the feels man. Women should just be men on the internet (even if they happen to be trannies) so this doesn't happen

Thanks, you've made me wait five years for this.

 

The only good thing that came from the Dolphin is it's ability to emulate Gamecube games. You know, since Gamecube is much better console than the Wii.

 

WTF?

Online Troll Urges Game Developer Rachel Bryk To Commit Suicide

Looks like the article was updated and now mentions that she had been dealing with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia for years.

I didn't know Rachel well but had occasional contact with her in Dolphin's IRC and her ask.fm when I was more active in submitting patches, so I'm still in some shock since last Friday. What a shitty situation

EDIT: Here is her friend's post.

thank god she never found her way to the codex, she probably wouldn't have lasted even this long

 

Fibromyalgia doesn't exist and fuck the internet for making people think it is a thing.

 

Incoming shitstorm.

Also RIP, she was pretty cool.

 

On the codex, tranny attention-whoring is rewarded, not punished.

 

What is that? 2lazy2google

 

I'm not a lazy piece of shit so I looked it up. It's muscle pain. How does that not exist?

 

Taking a handful of unrelated ailments and calling them a disease.

Oh I have a headache, I'm tired often and my knees hurt, clearly I have cranialpatellaritis

 

Had a great experience with Code Veronica X on gamecube using this - much better than REZero's Wii port. I might try Shattered Mammaries next.

From other thread:

PLZ post your opinion if / when you try it, I plan to play it myself somewhere in the future.

 

Is the Veronica X Gamecube version superior to the PS2 version?

 

I've played PS2 version, stable framerate, no graphical in-game glitches and cutscenes with higher resolution included.

 

It's worth noting there's a PS3/360 version of CVX which was ported to capcom's MT Framework engine, meaning it's pretty much the same game but with overhauled dynamic lighting plus some other new effects (e.g. on water). The models/textures are pretty much the same from what I've read. Of course, you won't get the benefits of savestates with that, though you do get MUH CHEEVOS.


Reading up on the Dolphin forums, it seems SH: SM is playable but suffers from pretty significant visual glitches, so I think I'll give it a pass for now.

 

Tried to play CALLING on the Wii but Dolphin just refuses to recognize my Xbox One controller as a wiimote or wiimote classic extension. Worked fine as a gamecube controller. The mouse and keyboard worked fine (preferable, even) in Umbrella Chronicles but it's unplayable in Calling because you just cannot control the camera at all.

 

There is a PSP version of shattered memories. IDK if it's graphically worse, but not dealing with shitty motion controls is a plus.

 

If the PS2 version is gimped, I can't imagine how shitty the PSP port is.

 

It's been years since I ran Dolphin, but let's see if my memory is intact.
Wii: No More Heroes, The Last Story, Xenoblade Chronicles.
GC: Killer7, Biohazard 4, Biohazard (Remake), Lost Kingdoms, Phantasy Star Online, Eternal Darkness, Fire Emblem, Skies of Arcadia.

 

Especially Eternal Darkness. That game was ace.

 

I tried Cursed Mountain but got stuck about 20m into the opening because I can't work out how do mimic the gestures using a gnomepad or kb/m. I noticed that the PC version someone mentioned is sold on Gamersgate and there are reviews from as recently as last year, so perhaps it's still compatible with modern systems. Maybe I should cough up 10 dollars..........

Anyway here are some screens - only glitches I noticed were in cutscenes:

 

PC version works, but I'm not really sure you want to buy it.

 

I like playing shitty survival horror games so I can complain about them on the codex
