Sega CD Games Won't Launch
-
@zering how do I switch it to run picodrive? I was aware of lr-genesis-plus-gx not running certain things, but I thought it would at least run SOME of my ROMs. It hasn't run anything.
-
@jmiller820 You launch a game, as it launches a small window will appear, press a button on your controller to open the runcommand menu where you can select a different emulator.
-
@zering Success! Haven't tried everything but picodrive is working on at least the first couple of games I've tested! So I guess my problem was specifically with the other emulator, or the BIOS for it.
-
@jmiller820 Probably both. Most of your roms aren't compatible with lr-genesis-plus-gx. Anyway, glad it's resolved.
-
@zering I really appreciate your help! I'm definitely learning as I go.
-
@jmiller820 We've all been there. As a matter of fact I had the same issue, I learned about BIOS because I wanted to play Snatcher on Sega CD.
-
@zering Snatcher is one of the games I'm looking forward to playing! Did an English language version of Policenauts ever happen? That's another one I wanted to try (I know that's for PS1).
-
@jmiller820 Yes on PS1 and Saturn. You'll have to find a pre-translated ROM or patch it yourself.
-
@zering found it and it worked! Now the only challenge will be finding time to try to play through Snatcher and Policenauts.
-
@jmiller820 They're only about ten hours long.
-
@zering Ten hours? I've been finishing Snatcher for twenty years. XD
-
@iandaemon I was all excited and optimistic that I could realistically get through them soon, and you just snatched (pun intended) all that hope away from me.
-
@jmiller820 I could see why Snatcher might be tricky to finish, but Policenauts is fairly easy and can be beat in a day.
-
@jmiller820 I'm sure it's fine. It's not the game. It's me. I just haven't gotten around to it. When I was younger I had all kinds of free time. Now-a-days just trying to find the time to sit down and get into a story is a challenge. :D
-
@iandaemon I'm in the exact same boat. I think the last new game I finished was Red Dead Redemption.
