if in PiMAME4ALL you turn off 'throttling' Donkey Kong runs at 350%!).Ĥ. For some reason the emulator isn't 'throttling' the ROM's FPS to actual speeds and is running at the full rate it can calculate and display (e.g. Its an NTSC ROM and the others are PAL, the emulator is running at the refresh rate of the ROM (so its running 17% faster than the others).ģ.
Dependant on your region it just seems fast compared to the hardware you previously ran it on (if you owned the original console).Ģ.
Most emulators are set for NTSC emulation (60Hz) irrespective of the ROMs being run, however, some run at the Fz of the ROM be it NTSC or PAL, most have the ability to choose the refresh rate. Welcome to the Forum! How much faster is it? First thing, which region are you from? As an example USA/JAP hardware ran at NTSC 60Hz refresh compared to UK/EUR 50Hz PAL, therefore 17% faster and in fullscreen, due to 525 scanlines being displayed on 625 PAL TV's the SNES/MegaDrive displayed 'widescreen' on UK Hardware because the extra lines were missing, they were not supposed to look that way, sloppy conversions were common up until the mid 90's.
