Basically, you'd need the actual ROM dump + an ISO of some kind working in tandem. EDIT: The disc contains the game and the PCB the decryption routines and other vital instructions (and some other game data). The CPS-3 has a SCSI CD ROM (the disc), the PCB holds RAM and Flash RAM.

Weirdy Posted December 31, 2003 Posted December 31, 2003 not to mention that NAOMI hardware is basically a dreamcast but bigger and more powerfull(waaay more powerful). You expect naomi to be emulated if dreamcast isn't?

You expect naomi to be emulated if dreamcast isn't?You're so right. Something like this should be crystal clear, but apparently it's not...
Gryph Posted January 1, 2004 Author Posted January 1, 2004 This is depressing. I read about the NAOMI specs earlier today and was amazed. I didn't know it was that powerful. And just think, a lot more great games will come out for that and it'll be forever till we can play it I wonder how much longer Playmore is going to use the NeoGeo system...I hope forever.

Remember, there's somethnig called an arcade machine. You pay to play. You can always play games, it'll just cost you some coins.
Agozer Posted January 1, 2004 Posted January 1, 2004 (edited) I'm pretty sure that there will be a time when the protections are so massive that they're impossible to crack... Yeah, I may be a pessimist, but... Edited January 1, 2004 by Agozer
Weirdy Posted January 1, 2004 Posted January 1, 2004 I believe that too.. btw, I'm not a pessimist either, I'm an optimist with experience
Gryph Posted January 1, 2004 Author Posted January 1, 2004 (edited) Well I'm sorry. Calm down there... There isn't a decent arcade 200 hundred miles from where I live. All the arcades where I life have Crusin' USA and Area 51. But when I do get a chance to go to a badass arcade (this one in Houston called FunPlex), I spend quite a lot. Last time I went I spent $82 at that arcade, so I'm no ultra-freeloader, just a semi-freeloader. It's just that ROMs are the only way I can play these games. I actually pay for my PC games(so sad and naive I am) and I'm not buying a console just to play 2 games...I need that cash for med school I apologize for sounding like a desperate freeloading bastard. And I'm a pessimist with no experience, so I complain about everything Edited January 1, 2004 by GryphonKlaw
