Nintendo 64 and its BIOS

[petronius79]

I am no expert on such technical issues but does PJ64 include the Nintendo 64 BIOS or did it find a way to override it so as not to become an illegal emulator according to the recent legislature about emulators?

If the authors have already answered such kind of question could you type the thread with the answer?

no, none of the N64 emulators have a direct copy of the N64 BIOS, and I don't even think a N64 has a BIOS (Basic Input/Output System). What the N64 emulators do is take the instructions that a N64 cart would give to the N64, translates them into something that your OS can understand and then runs the thing (very basicly).

Anyways, all of the N64 emulators are legal

yea malcoms right, if there was a n64 bios ppl would have to download it seperatly from the emu and if there was a bios, ud see the same thing when u switch it on E.g the sony logo on psx or Gameboy on gba
