But someone said the graphics on N64 are way better.
On emulator, depends on the settings.
On REAL Hardware (which I own both the N64 and PS1 version), nu-uh, no way.
They use some different kind of filters, which means that some locations or cutscenes in the game "might" look good on N64, and sometimes it doesn't look pretty. I'd just focus on the PS versions.
Can you tell me how's MOTB? Do you play on dungeons and stuff like Legends? Or just fun mini-games on your way to infinite wealth?
It's actually both. One of the dungeons you visit in MOTB is the Nakkai Ruins, where you can find an ancient treasure, and tons of revisits in the same dungeon will lead you to infinite wealth. When you have played as Teisel Bonne in the Intro Stage which is the path TO the Nakkai Ruins, after that, you have the choice of selecting smaller missions before you meet Mr. Loath and pay him so you can rescue Tron's brother Teisel.
Among the missions are Bank Robberies, Container Transports (this one forces you to push or carry big boxes strategically, it's like a puzzle maze mission), and there's also missions where you have to gather up animals from farms, and find more treasures inside dungeons with the help of your Servbots and a flying propeller-driven object called Finkel.
I say you should play all of the missions, but if you get too tired somewhere (especially if you have problems with the Container Puzzle missions), just revisit the Nakkai Ruins and gather up enough Zenny and you will reach the Last Level in no time. ^^
I say it's all worth it because of the wonderful childish script and the humor. I love cartoon/anime-type games. ^^
Just realized I do have ePSXe. Would you check my plugins to see if they are the best for my PC
Anything with Pete's on it is good enough. ^^
As I understood it, the main differences between 64 and PS were loading times (very short on 64)
Maybe, but still not that noticeable, because when switching locations (like say you enter a door), the game shows a "door-entering" scene, so the game will load while that happens, which acts like shortening the loading time, on both PS and N64 versions (or pretty much any version).
and voiceover sound quality (quite low on 64).
Correct. Plus, there are a lot of music and other sounds cut off from the N64 version, like the CD-display music you can hear in the Music Store in Apple Market. In the N64 version, they were removed, and on the other versions (especially PS and PSP), they were kept. ^^
But last I tried playing 64 emulated it had some fairly significant bugs like not being able to see walls until you stood right next to them, so I'd go with ePSXe.
Excellent choice. ^^
Finally, to everyone, if you can just look past the language barriers, the PSP versions are the better versions on all points.
Thanks to the hardware of the PSP, a port from PS1 to PSP makes many elements load and play better than intended. When you run around in the slow underwater dungeons in the second game (especially Nino Ruins), with the added processing power of the PSP, the frame rate and the overall aspects of the underwater ruins runs wonderfully well, while on the PS version, everything moved way too slow. I will try and show a demonstration of this on actual hardware.
And every cutscene in the PSP versions are subtitled (but in Japanese tho, but still a good thing compared to the past versions, which didn't have them in the first place). I mean in general, a lot of aspects in the PSP versions load and plays as close or better than the PS1 versions, and you can set the screen to traditional 4:3 ratio or 16:9 wide screen if you want to.
The reason PS1 "would be" better than PSP though, is the added L2 and R2 buttons for lock-on and things like that. PSP doesn't have those extra buttons, so to be able to lock-on to an enemy, you have to hold down both L and R shoulder buttons. Depending on what kind of player you are, it can be both a nuisance, or a comfortable thing.
And instead of being forced to find "Rockman DASH 2 Episode 1" along with Tron ni Kobun on some rare Ebay/Yahoo Auction, that game is included with the PSP version of Rockman DASH 2. ^^
I'll spam some more screens and translations if you want to try the PSP version.
If you want more specific DASH/Legends questions, I'm right here. ^^
