Is there any sort of speed increase in this version? I'll have to test it out... I know it doesn't really NEED a speed increase, but ya'know, it's always nice.

Yahoo!

hyper please hush... if you don't like it keep it to yourself please and thank you...

it's a good improvement when you consider what is left to making it the 'perfect' emu, as good as NES emulation can get on DC... as close to the real thing...

Wow! A new NesterDC release, I didn't expect this one. It now just feels like a new release of DreamSNES. We all now know where Fumihiko was working on all those months

. Anyway the best emu has gotten better. Up to burn...

i don't know bout ya, but it feels sort of weird using the D-pad to move the aiming thingy so that u can shoot ducks in duck hunt. Well at least we got some sort of light gun support

hey all, it's me again...

I tested out nesterDC 7 ...

Positive:

1) Better font, and it supports 50 characters, rock ridge. I think that's a great improvement since it saves us from renaming / truncating our GoodNES roms. Rarely does a GoodNES rom name exceed 50.

2) the start-up seems faster.

3) more advanced-user oriented than latter versions.

4) Memory quick saves. Great idea!

5) The speed has improved to near perfection, although I think 99% of the games run full speed.

Negative (mostly minor!):

1) Big bug I have noticed here.... when exiting game (L+R+START), if you hold down L+R too long, NesterDC will freeze at the menu. And I mean you must press the L+R very quickly, do not hold them down.

2) With bilinear filter off, side-scrolling games still appear grainy. (or does the NES actually behave in that way?)

3) First screen says select devices 0-3. Should that not be 1-4?

4) Still some unsupported roms. Spiritual Warfare for example.

-Other than those, this is an amazing release!! good work Takayama!
