Wow I never expected this thread to carry out like this, I'm sorry I posted. I was just wondering why JPCSP can't increase the internal resolution like PPSSPP can which makes a big difference in image quality. It was mostly out of curiosity that I posted this question in the first place, I was expecting an answer like "Java is not capable or way too slow" or "the authors decided against it" or something like that. Even though I don't fully understand the technical side of things, I still love to read about it and try to understand anyway. I didn't think it would become a war between "which is better".
This is far from my intentions, both are great emulators. And with JPCSP being the first emulator to have such a high compatibility and being open source, it deserves a great deal of respect and allowed other projects to blossom.
I can appreciate the amount of time that goes into any emulator that emulates any hardware system, it's a feat that few can successfully accomplish. I give a lot of props to the JPCSP team for coming this far, and leaving it open source so others can learn from the code. I know I used the phrase "blow out of the water" and I now regret that, it's my own selfishness for "HQ graphics" that led to the usage of that phrase (plus I was having a bad day) and I'm sorry. I love emulation, and I would never want to deter any author from making improvements to their emulator. I am grateful for the amount of time they put into it to make it possible.
