I saw a video a couple of years ago that demonstrated that you don't need cameras and fat chunky ic's to get perfect light gun on flat screens without delays like the Wiimote or Sinjin, or even the Menacer using the flat screen tech and almost no circuitry.
Using timings related to the actual flat screen tech and not just a bunch of chips calculating positions within a black square and gyroscopes.
I will try to find it again.
AI gun? What if it turns on you?
Did you know that the Sega Master System Light Phaser is still in production? The simple design is so robust that the old guns still work, too!
I would wager the cost of production of a Light Phaser is around $1. The Saturn goated light gun is £100 second hand.
100% insanely pointless. Is this for the event that the game is released in physical cartridge form with additional sram?
Also, you are not expected to "memorise the passwords" in Road Rash, it is excepted that you write them down using something called a 'pen' and 'paper'.
Not quite as noteworthy as the fact that these games now run close to 30fps without overclocking, on original hardware.
I would very much appreciate these games to use the full 240p PAL resolution to remove those 8px bars at the top and bottom of the screen for square pixels and not the distorted ntsc image for an additional 16px of horizontal screen real estate.
It's a shame these games peaked with RR2 as the 3D0 (and ports) version pales in comparison and the N64 and PSX games don't even bear thinking about.
