Title: Vertical NES Emulator!
Post by: EndTwist on April 17, 2005, 01:22:47 pm

I ran across this message the other day:

It would be cool if there was some sort of doohicky for playing console emulators in vertical cocktail mode.
I'm imagining a piece of software that takes the video from the emulator and displays it rotated and mirrored for both players, so the game is displayed twice on screen, one facing each player.

Did that make any sense?

Yep. I did it. (that isn't a faked screenshot)

That's exactly what I was thinking of! Any chance of a DOS version?

Unfortunately I was working off a program called olafnes, which is an enhanced version of basicNES, which was programmed in Visual Basic 5/6 -- Win32 only.

Give me some time to assemble the binary + dlls + simple instructions and I'll have it up ASAP.
