Mupen64Plus - N64 Emulator for the Pi
Mupen64Plus - N64 Emulator for the Pi
Not long ago we discussed the possibility of emulating the Nintendo 64 in our Raspberry Pi.
Many thought it was not possible, but a user began to rewrite the code to be executed on the GPU directly thanks to OpenGL ES 2.0 and now we can see ourselves the result...
We have a repository on Github with Mupen64Plus emulator source code. If you want to try before you will have to solve the following dependencies:
sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2-dev
Now clone the repository with:
git clone https://github.com/ricrpi/mupen64plus-rpi
Enter into the directory and run: ./m64p_build.sh
With the compiled binary, we search a ROM and put it in the Pi and run: ./mupen64plus /home/pi/mario.n64. If you haven't got any available, you can try a demo with: ./mupen64plus m64p_test_rom.v64
If you are interested in binaries, You can access an alpha released here

UPDATE: The sound is choppy at 32000 Hz, and the speed is usually between 25-50 fps. Honestly impressed.
