It's completely unplayable with sound and slightly less (but still very much) unplayable without sound. Not the best quality (cell phone), but they're videos nonetheless:Blue Protoman said:second exodous said:Eh, to each his own.

GoldenEye wasn't the only game I wanted to see in action, but it was the game I wanted to see in action the most.

I agree, the video was really nice.lobski said:Wow, the remote desktop video was brilliant, but I really, really wanted to see how games would play. But ED didn't launch any

From my impressions reading the developer thread and beta testing thread, the amount of work that can be done is minimal. Ari64 makes regular updates to the dynarec and Adventus' work on the gles2n64 plugin that gives us hardware acceleration for the graphics is as far as I know complete. So it's not a case, like most of the other emulators, that it's not optimised for the Pandora, because it is. That's not to say there won't be future improvements, just I've got the impression that most of the things that can be done, have been done.

WizardStan said:When running an emulator, press and hold the Pandora logo button for 4 seconds. This will force the emulator into a window (an 800x480 window that you can't resize, but a window nonetheless) and opens a kill dialog. Ignore the kill dialog, minimize the emulator window, switch tasks, do whatever you need to do. When you're done, go back to the kill dialog and cancel it, and then bring back the emulator window: it'll re-fullscreen itself after a second or two and you can go back to playing. I've done this a few times when I needed to lookup something on the internet while playing.
