    Dreamcast Tutorial: How To Get 20% Speed Improvements With SNES Emulation On Low Spec Hardware

    This probably is old news to some people, but maybe it still deserves some attention...

    I've posted info on how to easily achieve a full 20% speed improvement on SNES emulation on slow emulators or low spec hardware.

    While I posted it for DreamSNES, a very nice SNES emulator for SEGA Dreamcast, this info might also be useful for everyone that would like to play SNES games on DS, PSP, GP32, other portables or dated hardware like PlayStation 2 with SNES emulators available that currently do not run your favorite SNES games at full speed.

    The key to gain that much speed is simply to use European 50Hz PAL releases of your games instead of Japanese and American 60Hz NTSC versions.

    Head over to this topic at our forums to learn why.

    That's true, it would be especially interesting for the SNES Emulator on SEGA Saturn.

    An addition: further speedup can be gained when running 50 Hz ROMs on a 60 Hz (SEGA Saturn) machine. I should try it out and measure the speedup!

    I'd really be interested in hearing your test results.

    A good thing is that DreamSNES runs at 60Hz on an unmodified European PAL Dreamcast by default
