Title: ArcadeVGA + Other Emulators
Post by: ZippySLC on June 30, 2003, 08:54:52 am
Does anyone use the ArcadeVGA card with any other emulators? Specifically, I'd like to be able to play some Atari 2600 and NES stuff on my cabinet's arcade monitor.

You should be able to use most emulators one way or another...many emulators can run at the emulated systems native resolution(s), which is ideal.  Failing that, most are able to operate at 640x480, which is interlaced using the ArcadeVGA.  Of course this is not as good, but I have run some emulators like this and it has worked very well.

I *think* Stella, the 2600 emulator can run at native resolutions, not sure about any NES emus.  Give some a try :)

Ok, thanks!

I have to wait for all of the controls/etc. to finish my cabinet to show up before I can try it though.

The wait is killing me!

Does anyone know if the GEnesis emulator works at a native resolution with arcade vga and a good tv or monitor? ;D

I'm running recently the gens 2.11 with a stupid filter to make it authentical!  >:(

Look for one called GensAVGA, it was modified to run at the true resolution on the ArcadeVGA. I forget whether I saw a post about it on the new or old ultimarc.com forums...
