Reporting the performance of some PSP games on a Pi 4 and LR PPSSPP
-
@zering if the language barrier is not a problem to you then by all means go for Extend as it is the superior version, and yes, YS vs. Sora no Kiseki: Alternative Saga, TBH I am not a big fan of arena fighters but I plan to play it at some point, I find it interesting, does it plays well on the pi 4?

@sergioad Flawless on ppsspp. Overall performance on standalone ppsspp on the pi 4 is incredible. With 2 or 3 in frameskip many games run full speed with no issues other than occasional stuttering, and the PSP's framerate is so high that frameskip barely impacts the visual quality. I'm playing some high end games at twice the resolution even. Quite a jump from the pi 3 in my experience as PSP was simply unplayable then.
The Falcom games are all pretty solid on PPSSPP actually now that I think about it. Oath in Felghana was the last Ys game on PSP as I recall and it also runs really well.

@zering man I love YS... maybe whenever I get a big USB I will rip it from my und and play it on my pi
-
@sergioad I've only really played the first one on PC Engine CD. Ever since these guys almost made me brick my Pi in frustration I've been a bit bitter ^^
-
@zering try the PSP version, the music is top notch
-
@sergioad But is Ys 1 really the best place to start the series? Those games are brutally hard and fairly obtuse.
Given how much PCECD Ys kicked my butt I was thinking I'd try one of the later entries, like Oath in Felghana. -
@zering no unless you want the complete story of Adol Cristin, the best is YS the oath in Felgana and YS Seven in RetroPie
-
@sergioad Excellent, I think I may start there then. Thanks.
Did you play the Legend of Heroes games on PSP? -
@zering I played it when I had my PSP

What do you think about my findings friends?
