- demo SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive BadApple!! by FLM
- Of course the "require Blast Processing" is a joke. Coming from the Sega famous marketing term in US :p
Still i am not sure you could handle that on SNES and it indeed has a weak CPU...
You seems to think that it was easy to do. Honestly no, it was not...
Making the video (with sound) fit in 8 MB and unpack it at correct speed is definitely not trivial.
If it was i guess we would have already saw that sort of animation on MD and you can search but we did not.
I don't use RLE, it would not have been fast enough... Sources are provided if you are curious. There is not any complexities, really they are quite simple but the codec development take a bunch of time ! That was the hard part. I tested many versions before getting the current one as initially i wanted to get all fit in 4MB (but then i just couldn't get the unpacking code fast enough).
As for the video choice, i think it's a good one, very good candidate for that type of demo but that's a matter of taste. - isokadded on the 2012-11-29 21:48:44

- I requested the following youtube link :

The video is taken from a real megadrive 2 (too bad it is not a model 1 as sound is better :p).
Thanks to the guy which uploaded the video (not mine). - isokadded on the 2012-11-26 22:44:29

- Honestly i really doubt you can get it on SNES. The 2bpp mode would help a bit but the CPU is really too weak to achieve real time decompression, even with the 256 resolution.
I upload the v7 version of the alternate BadApple demo (not from me) :

- Added a 8 MB version of the rom which play only in Mega Everdrive (or custom 8 MB) flashcart or hacked emulator as this one :

- This demo is not related to the one visible here but it inspired me in making this one. I was sure it was possible to do full resolution (320x224) @30 FPS and wanted to prove it :)
As the video plays at 30 FPS it indeed need to be played on a NTSC system, the music will quickly desynchronize on PAL system.
You have access to a bit of history of the demo on this forum topic :

Also the movie artifacts than can be seen comes from the original source video i used from youtube, the codec i used for genesis is lossless and is the direct conversion of the higher resolution one. - isokadded on the 2012-11-25 01:09:54
