How hard would it be to make an FX-9860 emulator addin for prizm? Not necessarily a full emulator but just a way to use G1A's on prizm. This is just an idea, I don't even know if it is a good idea... thats why I am posting it.

Tell me what you think. Smile

I think it's better to spend the time and effort porting old fx9860 libraries and software to the Prizm (eventually with some kind of compatibility layer) instead of developing an emulator.

Would that allow running G1A's without having to port them? Like WINE, kind of? That is what I was thinking when I said "emulator".

Well, I think it's better to port them because it doesn't justify the job of writing an emulator which can be technically impossible (little RAM, slow graphics...)
