Tip: When making your overworld, mix the terrain up! Angled land and multiple colors looks much more interesting than square land and plain colors.

Hello, I've been wondering exactly why that there is no way that Yoshi's island can be emulated on SNEmulDS. Can someone please explain to me why in great detail? Thanks!

It contains the Super-FX chip. Since this chip isn't emulated in snemul, none of the games containing it will run. Notice: The PSP still has trouble emulating this little chip, so never hope to have it. It's the little powerhouse of the SNES.

A better solution would be to get a slot 2 multi-function card (like the EZFlash 3-in-1) and then just using the GBA port of YI.

Note: I have YI on the GBA, but I just want to know if it can be done.

The port is on the GBA. Ha..I made a funny.

Anyways. Yes, you could get it running if you've got some experience with C/C++ (I'm not actually quite sure which it's coded in, and I couldn't be damned to look it up either.) But you're not going to get it running at a decent speed, I warn you. As I mentioned above, the PSP cannot even get it going at a decent speed, so the DS doesn't have too much to offer. (But hey - people like me saying things like this get proven wrong all the time. For instance, GBA on a slot-1 flashcard, playing backups on Wii without a modchip, N64 on PSP.)

Meh. Imo, it's not worth it. Just play the GBA game. And wtf is up with the postings? I gotta stick it in the quotes just to get it to work lol.

Well, thanks then. I don't know, it just a thought. I just want to see how far the DS can go with emulation. What I really wanted was Super Mario RPG to be emulated on the DS. Man, that would be so cool, a would probably crap myself. XD

Someone can close this now, I guess. Unless someone wants to work on it themselves and talk about it here, I don't know.
