How To Run:PS3 Filer v0.0.3 with NES Emulation

Playstation Access had a video of the NES Emulator, and have updated it to show the readers how to actually install and run PS3 Filer v0.0.3 with NES Emulation on their Playstation 3.

[SSCOOLCHEA]

i dont know about you but i bought my ps3 to play HD games on my big screen tv . Why would anybody pay so much money for there entertainment system to play fkn mario. I guess people have choices so i should s.t.f.u.

I think its pretty cool man. Aint nothing wrong with paying homage to the Ol'School every now and then. The sweet thing about it is you have the option to play Nintendo games on your PS3. Its like...like a cardinal sin.

I would actually DL but the roms seems to missing sounds which kinda turns me off about it. If they ever fix this, I'm all over it. RC Pro Am, SMB3 here i come(Again).

[cmrbe]

know what NES games are on it?.

[slave2Dcontroller]

is that damn near every nes game that exist. Roms are tiny files so most emulators include almost the entire nes library. I used to have an emulator called NEStern and it was jam packed with games. It had everything I ever wanted and more. I'm guessing this will be no different.

1 - I don't know about you but the nes is still one of the best systems ever made and will always remain as such. You making the claim that just because a game is in hd it is automatically better is wrong. Way wrong. No game compares to Zelda, super Mario bros, Crystalis and a few others. to this day they hold a special place for anyone who experienced them when they 1st dropped.

1.1 - Yes, it is very cool, if not somewhat off putting when playing real emulators for pc or mac cause they're usuallly fully functional and are speed set to perfection. This emulator is a little off on key areas.

1.2 - the ones you drop into it yourself.

1.3 - Only the ones you drop in it yourself.

Now, with all this said, the emulator here is problematic. It's easy to install and run but there is no sound. there is no interpolation support. there is no buffer or sync support. there is no input support. what am I saying? Well, it's cool and hopefully this paved the way for more and more emulators but until then play the real thing or at very least emulatre them on your pc's.

slave.

Thats pretty cool then.

Schoolea. Its always nice to have options. It dosen't hurt eh?.

What would be the icing on the cake is a SNES emulator.

Silgon. True. No matter how long i stopped playing these old school games i still enjoy playing them again when i do.

I played SMB3 on it last night.
Only down side is lack of sound, and NES games have bad ass music

[Panthers]

if you find a rom with sound, will it work? I know I saw one with sound so I was just wondering

[Polluted]

Generally they all have sound man. This emulator just doesn't have sound support yet. Honestly it's more of a curiosity at this point as it still runs a but laggy and there's no sound of course, but it's a great first step. It shouldn't take these guys long now before they have this thing up and running with sound support and 100% speed as well.

[Dyingduck]

It's about having the "option" and "opportunity" - the choices; if it doesn't hurt, who cares?

Something is always better than nothing

[JC Magnus]

Just tried doing this myself and it worked like a charm. I was kinda shocked to see how easy it was to do, considering most emulators on consoles, etc. require modding and what not.

Can't wait 'till they add sound!

[PikkonX]

This is why everyone should keep a regular Xbox around. Plays just about everything from Atari up to N64 with no hardware modification.

[Cusco]

Nice! Hopefully Sony just looks the other way and doesn't prevent this functionality with their next software update. If they will be able to get SNES and Genesis emulation on PS3, it will be so kickass. Does anyone know if you can use the PS3 controllers, and 2 players or more at a time? Also, I wonder whether the sound is difficult to implement, or that they just wanted to get the actual graphics up and running before they tweaked anything else.
Cheers

[Topshelfcheese]

I just got this working, but I don't know how to play the games. when i use the controller, the video options just keep popping up. Anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?

[Adamalicious]

Hmm . . . how long do we think it'll be until Nintendo sues? I'd probably check it out if it had sound, but silence is a bit of a deal breaker. At least there's FireNES.

[Kirstenlottesovs]

Nintendo can't sue.. This is something created by users, which sony can't do anything about..
It'd be the same as suing your phone company for letting someone pull phone pranks on you.

Besides, with all the emulators currently running on Nintendo Wii, they really can't say anything...

Does anyone know if this emulator plays other games than super mario?

[Fanboy Slaughter]

I have something similar for my Gamecube. It's a softmod called SD media Launcher. Costs around $50 bucks but it comes with a boot disk that allows you to launch programs from an SD card inserted into a GC Memory Card Housing (i.e. emulators).
