Just how good is MESS's Saturn and Jaguar emulation?
#237757 - 10/31/10 07:03 PM


RB's said that that MESS emulates these platforms, but can I actually play Guardian Heroes or Tempest 2000 in MESS? How good is it?

I love SSF's compatibility, but I hate its limited resolution options and stupid UI. I'd love to switch to MESS. Thanks.

Saturn - Broken. SH-1 needed for the CD-Drive isn't fully implemented, thus the system can't run all games, among other errors.

Jaguar - Supposedly working, with imperfections relating to sound and graphics. Labbeled as GAME_NOT_WORKING, so, chances are the games aren't going to work properly. Some might, others might just crash randomly or not work at all.

No, I've said that MAME does for arcade games based on those systems

Saturn in MESS doesn't run commercial games. Jaguar has variable compatibility - some games run very well, some don't boot.

Well, the best part is as work pours in on MESS, the improvements will be kicked back over to MAME.
