      This is a pretty cool video about a guy who basically created a flash cart for the saturn. I wonder if this will help Saturn emulators, especially on the pi.

        Very keen. As I was watching, I started to question it's direct usefulness to the emulation scene without him actively sharing everything he learned, including the info that wasn't beneficial to his own needs. However, I was glad to see that he discusses this very issue near the end of the video. I still don't see it benefiting the Pi for quite a few generations, as an increase in emulation accuracy would probably mean slower performance from the likes of Yabause that already requires some serious hardware to see acceptable speeds.

        This was a great video. Thanks for sharing it.

          The guy in this video is incredible. He's obviously very gifted. Glad he could make such a huge contribution to the emulation community.

            I would absolutely love to see Sega Saturn emulation on the Pi3. Because of the complexity of the system though, the only way it would likely have a shot is if the emulator was optimized for the Pi3 and design to use all four CPU cores. Most if not all current emulators are limited to one core.
