Reply To: Performance Problems (SNES, N64, PSX)

Just in case you want to spend $35 on another Pi, I just tested the following SNES/N64 games on the RPi2:

Note: I am using RetroPie 2.6.0 and am using the RPi2 overclock setting from within raspi-config. I also placed my roms in n64-mupen64plus to use that emulator instead (thanks floob for your videos on youtube!)

Starfox – Runs really well now. I played it for like 30 seconds and saw no issues using this setup.

Stunt Race FX – I will have to check if my rom is corrupt or if this game just doesn’t emulate well. I was able to do everything in the menu, but after entering a game it gave an error that it was unable to create my car. It failed to render any car/track upon entering a race.

Super Mario 64 – Works very smooth. I only ran around for a bit, but it runs smooth and sounds great.

Super Mario Kart 64 – Works very smooth. I did a test race with only 1 player and that went very well.

Legend of Zelda 64 – I need to play around with this one. I attempted to load it and it never finished loading. I may need to try it on the other emulator, with a different rom, or play with some graphics settings within mupen64plus itself.
