Features
- Powerful and accurate BlueMSX emulator core featuring:
* Very accurate emulation of MSX, MSX2, MSX2+, Turbo-R. * Very accurate emulation of all sound processors; PSG, SCC, MSX-Music, MSX-Audio and Moonsound. * Multiple machine definitions, easily adaptable/extensible. * Build-in ROM database to automatically use the right ROM mapper for megaROM games. * A lot more, see BlueMSX website.
- Wii improvement regarding emulation:
* 100% smooth video emulation because of synchronization between MSX and Wii video output. * 100% smooth audio because of automatically calibrating re-sampling. * Wii video output switches automatically between 50Hz/60Hz to meet the video output standard of the MSX (Only on PAL Wii, on NTSC Wii the MSX is forced to always operate at 60Hz).
- Powerful GUI:
* Game selector with multiple directory support. * Shows two screenshots for every game. * Screenshots can be automatically added by creating screenshot from ‘home’-menu Games can easily be added/configured by editing .xml files. * State can be saved/restored from the ‘home’-menu. * Restore state menu shows the date/time and a screenshot of the saved state. * On-screen keyboard by pointing your wiimote to the screen.
- General features:
* Automatic SD-Card installation procedure, runs out of the box. * Two controllers supported for multiplayer games. * Nunchuck and GameCube controllers supported. * Classic controller supported (highly recommended!). * USB keyboard supported (Logictech wireless Wii keyboard recommended).
