How microsoft handles piracy in general is gabe newell levels of brilliant. instead of trying to stamp it out like sony they basically said "we'll let you emulate but in a controlled environment". add on top of that gamepass making pirating current gen games pointless because its so much easier to pay $15 then it is to hunt for hours on shady websites for games and hack the console, there is zero reason to pirate on an xbox.
Most attempts at fighting piracy come from a complete misunderstanding of piracy; they think it's just a bunch of assholes wanting free shit. As Gabe Newell said; it's about a service problem, not money. If you offer all the games a player could want in an easy-to-access and cheap service (gamepass), they have no reason to pirate. Stuff like aggressive DRM, locking the game to a horrible service (Cough Epic Games Store Cough Cough), don't offer backwards compatibility on your console, overprice ports of previous gen games, locking out emulation, etc. will absolutely cause pirates, ironically.
It also means more devs will be making Homebrew even without the system being hacked. Which means lots of Homebrew will be ready for/if the system gets busted open by hackers. Less waiting for Homebrew.
Also: they set the challenge bar high, so for those who like to reverse engineer and crack things, they'll still do it but it will a) be more rewarding challenge b) likely happen after the useful life of the console.

Price will come down eventually, many will eventually want to offload this system to upgrade to the series x, so purchasing used will be a plentiful option soon enough, just a thought...
Once the stocking issues subside, you can always acquire an xbox through microsoft's xbox all access program.

@@ebolaboi Yeah it can run the shitty PAL version of Tekken 3 at 50FPS with inconsistent frame timing on a mediocre emulator loaded with graphical errors that gives worse results than your typical smartphone. But yes if you want to pay $50 for that experience then it's definitely there.

Very impressive. I am especially impressed with Saturn emulation working so well. That system has been historically one that has been extremely difficult to emulate due to the architecture. I didn't expect to see it running fluidly to be honest. Big props to Microsoft for offering a dev mode to allow homebrew developers to run their creations on the hardware. This is a great alternative as in the past consoles had to be hacked to gain access...which of course went hand in hand with piracy. This is a good way to appease the people who just want to run their own code while still maintaining the security of the console.
THANKS FOR DOING THIS PROMOTION TO THE DEV MODE! I've been sharing it many times on your videos and I am glad you throw some light in this!. I hope more devs do homebrew here!
I know Nintendo would never in their life allow this, but imagine if Microsoft added a Retrogamepass to their systems so you could play a whole slew of older games (for a small price because we know Nintendo wouldn’t allow these games to be played for free). $300 for a brand new console that can run new games, plus 360 and original Xbox games AND N64, GameCube, Wii, DS, and many other games is practically an unbeatable deal.
You've got my attention, this isn't something I had considered at all. Gamepass + varied emulation from the couch is enticing. Sometimes I just don't want to sit at my desk. Plus I just find running emulators on different machines interesting for some reason. I'm curious what we'll see regarding adapters for various older console controllers.
Yes, yes.... I love this kind of stuff and we can do it with consoles easily now. Thank you Microsoft for Dev mode, and thanks to the emulator makers. This is becoming quite amazing. I know emulation is nothing new but it's awesome to see vids on this.
@@geovani60624 And cheaper games, not having to pay for online, cheaper to upgrade, exclusive titles, way more input options, infinite backwards compatibility, etc, etc. Don't get me wrong I'm no "PC elitist"; I love my Xbox as much as the next guy but when you say something dumb like "dethroning PCs" because it can run a few emulators, I feel the need to correct you. It's like saying a TI-84 graphing calculator "dethrones the Xbox" because it can run a gameboy emulator.
@@critikalfade playstation would probably do the same thing and they probably won't even add it and developer mode was meant to be used to create games 20 bucks isn't much for how many games it can emulate
Dang I was skeptical on even considering purchasing a Series S. But this has definitely convinced me. Now I just have to find one at a reasonable price 😂
Reasonable price? Lol. Yea... throw this good piece of hardware towards you for nothing. Get a fucking part time job at a dunkin donuts drive-up and you will be able to buy this shit.
To be fair, rpcs3 probably won't run perfectly in the emulator's current state. Xbox Series S/X uses a Zen 2 CPU clocked at 3.8ghz. There are plenty of videos of rpcs3 on PC Zen 2 CPUs. Even overclocked to 4.2ghz or above, Zen 2 struggles to achieve full speed in higher end games such as Uncharted, Red Dead or TLOU (some less demanding ones like Demon's Souls are fine though). Even the massively faster Zen 3 or 9th/10th gen Intels still aren't always up to snuff. RPCS3 is still improving though, so hopefully speed improves as well.

This was uploaded in November last year. I hope to see an update on this in a recent video and how it handles on the Series X compared to the Series S!
@@Benger2185 Still, a good rpcs3 port could actually mean PS3 games running well as the series S itself is basically a pc with a 5500xt and a 3rd gen ryzen 5, which can make for a pretty competent PS3 emulator. As for the series X, I'd say it'll plow through the games.
Me, a few months ago: I bet hackers are going to tear the new generation open as soon as the consoles come out. Me, now, after being aware of Dev Mode in XSS: *Microsoft surprised me*
This is one of the many reasons that microsoft has been killing it in the category of consumer benefits. You would never see this on a ps as xbox has been taking the stance of open features for the consumer. Ms should keep this positive trend going
I appreciate the amount of attention you are giving to the Series S. I know it is not the "Shiny/Bad Boy" of the Series consoles, but it will certainly be the best seller with that enticing $299 price tag. I sure home that you are hitting your target for views and engagement... you deserve it.

One request/suggestion: Please consider adding either an on-screen label or using UA-cam's chapters feature to show what game is currently being displayed. But again, this is great, and I don't want to make it sound like that nitpick suggests this video is in any way bad.
@@raiden_pb Lol, Nintendo loves selling nostalgia to it's fans and people will buy it. Heck, even their latest games are ports from the Wi U which are 60 dollars. I have a switch but my games are mostly third parties.
@Jacob S I’m sure the One X would do a much better job than the OG One. But Emulation on the One was rather bad. I’d do some research to make sure it’s worth it before you spend the $20. Unless you’re a student, if you’re a student with a .edu email you can get it for free. You have to sign up for some Microsoft program, I don’t remember which
I was thinking the same thing lol. I might just have to pick up an XBOX this gen being a Sony and Nintendo owner my whole life I might have to "Switch"(no pun intended) it up this year.
Honestly, judging by how good yuzu runs on my 6 year old laptop I wouldn't be surprised if xbox gets the whole switch before Nintendo launches something even remotely similar to virtual console
MVG has convinced me to buy the 2ds, WII U and OG Xbox in the past, purely for the emulation those consoles can provide. Now after forking over $750 AUD for a PS5 (which I wholeheartedly love) I wasn't planning on getting an Xbox anytime soon....... After this video, I have quickly joined the hunt. Dam you
Hearing about Microsoft being laughed out of the office by Nintendo, when saying "Nintendo games would run so much better on Microsoft Hardware". I get the feeling that this is partially a troll move towards Nintendo.
Meanwhile at Microsoft! (present-day) Development Coordinator: We have had 50k signups to the development program! 2021 going be a good year for indie titles! Haha, think again!
retroarch already has the Play! core to run PS2 games actually. It just has compatibility issues with a lot of games as of now. If a PCSX2 core is coming to retroarch most PS2 games will run flawlessly.
seriously, why the hell did sony cut PS1 back compat from the PS4 and PS5? it's extremely easy performance-wise and they have their own emulator with really good compatibility. every model of the PS3 had it (either hardware or emulation), the PSP had it, the Vita had it, there's no reason for PS1 emulation to not be a thing on a modern Playstation console.
@@alicev1500 That's where you're wrong. Not every PS3 was able to play *all* PS1 or PS2 titles. Very limited like the XB1 was. The PS3 costed hundreds more than the PS4 when it first came out just because of backwards compatibility. You have to ask yourself if that extra money is really all that worth it for a nostalgia fix. Even my phone can play PS1, why does my PS5 have to waste its tech on that? Just my opinion. It's not worth it long term for the player or the manufacturer. Ask 2006 Sony lmfao
Woah! Awesome stuff... Killer emulator!!! Can consider buying one for emuing. Not huge on emulation/modding/jailbreaking n such but this is kewl. I've got PS3+PS4+Switch+PC.
most dev kits are free, even dev mode can be unlocked on your android phone you can download the sdk on your computer and start testing your apps for nothing so this really isnt a cheap way to do development its more of a clever way to sell "emulation" mode

Price will come down eventually, many will eventually want to offload this system to upgrade to the series x, so purchasing used will be a plentiful option soon enough, just a thought...
Once the stocking issues subside, you can always acquire an xbox through microsoft's xbox all access program. Its a line of credit to purchase an xbox one/series console. the series s will cost $25 a month for 2 years, but it comes with game pass ultimate (which includes xbox live) for the duration of the loan, which also has no interest charges. its a good deal.

Very impressive. I am especially impressed with Saturn emulation working so well. That system has been historically one that has been extremely difficult to emulate due to the architecture. I didn't expect to see it running fluidly to be honest. Big props to Microsoft for offering a dev mode to allow homebrew developers to run their creations on the hardware. This is a great alternative as in the past consoles had to be hacked to gain access...which of course went hand in hand with piracy. This is a good way to appease the people who just want to run their own code while still maintaining the security of the console.
This is how well it works out-of-the-box. Imagine what it'll be like when emulator devs start optimizing for this.
It's been there still xbone era. So...

I know Nintendo would never in their life allow this, but imagine if Microsoft added a Retrogamepass to their systems so you could play a whole slew of older games (for a small price because we know Nintendo wouldn’t allow these games to be played for free).

Even overclocked to 4.2ghz or above, Zen 2 struggles to achieve full speed in higher end games such as Uncharted, Red Dead or TLOU (some less demanding ones like Demon's Souls are fine though).
