ntsc or pal ?????

[manaurys]

what the differences in this two ntsc or pal and why in most emulator the pal ones are the best emulates why

[nosound97]

PAL and NTSC are regions, PAL is Europe, NTSC is America (U) and Japan (J). And both regions are emulated nicely

Quote:The PAL colour system is usually used with a video format that has 625 lines per frame (576 visible lines, 582 for System I, the rest being used for other information such as sync data and captioning) and a refresh rate of 50 interlaced fields per second (i.e. 25 full frames per second), such as systems B, G, H, I, and N (see broadcast television systems for the technical details of each format).

Quote:NTSC color encoding is used with the M format, which consists of 29.97 interlaced frames of video per second. Each frame consists of a total of 525 scanlines, of which 486 make up the visible raster. The remainder (the vertical blanking interval) are used for synchronization and vertical retrace. Originally designed to be blank to allow for the simple analog circuits and slow vertical retrace of early TV receivers, some of these lines now can contain other data such as closed captioning and vertical interval timecode (VITC). In the complete raster (ignoring half-lines), the even-numbered or 'lower" scanlines (lines 21 to 263 in the video signal) are drawn in the first field, and the odd-numbered or "upper" (signal lines 283 to 525) are drawn in the second field, to yield a flicker-free image at the field refresh frequency of approximately 59.94 Hertz (actually 60 Hz/1.001). For comparison, PAL uses 625 lines (576 visible), and so has a higher vertical resolution, but a lower temporal resolution of 25 frames or 50 fields per second.

What this means is that PAL shows more on the screen but NTSC has a higher fps. The higher fps is what is causing performance degradation I'm assuming.

PAL games are working on 50fps and NTSC on 60fps.
If you want to dumb your Wii or GC games, make sure that tey are PAL, because you need less fps to get game to work at full speed.

OK thanks for all the explanations

PAL games can be run at 60hz display mode and they will run at 60 FPS just like NTSC ones

which means that with the added vertical lines of detail that PAL is superior

you cannot dump them with an american console, you need an european console to dump them. (not 100% sure)

Does anyone own a Japan game, besides Naruto?
