Raiden cores?

Unread post by misterrocks »

Are any of the Raiden cores available? I see some reference to them online but I don't see them on the MiSTer.

Not yet, but Atrac17 is working on Raiden DX and Raiden II.

Raiden II before Raiden? Is Raiden I more complicated?

I'm surprised too but what do I know. Hopefully Raiden Fighters (and Viper Phase 1!) are in the pipeline too.

Raiden Project and Raiden DX on PS1 are almost arcade-perfect (at least the JP versions with proper tate mode), but slightly faster since the PCBs were 55hz, so it would certainly be nice to have them on MiSTer. Been a long time since I played Raiden in the arcade myself, I wonder if I'd do better with the slower speed of the arcade.

The Seibu SPI system for the Raiden FIghters trilogy and both versions of Viper Phase 1 would certainly be nice. I believe work is being done on implementing a 386 processor in MiSTer, so hopefully that can eventually lead to a SPI core.

Sometimes it's about components versus chronological order. Darren wrote his own V33 core, so we're making Raiden II / DX / Zero Team with it as a test.

It'll be a few months, got a bunch of other stuff going on. But it's in the pipeline.

How's this going @atrac17? I'm very interested in Raiden II and DX, this would be the perfect device to play them on :)
