How bleem Made PS1 Discs Run on the Dreamcast | Tech Rules 

Sign up and comment here and tell me the best deal you got through Swagbucks! www.influencerlink.org/SHUd Hey again, everyone! I made some changes based on feedback from the previous videos. (Brighter background, talking slower, etc.) Let me know what you think! Also, something I noticed during editing: Yeah, the instruments in bleemcast for Metal Gear Solid definitely sound different from the original game, mostly because they lack reverb. It was apparently not jarring enough for me to notice during gameplay, though. The previous bleemcast games don't share this issue, since they mostly use streamed audio. Remember, if I said something incorrectly in the video, feel free to leave a comment correcting me. I'll try my best to add all the corrections to this comment. As always, thanks for watching! EDIT: Sorry, I should've mentioned that a lot of the gameplay footage is sped up, as some of you noticed. This was to make the capture device's recording errors less obvious. Rest assured, the games don't actually run too fast. Good eye, though!

Sony should have been forced to Pay for bleems legal fees. Winning by burning the competitions money shouldn't be a viable legal alternative

they won the legal court case but still had to shut their company down because of it? thats cool. good system, america.

'Our claims will bury you in legal fees to the point even though we will lose in court, you will cease to function.' Frankly the judge should have told sony to pay Bleem for damages by weaponizing the legal system to halt sales.

You, sir, are unlocking every new achievement on this platform. A 3rd high-quality video on an unknown topic is just what we need. Thank you.

Hell yeah, we got another one! You make some kickass vids my guy

3:33 RIP the hypothetical Bleem! Version of Pepsiman.

The algorithm is strong in this one, i'm happy for you.

BLEEM stands for Best Little Emulator Ever Made.

Ironically, the picture of Sonic over the bleem! gravestone was later removed to avoid legal trouble from Sega

Dude, I just binge-watched your whole channel!

Bleem! may have died on its hill, but it nonetheless played a pivotal role; The Sony lawsuit set legal precedent and emulators are perfectly legal. The acquisition of ROM (or other) files to work with them might be another matter, but emulators are incredibly important. Eventually the original hardware will have all failed and emulators (or hardware clones) will be all that's left. Also it being programmed in Assembly is bonkers. I'm more familiar with C++ and C#, but I have taken a look at a little bit of Assembly and I very quickly wanted to nope out of that.

Not only have I been playing Metal Gear on Dreamcast lately, I've also been playing Quake online with a WiFi Dreampi. People are still online on Dreamcast

"This is a little weird for the case of Metal Gear Solid, which is so dummy thick that it shipped with two discs."

Can Tech Rules go one video without saying the word piracy? Find out next month on dragon Ball z

We must realize the importance of *Free* *And* *Open* *Source* *Software* (FOSS) especially when it comes to emulation, preservation and software development (in general) it plays a important role right now (and future) a fact that we should not avoid to mention.

The legend finally uploaded again...

Did the algorithm fail this time? How does this not have millions of views like his other videos?

Few thoughts on the supposed high performance of the emulator: from what I have known there are two distinct types of emulator, the first seek to emulate every machine instructions to be as close to the original hardware and circuits as possible, and the second only cares about whether or not the game runs on the emulator or not. Because preservation and fidelity is not the concern, the second type do not actually have to emulate correctly the original hardware rather relying on workarounds and hacks to circumvent the original programming, this means you can have considerably less overhead and in some cases even take advantage of the new architecture in ways that are impossible in the original hardware. The drawback is emulators of the second type tends to only be able to emulate one or two games correctly, which is not a problem for the bleem emulator given that every bleem disc is only supposed to emulate the game they are paired with.

Wow, a channel with three videos that is more professional than decade old channels.

Fun fact: Randy (the guy behind the name Bleem) was the person who somehow ported DOOM to the SNES, so he knows what he’s doing.

Wow good video let's see what this guy also does.... Oh..

Who do you think you are for just randomly appear on RU-vid and making unexpected good content!?

Hearing Tech Rules guy say "dummy thicc" is music to my ears

This guy came out of nowhere and made two amazing videos that got over a million views each, and now he's back for more and I'm loving it. What a legend.

I'm actually proud to be an early subscriber to this channel, I know it will get bigger and bigger. This channel really deserves all the subscribers It has.

Thanks for this!

6:41 nice reference to vinny.

an ASSEMBLY emulator sounds really interesting, and the programmers at bleem must have been real deals to pull that off

I owned each Bleemcast! disc back in the day, it was great being able to play some of my favorite PS1 games in better quality. It sucks they went under.

Another excellent video!

Saw this in my recommended which reminded me to turn on that bell. Quality content once again my dude, keep up the good work!

you explained everything without going into cliches or getting lost in discussions that have nothign to do with the main subject matter. straight to the point, i like it

Dude, I love your videos! They're just so interesting and entertaining to watch. It's amazing how you make all those technical topics so easy to follow, even for a noob like me, haha. I'm really looking forward to what's coming next!

3rd video ever, 100k subs, and a sponsor congrats dude

Real interesting stuff, I really dig this style. Grats on 100k subs!

You should make more videos. You clearly have a good grasp on this kind of thing and your presentation is flawless. Great job.

I don't know much about programming, but it seems like these guys' skills were nothing short of godly.

Your 3rd video and you already have 100K+ subscribers as well as a sponsor (which isn’t as impressive but amazing than the less) and making acceptable content to the viewers. Congratulations because of the RU-vid’s algorithm causing “new” channels to grow heavily in a short amounts of time with low upload rates too. I guess you hit the jackpot (not a big one but still great) and you seem to get the hang of it. Although with your slow upload rate with this video being the latest and is 2 weeks ago. If not be expecting a huge project for now but later on. Yet, the content you make is impressive and blocks the hatred and low effort content-criticism from viewers of your videos. None the less you make great content for the time being (of course considering this is the 3 video you created and is learning from there hence the top comment of yours). But I’m indeed quite impressed from that possibility. Either way I hope you enhance the content you create for us viewers to watch and learn as you make more! This was just my point of view of what I thought the RU-vid’s algorithm has to offer for channels like yours. Again, I hope you improve with my good luck! - Okwardi

I am absolutely loving the VR end fanfare on _bleem!._ It sounds like it's being played through a Casio. I guess the emulator couldn't handle audio post-processing that well. The reverb did wonders for the atmosphere of the soundtrack.

good job on this video! I love how you focus on really niche subjects that I otherwise would've never known about! really great learning opportunity for anyone watching your videos

Your videos are really well structured! Really enjoying them so far. Bleem/Bleemcast is a really interesting point in gaming and emulation history, so it's nice to see more people talking about it.

When you get 100k subscribers with 3 videos you know you're a god

Congrats on 100k subs, though its crazy how fast you got there with only 2 vids. I dont think many can say they did that.

Real happy to see you made another video. Really great stuff & I look forward to seeing the next one.

Love your videos! I would’ve assumed this type of editing would’ve taken years practice but you got the hang of it pretty quickly.

almost perfect video save for the part where your playing Law

3 vids and 100K subs!?! That's pretty good. AND A SPONSOR!

The quality of your videos is super awesome. THIS is what quality content looks and feels like. Very interesting topic aswell! Good job

You made a quality video, with an informative topic, used real hardware to test and capture the games. Not only explained in a very easy way what an emulator is and what it does along with how. All the while providing your very own personal point of view after using the hardware/software yourself. Not to mention the whole investigative work. Keep up the great work!

Found this through the algorithm. I’ve surprisingly watched your other 2 vids in the past. Subbed now!

I dont onow how I founf your first video right when it came out but I am very glad I did, thank you :)

Again, an excellent video! Love the editing and everything!

This is the highest quality content a pretty much newborn channel could make. And it just so happens to be my favourite type of content. Keep up the work dude, this is really worth it, and your subs are the proof.

Just out of curiosity, how come the two vids back to back then the third one months later? Can we expect sporadic random uploads at the same rate, or did stuff get in the way and now your schedule is cleared up again. Not trying to rush or be demanding, just want to know what to expect. Love your videos! 👍

Tech Rules: *exists* RU-vid Algorithm: I'm gonna start this man's whole career.

I used to beta test and do support for bleem! back in 99/2000. Was part of their E3 booth. Good times.

It’s always great to see another video from this channel

Nice vid man, keep up the good work. Also, didn't Sega make any legal actions against Bleep team?

100k.... Wow I subbed at 300 good luck and keep going with your amazing content

All theses years on the internet and I never thought I would find this kind of thing interesting, love your vids man

you make some nice videos, been waiting for this. congrats on 100k

Some think bleem stands for Best Little Emulator Ever Made

I mean, to be fair a good optimizing compiler (on modern hardware) will almost always write faster assembly than a human can. I'm not saying you shouldn't read the x86_64 instruction set (especially useful if you have insomnia), but parallel programming will probably have a more prolific effect sooner.

Nice to see another video from you, and also nice to see a bit more insight into Bleem!

High-quality content man, I am glad I get to see you grow!

Could you make a Video about the early days of hacking the wii? That would be really nice. I like your videos

3 videos and 100K subscribers that fast? It's unbelievable, but it's amazing.

Everything you make is masterly crafted. Incredible content.

Dude, your content its SO GOOD, please keep it up

A tech rules video without 1 mil views? *U N N A C E P T A B L E*

I saw this before the notification came up on my laptop, so Im faster than RU-vid

just binged your whole channel

I love your hyper specific content, congrats on getting sponsorships so quickly too. Keep it up

Bleem stood for “best little emulator ever made”

Wtf good vid high quality but damn 3rd video and a sponsor

Good to say we are all actually proud of this youtuber for such high quality/non-clickbaity/ original content, im happy i found him and got reccomended on by youtube :) Im not even a hacker nor know any coding methods but as a long time gamer/tech enthusiast, i have recently taken a huge interest in the field and the things it can accomplish

Score! I was hoping you'd upload again! Keep up the grzat videos mate, love your work

6:44 *_DUMMY THICC_*

Let's hope the algorithm favours you again, my guy. Good content 👌🙌

You deserve major props. Considering how young this channel is, you're doing really well. Keep it up!

Yay, another awesome video! I actually had just watched the 3DS one again today before this video was uploaded!

This channel is an unprecedented success story, I’ve been around RU-vid since 2005 and I’ve never seen a channel grow this fast in only 3 videos. Three extremely high-quality videos of course, but even with such high-quality, success this fast is miles outside the norm. I hope things can keep going so well, I’ve been absolutely loving these videos. Every one of them takes such an obscure topic and makes it absolutely fascinating.

I was just watching your two other videos, thank you for giving me a third to watch!

Actually, C++ is mid-level, meaning a blend of high- and low-level. It's a hybrid.

"slippery when wet"

i’m gonna be super addicted to this guys videos

Just realised i have watched all 3 of your videos without realising there from the same channel. Then i go check what else youv'e done and... yeah. Amazing videos btw. Keep it up.

Pfft subbed af, 3 videos an 100k subs lmao niceee

"emulating a game is harder than simply playing a game programmed to run on a console" wii u: huh? what? i can't hear you *runs wii games in an emulator *

Dude, your videos are SO GOOD! Cheers from Mexico.

I remember buying the bleemcast for mgs at gamestop when I was a kid love it and got one now

I could've sworn that "Bleem" stood for, "Best little emulator ever made". Though, that could've just been what users named it.

Swagbucks is a literal scam. I used the link in the description and got no extra money and the gift cards would require months to get. I like your channel, but please don't allow scams to sponsor you.

God I love this channel. I've rewatched all your vids so much

i was excited to see this in my notifications, your videos are great and i'm looking forward to more~!
