CPS2 hack Final Fight Anniversary Edition 3 player Co-op multiplayer playthrough at ESA Summer 2024
20One of the many multiplayer playthroughs I've recorded in the latter half of July 2024.
"Greenalink you plonker, Final Fight is a CPS1 game, not a CPS2 game"
Technically you are correct but Final Fight 30th Anniversary Edition is an unofficial romhack released in 2019 to celebrate 30 years of the iconic beat em up.
It uses CPS2 hardware which greatly reduces slowdown, introduces a lot more colour palettes, has extra names as a toggle based on patreon subscribers and most importantly features 3 players.
Between July 19th to July 28th, I was at an event in Sweden known as European Speedrunner Assembly Summer 2024, raising money towards Alzheimerfonden (Swedish Alzhimer's Foundation). This was my first on-site event where I didn't participate in a full length run at all other than commentating an extra run and taking part in a Super Mario 64 Relay.
Fortunately, before the event, I purchased a second hand Avermedia Live Gamer Portable II Plus unit for like over 75% off the default price. This allowed me to record content WITHOUT a PC. There were a few caveats such as not truly supporting accurate hz output for arcade cores on the Mister (recorder will not record things below 59.8 FPS) and the recording quality isn't as good as my main capture card that is connected to the PC.
