EverDrives & FXPak Pro - The Latest Hardware and Features as of 2020 / MY LIFE IN GAMING

[@mylifeingaming]

Further info on Mega EverDrive Pro audio: Because MDFourier was used late in the production of the Mega SD, the sound could not be perfectly matched to a real Sega CD due to design limitations. The Mega EverDrive Pro used MDFourier from the beginning and was crafted so that it can accurately match the original hardware sound quality.

[@TurboVolcano1988]

You forgot to mention that the Master Everdrive x7 in game menu, while it doesn't work on the PowerBase converter, does work on the Analogue Mega SG via the included Master System adapter.

the NES core footage at 33:20 has a loud high pitched noise over it, idk if you just didn't notice but it actually hurt my ears.

[@firstdegreehurrdurr9532]

Accuracy is something to strive for, but it is not always better in some cases. I prefer the sound of the MegaSD over a real CD system and the Mega Everdrive Pro.

[@synthgal1090]

@ He mentioned audio issues with the NES core, that high pitch noise is that issue.

[@DoctorWhom]

@ is it the sort of high pitch sound mentioned in this Tom Scott video? kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHKYhpyCjryXmK8 older people might need sensors for that.

[@dravenlee4473]

Just imagine time traveling and handing your younger self a chip the size of a fingernail with EVERY game on it. We are a bit jaded when it comes to modern consoles and feeling like tech isn't changing much but it truly is mind blowing the leaps that have been made.

[@snoochpounder]

Current gen looks and feels like last gen. So we clearly don’t progress in the areas that matter to the majority of gamers. Retro gaming is just a niche

[@TARDIB]

I think the biggest leap we will ever see has already happened and it was between the sixteen bit systems such as snes and the 32 bit PlayStation. Now when a new console is released it seems very subtle.

[@ahok1937]

@@snoochpounder that's because now game consoles are altered computers who have to be the best for a acceptable price. But the true "jaw dropping" evolution is on 3000$ PC's. Then, computer were obviously more powerful but they lacked where game consoles excelled. Notably plateformer were better on console because the scrolling on computer was very difficult to do. Also there's nearly no good fighting game on Amiga or Atari ST. Now it's always better to have a computer (but priciest) besides exclusives.

[@simon41978]

@@snoochpounder The PS4 era was very underwhelming. I was expecting it to be phenomenal like PS3 was but it was a very minor improvement. I think that is because we have reached a point of diminishing returns in terms of graphics. Games like Gran Turismo 5 already looked very close to reality back in 2010.

Confirmed. Numbers 3 and 4 are currently inbound for me as well- Master, 64, Mega, and SD2 (or whatever it's called now). What I didn't anticipate is how much it would take the wind out of my sails from a collecting standpoint. The 64 was the first I grabbed due to the abysmal options as far as emulation and cloning. As such, there has been a lot of times I've found it difficult to justify costs for games for a console I pretty much "have everything" for in the form of an ED. Now, I try to make it a point to not "drive up" until I've gotten my collection for a given console to a point I'm happy with.

[@mello_yello_man]

Save state support by Furious on the SD2SNES has been available in a non-official firmware for a long time, maybe since 2018. Now you can find a non-official firmware that includes both the latest SGB support as well as save states. Save states only work with non-special chip games, however, and there can be audio quirks (audio tracks not changing between saving/loading states).

[@ultrajonny64]

Link?

[@nezatrebovan]

@@ultrajonny64 No. Zelda

[@swagar]

Yeah, the audio quirks are why I'm hoping Krikzz adds official save state support. I have to imagine they have the means to make it a bit more stable, and that's probably why it's taking so long to add them. I also wonder if the states on the custom firmware are imperfect in other ways. Like for instance, if I load saves for speedrun practice while I'm trying to do RNG manipulation, I wonder if because it's not a true save state, the RAM values might be off somehow. I don't own an FXPAK to try it out because save states would be like 90% of why I'd want one.

[@tabsntoot]

Krikkz has competition now the products he doesn’t own are just as good and half the price

Admittedly, sg-1000 is not something a lot of people are chomping at the bit for, but worth mentioning.

[@ClockworkBard]

Extremely informative, as always. I'm really lucky to have stepping into the flash cart scene when I did (SD2SNES Pro/N64 3.0 era). The only cart I've ever felt compelled to replace was going from a Mega Drive X7 to the MegaSD for SegaCD support. Even then, the X7 was still a very complete product in its own right. Unless the market surprises me with more things I didn't know I needed, this collection is going to last me a very long time.

34:03 don't know why then ignore having the add-on. When I acquired a Sega CD I already had MDPro and was delighted it can conveniently power it on, otherwise I think you would have to yoke the cartridge slot empty? And whilst there is no burn protect there is region lockout, so you would run a BIOS to the region of your burn and the CD unit just operates swiftly

[@skins4thewin]

With Super Gameboy being fully supported by the SD2SNES now, it makes me wonder if there's any reason why the Gameboy Color couldn't be supported as well. After all, there's little difference between the Gameboy and Gameboy Color aside for some extra RAM and color palette related stuff. Surely it could be implemented as well.

Good review on the Everdrive X7 for N64. I dislike how you completely skipped over the niche, yet thriving Nintendo 64 Homebrew scene, and the use of the USB port, which has been a godsend for developers like us. I do wish MLiG would do a video showcasing the strides homebrew devs are doing with the console, in 2020. There is many information, and other related links on n64.dev (resources etc). It would bring an even wider audience towards N64 Development, and dispel myths that "everything was done in assembly language" (many N64 games were created in C language.)

Emulation might not be quite the same but it does fill the itch for playing games and wouldn't break my wallet at the same time.
