    Emulation Gaming Homebrew ROM Hack Oldies Emulator My experience & suggestions regarding Vita RetroArch for Super Mario World romhacks:

    I reinstalled the emu4vita ChimeraSNES release again, just in case I was crazy. I found the fastforward hotkey, so my bad on that. But no, I still don't see nearly as many options like VSync, touch functionality, interface options, history/playlists, frame delay, RetroAchievements, so on and so...

    Emulation Gaming Homebrew ROM Hack Oldies Emulator My experience & suggestions regarding Vita RetroArch for Super Mario World romhacks:

    I tried it just in case it ran the usual offenders like Yoshi's Island/Kirby 3 better, and unfortunately no dice. ChimeraSNES on the Yoshi's Island title screen runs at 51-55fps, while using this runs it at 40-42fps. Input lag playing Super Mario World was ~6 frames even with VSync off, so...

    Chances of a Vita slim screen mod existing?

    I'm fine with the current screen on my 2k. Here's why: In the timestamped video, you can see Russ having used RegistryEditor to improve the color range & saturation. Here's a written guide on doing so for a modded Vita: https://retrogamecorps.com/2021/04/27/ps-vita-guide/#Screen

    Emulation Homebrew Misc Emulator [Vita RetroArch] Do these things to drastically speed up loading times!

    Posting here for more awareness. Apparently for a couple years now, the latest Vita RetroArch builds have been plagued with slow loading times. People suggested me to use RA 1.9.0 because they said it was somehow better (I doubted them), but loading Yoshi's Island on 2002 core with it took a...

    Emulation Gaming Homebrew ROM Hack Oldies Emulator My experience & suggestions regarding Vita RetroArch for Super Mario World romhacks:

    I linked the 9 romhacks I've played so far, in the original post. However, the ones I'd actually recommend... hm. This is going to be a long answer because I want to be thorough. Links are embedded everywhere. A Plumber For All Seasons is a very high quality Standard: Normal hack. Highly...

    Emulation Gaming Homebrew ROM Hack Oldies Emulator My experience & suggestions regarding Vita RetroArch for Super Mario World romhacks:

    In my experience, I gravitate towards using Snes9x-2002 the most for Mario World romhacks. The audio is pretty bad though. Some custom music that you hear in romhacks, get all scratchy and eargrating on 2002. The core is also unstable; every once in a while, I'd enter a pipe or go into a level...

    Emulation Gaming Homebrew Misc I TESTED Adrenaline input lag vs. Adrenaline Bubble Manager & NoPspEmuDrm (and by extension, Chovy-sign)

    After posting my findings on the r/vitahacks subreddit, I learned through a reply that there are actually some situations in which Adrenaline is glitchy, laggy, and/or unresponsive. We observed there being lag in the main menu of the Dissidia Final Fantasy PSP games. (Of course, in actual...

    Emulation Gaming Homebrew Misc I TESTED Adrenaline input lag vs. Adrenaline Bubble Manager & NoPspEmuDrm (and by extension, Chovy-sign)

    In my opinion, Chovy-sign is more hassle than its worth. I haven't bothered getting it to work, because Adrenaline/NPED are simpler. But try it and see for yourself. If there's a game unavailable on the PSN shop, there are plenty of websites offering PSP ISOs (that Adrenaline can run). I'm...

    Emulation Gaming Homebrew Misc I TESTED Adrenaline input lag vs. Adrenaline Bubble Manager & NoPspEmuDrm (and by extension, Chovy-sign)

    People on the internet keep saying things like "Adrenaline Bubble Manager is less laggy than Adrenaline", or "Chovy-sign/NoPspEmuDrm are less laggy than Adrenaline". Nobody AFAIK bothered to test these rumors/claims. I tested on my Vita while using a 480fps slow-motion recording. I made a quick...

    Is it possible to overclock a PS Vita's display?

    Not the CPU/GPU. The display. Going over 60hz. I know the simple answer would be 'no', but I was curious and couldn't find any talk about this anywhere. I was doing input lag testing on my Vita 2k, and I noticed the ghosting on the 2k screen; it's not noticeable unless comparing directly to my...

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
