We can go beyond Super Sayan as a community though...

Good PS1 emulator should be possible. The Caanoo version that is 3 times slower than the GCW0, could play some 2d well enough and 3d slower but more playable speeds than in the past. The Pandora that might be 50% faster than GCW0 plays PS1 really fast. I think the machine can do it. But it needs work. A straight port is slow or doesn't work well. Maybe in few years.

But yeah, I am more interested for original homebrew in this compo, even though some well improved or new emulators would be a positive surprise.

I would also like to see the category for system enhancements. for example support for vibrations, overall joystick/mouse support through all application (which I miss most right now), sleep/hibernate function, finishing the HDMI connection etc...

Good PS1 emulator should be possible.

CPU - 32-bit MIPS (33mhz)
I havent heard of any MIPS to MIPS recompiling emulation core except the one in Daedalus PSP, which prolly would need extensive work to make more portable. :/ I'd LOVE for it to happen though!
IF someone would manage to port it though.. wow!

I am still curious how PSP pulls it off. People claim they have perfect PS1 and good N64. I have seen some videos that are fast, some are very slow, can't decide. And I have a PSP which I have still not unlocked (that's why I hate those commercial consoles for emulation and prefer openhandhelds, so many bother and didn't succeed and then didn't bother to unlock) so I cannot test. But PSP with it's 233Mhz processor (MIPS?) and GPU, how did they do it? Ok,. no GPU in some openhandhelds, but Caanoo with a good ARM at 533Mhz (and overclocked at 800) also has GPU, but the software rendering version of PCSXreARMed is much better but still not there. Is it a MIPS to MIPS dynarec on PSP that makes the magic? Or just good programming and people taking care of a good emul? Can't it be easilly ported?

I've never organized something similar, but I offer myself.

Well, at least I'll have more time after August to dedicate to GCW0.
