Alright... I have a little challenge for you, even if you have not played or seen this game before...
Contrary to what you may have been led to believe, The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon's PS2 & Wii graphics are NOT the same!
The one and only tweak made to the graphics is it being rendered at 2x its original resolution on both emulators (Dolphin and PCSX2), with no further changes applied. It's all stock. Can you tell which one is the Wii and which one is the PS2 version of Dawn of the Dragon?
Can you tell which screenshot is the Wii and which is the PS2 port of the game? I doubt most can guess it right.
Hint: The Wii and PS2 DON'T have the same graphics and one of them DOES have better native resolution, shaders, environment effects and elements as well as higher resolution textures.

Alright you folks, here's the answer: The Wii port of Dawn of the Dragon has better graphics than the PS2 port. Not by much, but they are better. The second screenshot looks better because it is better. It is a screenshot from the Wii port. And the superior graphics on the Wii version don't go only to textures, effects and resolution, it also applies to the entire interface of the game, all the UI elements and menus too. The hardware of the PS2 is simply not powerful enough to render the game in higher fidelity. The Wii's is not that much more powerful either, but it is superior, so it can do more. I really would like to make a video about this some day.
Wii > PS2.

Unless I am forced to change my plans, another placeholder for the suspended Wednesday trucking streams will take place tonight. Tonight I finish my The Legend of Spyro: Dawn of the Dragon speedrun and right after we'll be Cruis'n the USA.
Follow me on Twitch to catch all that!

As if the start of my day already wasn't bad enough as is, I was washing my favorite mug to make me coffee, and I hit the handle on a dish in the sink and it broke. I hope super glue can fix it it. ;-;

As am I. I glued the pieces of the handle back together but now I'll have to wait a day or two to know if it's good enough or not. ;-;

I couldn't do it on-stream, but off-stream, with no need to share brain power with commentary and reading chat so all of it can be dedicated to focusing on just the game, I finally made it! I've unlocked event 51 in Melee. I beat this and I get to unlock Final Destination! At last. I've unlocked event 51. I beat this and I get to unlock Final Destination. The only unlockable that left, that I know of, that interests me.

I just submitted my CV to a job posting for a home-office position with requirements that match my experiences, with one exception. Doesn't hurt to try, though. Wish me luck, I guess?

Confirming to everyone that there won't be a Wednesday stream, Gaming Friday and no Chill Art Sunday on the following dates: 24th, 26th, 29th of November and 1st of December. I'm departing tonight with my dad for his birthday trip and should only return by the 2nd of December so until then, all streams are on hold.
But follow me on Twitch anyway to catch all future streams when I get back! https://www.twitch.tv/mike_dragon/

About an hour for today's Chill Art Sunday and a transformer just exploded outside. I've got no power and God knows when it's getting fixed. It's also way too hot and I can't have my fan to help because of it. ;-;

They kind of did, but it was already rather later to start the show when I got power back. ;-;

So far, as of writing this post, only one episode of my new series, "Until The Game Over", is out. However I already have other 6 episodes ready for release (5 of them are already in my YouTube channel but set to automatically premiere and go public at a later date) and another 7 already recorded and waiting to be edited and uploaded.
I should release a new episode every week on Tuesday at around 11 AM or 12 PM (eastern time) from here until at least January 2024. Though if I can keep coming up with fun or interesting games that fit the description of the series, a weekly upload schedule may become a permanent thing. If you like retro gaming and/or is simply interested in finding something new to play, then you might like this new series.
For now, here's the first episode:

I like it quite a lot. Actually lately I've been enjoying the Commodore version more than the Sharp X68000 and the arcade original, which are by far the way superior versions graphically and sound-wise. For reference, here's what the Sharp X68000 port is like:

Do you mean how much I liked it or how does one get to get it running so it can be played?
