DOOM has been ported to the retro game console in Persona 5 Royal



DOOM is well-known for being ported to basically every device with some kind of input, and that list now includes the old retro game console in Persona 5 Royal. Modders KingJackSkellington and Xan1242 released the DOOMsona mod today, that lets you buy the shareware version of the original DOOM at the second-hand store in Yongen-Jaya. DOOM is fully playable and, like the other games Joker can play in his room, will grant the player a social stat upgrade when they're finished (in this case, his guts will increase) and prompt commentary from Morgana before and after playing.

The mod includes the WAD file for the shareware version of Doom, as well as for FreeDOOM and Chex® Quest, a promotional video game released by General Mills in the '90s based on Ultimate Doom. Upon completing the shareware DOOM, which only comes with the first episode, the player can purchase a full copy of Ultimate DOOM from the same store; however, since this game is still being sold commercially, the WAD file isn't included with the mod and the player must provide their own.

DOOMsona also supports any PWAD that is compatible with Chocolate DOOM, a source port of the original DOOM that aims for historical accuracy and adherence to the experience of playing DOOM as it originally released.

That looks like a Famiclone with a PAL SNES cart. Oddly specific.

The PAL SNES uses the same design as the Japanese SNES or Super Famicom. So it's a Famiclone with a Super Famicom cartridge, which makes a bit more sense :D
Although... PAL and NTSC-J Doom didn't come in a red cartridge, unlike NTSC-U.

I just remembered how you can play an upgraded Maniac Mansion inside Day Of the Tentacle.
i owned maniac mansion on nes but when day of tenacle came out on mac and was in a lucasgames bundle i was so pumped to play day of the tentacle. i never beat the game or progressed passed finding the computer that u could play maniac mansion and just played that for hours. good reminder for me to go back to day of the tentacle and beat it finally.

No, the label/sticker is the PAL style.

How about an abacus? Has DOOM been ported to an abacus yet? hmmmm?

Kidding aside, this is impressive. Successfully emulating a game inside another game is very cool!

What if...? What if when you open the DOOM game on Persona 5 you could play ANOTHER game inside DOOM inside Persona 5! Boom! My head just exploded.

I was slightly irritated that I couldn't play DOOM in Persona 5 Royal.

Now I've gotta play Persona 5 Royal again just to play DOOM.

Playing a video game in a video game. We’ve come a long way, folks.
+Planet Harrier in Shenmue and I bet there was some game-within-a-game before that too.

also Doom & Doom II are playable on a PC in Doom Eternal, and the in-game passcode to unlock the computer
is cool because it's the name of the main character of the Doom novelizations which I've read every few years since I was 10 years old, for over 26 years. they go off the rails kind of like this post but they're cool.

Actually, I'm pretty much done listening to your babble. DOOM is a game that gets ported so many times and I won't deny that.

But this doesn't mean I enjoy it, not only because I'm bad at FPS games, but... ugh. I don't even wanna tell at this point.
The real question is who asked and who cares?

    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.

    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
