@fadangalini had one as a kid as well. Virtua racing and Virtua fighter are worth checking out.

@mitu Thanks! I think I isolated the issue though: The refresh rate. I'm not sure why, but with the Pi and the same 32" LG monitor -- smooth at 60hz. When I adjusted the monitor to 50hz and set libretro to match the 2048 sample deviance went down dramatically in all the impacted emus. But I also tweaked a bit too much to be certain that's entirely it -- but that's what it seems to be thus far.

If my fix is a red herring I'll give your advice a whirl too. Thanks for another triage tip!

@mitu Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for.

I am always leery of trying something outside of the default

What's important is what works best for you. The defaults are intended to cover a wide range of use cases, but quite often the alternatives can potentially work better for specific goals. One of RetroPie's biggest strengths is that it allows you to tailor your emulation experience to how you see fit.

@saccublenda Ive found switching between discs was an issue when select-x to retroarch menu When using bin. and .cue roms. Try using just .iso roms for mutli disk games like night trap and ground zero texas. Worked for me

w00t. I updated the packages and this worked. Thanks!

I cannot find my original post to update it. Wonder if it got taken down.

@edmaul69 I apologize. I should've made clear the platform I was referring to in my first post. I've edited the post to reflect that.
