          I broke down and gave the download a try. I was able to play it using the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core without any modification. However, using the same BIOS, I was unable to get it to load with any of the available PSX options in RetroPie. I know it's disappointing, but it could be that this game is simply unplayable on RetroPie.

            @mediamogul yes I tested on Windows but I think libretro cores are cross platform
            and the same improvements in all systems.

              I might be misunderstanding you, but the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core isn't available for RetroPie.

                @mediamogul I didn't know that core was not available. What cores available for psx in retropie then?

                    lr-beetle-psx

                    beetle is mednafen. they renamed it for whatever reason.

                    but... only pcsx-rearmed has an ARM dynarec, which means only those two cores will give playable performance on a pi system.

                      @dankcushions Then can somebody try with beetle even with poor performance? just to see if it boots.

                      Pcsx has not as good compatibility as mednafend psx/beetle.

                        I tried it with the same European BIOS that worked on my desktop machine, but it didn't do anything.

                          @mediamogul Strange... But @horaciowm seems to forget that emulators are not 100% compatible with all games, and not all games work the same in every emulator.

                                @horaciowm Hello, I register just to be able to comment on this post.
                                I am also desperate, all the games work except the ISS200.

                                  @machuna wow. I can't believe so many people are looking for the same game. We should form a club! :)

                                  Indeed, I had a hard time tracking down the game because even though I have the original CD here and can play it on my ps3, I no longer have a CD drive on my laptop for a few years now, and the game isn't released as "ISS 2000" here in Europe, but only ISS, which matches all the ISS PRO games instead:)

                                  Yes, I confirm the same. I have tested it exhaustively back in September and then around Christmas time after updating the emulator from source. Nothing helped.

                                  Was hopeful that the latest update would help but I see no commits there whatsoever that would seem to help.

                                  Might be worth posting a bug at the actual emulator project:

                                  https://github.com/notaz/pcsx_rearmed/issues

                                  Best.

                                    Try and download it from a different website like [Redacted: read the forum rules].

                                      [Redacted: read the forum rules] sounds like a pretty good website.

                                        @thepk The game it's not working in pcsx-rearmed, (it works on windows emulators), downloading the game from other websites will not make the game magically works.

                                          @pjft Hello! ISO already found it. I have several.
                                          But none works.

                                            @machuna As I said, it doesn't matter the format. The game does not work on the emulator at the moment. Period.

                                            We can only hope that either:
                                            a) there are new developments in the emulator that will allow it to run, or
                                            b) a new emulator comes up.

                                            I tried both the European and the Japanese releases, with no luck.
