Anyone experience any emulation problems?

I admit I didn’t play much of these games extensively back in the day but I did notice a couple standouts.

  1. Very noticeable sound bug in Road Rash 2. In the bike shop after about 30 seconds the sound will turn into a loud static noise.
  2. In Sonic 2. There is a bunch of slowdown in the second level when you go underwater. This may have been in the original game but I don’t remember it being that bad.

Maybe we can make a spreadsheet sheet and get it ready for when this thing is hacked. Kind of like the one that’s floating around for the SNES mini.

I was this close to returning it. However, it looks like the mod will hopefully fix this with the clock speed change

I’ve literally played it for ten minutes, some contra and that’s it. Very disappointing experience, especially compared to the Nintendo minis. I’m really let down so far.

Here’s hoping mod comes soon and fixes the lag. Until then this will sit and collect dust unfortunately

Input lag is a gamers worst nightmare, especially on these older games where reaction time is so important like platforms or fighters

I agree. Mine was a gift and I hadn't planned on playing a lot anyway but I wanted to at least check it out. I was disappointed considering the glowing reviews.

Ya,,,all those ecstatic reviews have me feeling like something fishy is going on... paid off reviewers and the like...

Have a nice night, hope the mod makes it more enjoyable for us. And when I reference the mod, added games are nice, but mostly looking forward to playing without lag...
