50Hz / 60Hz Comparison PAL NTSC Vergleich

2mal Streetfighter II auf meinem Multinorm MegaDrive. Man beachte den Geschwindigkeitsunterschied.

@matthewwood2010 Am I correct PAL is Phase Alternate Line which is every other scan line being opposite in phase to the previous line to cancel noise. SECAM being (French to English) Colour Sequence With Memory giving better Colour quality in France, Eastern Europe, parts of Africa etc. In either case the mains frequency is used to lock transmitter and receiver in sync.

[@MikeInc79]

PAL provides more colour information due to more lines but NTSC has a slight higher frame rate. Compare 625 lines/50Hz to 525 lines/60Hz. And that means IRL 576 lines visible and 25 frames. NTSC 486 lines and 30 frames. So NTSC looks a bit "pale" for us used with PAL or SECAM.

[@Norrbottning]

NTSC versions get RGB too if you have an RGB cable.

@skaterz500 The original frequency that was intended by the developers is better, which is 99% of the time 60Hz. So 60Hz.

[@janmansde3dede]

@svcxac more 60-55% since america and japan aren't the only countries with game studios :)

[@Norrbottning]

Not really. I bought mine from a store. Works fine with NTSC games.

HEY PAL! COULD WE SPEED THIS UP A LITTLE?

[@TheMacroBlock]

He is playing the PAL version at 60Hz, the game is running too fast. If you play the actual NTSC copy of Street Fighter II Champion Edition at 60Hz it doesn't run much different than the PAL Version does at 50...

[@cakestalker]

That's correct.

Why was Mike changed into some random Caucasian? Has Balrog/Mike Bison's race changed too?

[@mattresssurveyor]

@MLGRacoons Dude, I grew up with PAL and it sure as fuck isn't fun for me, the skewed aspect (it's not just tiny borders) is pretty annoying, but it's nowhere near as bad as the speed difference in gameplay and music (Sonic the Hedgehog in NTSC is a completely different experience, and undeniably superior)! SEGA are assholes for putting absolutely zero effort into localising most of their games for PAL, at least Nintendo were much more thorough in this regard.

[@janmansde3dede]

NTSC is black and with only ! (its a joke.....)
