Homebrew [PSA] The lastest mGBA nightly runs pretty fast.

[Pickle_Rick]

It's way better then it was before.

Is the sound emulation a bit better?

For the games that run full speed now, it's pretty much perfect.

What about Golden Sun 2?
That's my defacto ROM to test mGBA on any system.
It always used to stutter in the 3DS port, how is it with the latest nightly?

Probably still stutters. I said this was faster now and ran "some" games full speed now. AGB_FIRM is still better at this point. Most games that used to run at like 20fps now run at 45-52fps. It's getting there.

Tried it, waaay better than it was. But still needs a bit of improvement

Neat, I might try it out later today.
I found previous builds really bothersome to play with for Golden Sun 2, not even frameskip 2 helped there.

Too bad AGB_firm is severely limited in the no. of features like save state, but I guess it's something. I hope mGBA keeps improving.

Well yeah, it's not an emulator.

Who goes to the deep web for roms? LOL. You can use any search engine and get any rom you want.

Still wouldn't need to go to the dark web. Lol. Just use a VPN.

That was sarcasm

And games that I like/love, need physical copy
Well i have around 325 games so far

Ah, well it wasn't obvious at all. That's totally something you could've done.

So, what am I missing? Latest Nightly I see is 7-9, and the latest stable is 7-16. Why would you use a nightly that came out before the last stable?

I know, it uses DS mode, which is closer to a VM than emulation, it's still unfortunately, limited.
