This game is put on permanent hold. At the boss in Cave of Bad Dreams, instead of tossing skulls for me to make platforms the boss consistently jumps down a pit and disappears. After 20 retries of the boss he did the same thing, so I don't know if it's a problem with the ROM or that, since I was test running and died a few times at him that it triggers him to disappear, but I'm just plain dropping this. It's a shame, because now I can't even contribute strategies to SDA....
This was the problem, and Why we stopped. I'll check again, but, Not until after the new year as I will be busy until the second. If this can work with what I assume are now newer versions of Mupen, I would say go ahead. If someone could find a way to skip this or something else will happen, I can see this happening. But that is mostly why I gave up, After completing some of the game to find it wont happen I lost motivation.

There is a Dreamcast version. I'll look into that one too. Ill also redownload Mupen and the Rom (I just got a new computer.) Good luck Exxoynm. There are lots of things, I remember a few, much information is on teh SDA page. I'll Look in this weekend.
EDIT: Allow me to elaborate on why I could not finish it. Comicalflop, who initially had begun working on it, showed me why he could not finish the game. There is a boss, in a level that has to be fought to move forward. you fight the guy on a series of platforms. The problem was, Mupen would not make the platforms appear. He showed me this, and I was on the begining of the game, and this was like 45-1hr into the run, so I lost interest.
But from what I understand there is a New version of Mupen? if that is the case, it might work. I'll ask comicalflop where he got stuck, so I can see where it is, and If anyone wants to help. Exxonym, I will post here If it does work, and pm you.

Probably not the best game choice, but I'll reserve my judgement until I watch it. Also, please use FCEUX!
i could if i would, but every time i do a rerecord, it takes time!
e.g: 1 rerecord, .5 seconds
10 rerecords: 1 second
300 rerecords: 10 seconds
it takes forever!!!
Me thinks you need to brush up on your math. .5 x 10 = 5. not 1. SO 10 rerecords would take 5 seconds.

I flew through the first two books and then crashed hard about halfway through A Storm of Swords... I feel Martin limited each character to a single main problem he or she needs to overcome, and stretched each one's single problem through the whole book. As a direct result, each chapter typically features a character striving towards his or her goal, but inevitably faces a minor or major setback. This got tiresome a little more than halfway through. The only character that still seems fresh is Dany, and she's probably the reason I'll eventually finish reading the books.
I do believe that each character's story will get better, but like I said Martin is dragging their trials on for too long. At least his foreshadowing hints that each character will get more interesting.
I have heard that 3+4 slow down a bit, but five picks up. There were only supposed to be three books though. It seems Martin could get some more out of the series which is good, because it is a good series
