You'll probably want to use a dedicated keyboard (but then what's the point.?) or a controller. I'm severely disappointed to be unable to play touhou on it. I tested it out yesterday and noticed that the arrow keys will lock up and ghost in combination with a large number of other keys. I think the Surface's ridiculous screen resolution and pen technology is driving the cost up more than the other hardware specs deserve to be charged (and because its Microsoft's marketing product).Įdit: I forgot to mention something really really important! The Surface 4 keyboard cover has ghosting! This might be a huge deal breaker for some gamers. I don't know too much about it, but have you looked in to the XPS and Ideapads at all? They're windows tablet competitors that are probably cheaper by direct hardware comparison. With OpenEmu, it is easy to add, browse, organize and with a compatible gamepad, play those favorite games (ROMs) you already own. For the first time, the 'it just works' philosophy now extends to open source video game emulation on the Mac. My primary concern comes from the cost factor, and if that's not too much of an issue for you, then the SP4 will probably handle all your emulation needs. OpenEmu is about to change the world of video game emulation. Dedicated emulator users are usually custom building desktops for it. The Surface Pro 4 only has one USB port.Įmulation in to the GC/PS2 era and beyond is a bit troublesome as it requires a pretty powerful CPU to run properly.
