      Tested on a pi4 overclocked to 1950mhz. Using raspbian lite with latest cloned retropie pi4 branch repo.

      Lr-NeoCd (built myself months ago on pi3)
      https://github.com/libretro/neocd_libretro
      It supports CHD and can skip loading screens. Ran fullspeed on a pi3 too.

      These cores I extracted from latest Lakka nightly.
      Lr-Mesen
      https://github.com/SourMesen/Mesen (I didn't see a mesen repo on libretro's github so I think this it)
      ~60fps
      Lr-bsnes-hd
      https://github.com/libretro/bsnes-libretro
      Normal games ran at ~60fps. Yoshi's Island title screen was 50fps but in-game was ~60fps.
      I tried the mode 7 hd scale to 2x on Mario Kart but it slowed down to ~49fps.

      Not sure how much improvement can be done on speed on the lakka cores, but I'd still love to have these in retropie-setup. Thanks.

        This is already added in RetroPie, but it's masked for ARM systems - https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/blob/master/scriptmodules/libretrocores/lr-bsnes.sh.

        EDIT: actually, that seems to be the bsnes_accuracy core, the hd version is at https://github.com/libretro/bsnes.

          @mitu Yes, that version's too slow for a pi4.

          Offtopic, I noticed you have a pr on retroarch 1.7.8.4 but it won't show the fps on some cores. It was a fixed in a later commit, if you want to add that.

            @Darksavior Yes, it's annoying. I know about the FPS bug, I tested the patch and it's ok. There are a few more bugs besides the FPS counter that were fixed after 1.7.8.4, we'll see if the PR will bump to the next release or include the patches.
