This requires a creators club account which runs $99 a year or $49 for four months. You'll also need Visual C# Studio Express which is free. |

XNA really should have been free to hobbyists and people that just want to run code, and then $99 for people that want to develop for a commercial fee....
Oh well, at least they tried and it's not too late to make it free to run apps...
This is the biggest load of horse s.h.i.t. I have read all day. What the hell is wrong with people? $99 membership fee? For that I can go and buy a regular NES and play any game I want bug free. What has happened to our world. Can't people do things for the good of human kind anymore. An NES emulator should be free on any system. They don't even make the thing anymore. I mean come on....
The $99 isn't for just one program, it gives you access to the devlopment studio, which can run any program made with XNA....
It's actually a good deal, as visual studios is something like $800 and you can't run that code on 360....
It's really just a control measure to make sure certain programs don't get developed....but ya, for independant programmers, it should be free forsure...
psp can emulate all the old systems and its free
yea, but psp sucks. DS is even better than psp, and handhelds in general suck.
It's the worst system I ever bought. It has not been used in months, while my psp gets used daily. I do not understand how people could like the DS. That's how bad it is. At least I could see why people like other systems I dont. But the DS sucks
You forget that is only if they didnt update their firmware over v2.80 or have a new system otherwise they cant do it.
Ya PSP is garb. I sold it two days after buying it. And the homebrew is absolutely horrible. It's like trying to play games on an original Apple 2.
you guys know that you can play homebrew on all psps dont you? LOL! click on psp at the top real quick look at the top jump
I agree the price is a safety net (control), actually if you just want to have the emulator (which is not what this is just about its also to do with DEVELOPMENT) just get it on the PC which can emulate all system to (who wants to play it on a silly little PS3 screen) if you just want (would you want?) to play those old games.
PS3 + PSP in above post
I meant the PSP not the PS3 about the small screen in my post above.
The reason why the retro games sell well on portables is because they can be taken just about anywhere.
These days, when I fly, I cant imagine not having my PSP and laptop with me. I play PSP games and sometimes PC games if i feel like it.
Its like asking why would you want to play tetris on a hand held. MS is screwing XNA over on the Xbox360 if they think people will spend 99 a year to run programs other people make.
XNA is not suppose to be for applications, it was created be the intent of developing indie console games with free tools. Yes you have to pay a fee to run the code on the 360, which kinda sucks when your not the person developing the games. $99 a year to turn your 360 into a mini development kit is a pretty good deal.
We are not going to see great emulation on the 360 or PS3 until the systems are hack. I mention the PS3 also because even though it can run linux it has no access to RSX GPU which is needed for all 16bit emulator and up. SNES runs on the PS3 but very poorly, because all 3D rendering is done by the CPU.
If you want a console that can run all the emulators, get an xbox 1 and softmod it. For $80 you can have an advanced media center, load xbox 1 to the hard drive (backups), play all emulators, music, and all SD video types.
I'm hoping the 360 gets hacked so I can finally put my xbox 1 to rest, but it's not a big deal.
Wii60 mother*****ers
Looks like they re-reported on v1 instead of the just released Version 2.
V2 still has no sound, but is full speed, has 2 player support, a basic rom browser, and random fixes.

psp is nothing special its everything that u have at your home, but portable. Thats it. Wow i can take a camera with me, listen to my ipod, or play games on my completely original DS that isnt just hack and slash pieces of garbage games that i can play back at home. DS is easy to play, touch screen capable and has two screens, PSP has....um.....damn....what does it have....hmm.....NOTHING i forgot. Its just a hunk of metal thats the same old ***** that other companies try to come up with. Nothing original. PSP=suck DS=best handheld yet.Deal with it >_>
im sick of DS, its a gimmick, every game pokes at the dam screen to get things accomplished whereas PSP can play homebew, playstation emulation, Metal Gear portable OPS, Tales of Destiny, FFT, But I guess the new Super Mario Brothers are the best thing ever/sarcasm
you can downgrade the firmware from 3.03 to 1.5 to be able to use an emulator but you still need the older gta: liberty cities game to pull it off though
ds sucks ass. psp ownz it. every psp is now downgradeable of course u have 2 have gta lcs but in time u wont have 2 have it. besides the game is only 20 bux and its worth hacking ur psp 2 do all the cool *****. u can sit there and say ds is good but why is the ds good? becuz it can play mario? lmao i can play mario too. i can play music, movies, psp games, ps1 games, nes ,snes, turbo gfx,atari, gameboy ,GBA, surf internet. it does have an n64 emulator but it sux ass it can only do mario 64 LMAO all im trying to say is mario is good but u bought a ds to play MARIO which u could play on alot of systems. now u sit there and say ds is better why? how is ds better? becuz it has a touch screen? the xbox 360 doesnt have a touch screen does that mean it sux @$$?
i can tell u that psp homebrew is ALOT BETTER than xna nes emulator for 360 and plus psp homebrew is free!
