      Deleting the cfg files then reinstalling, (in my case, that included emulator-specific cfg files,) did the trick. You've bailed me out of having to redo everything, thanks.

        @slimy forwarding this greeting to @dankcushions and @Darksavior :-)
        Have you tried Armed Police Batrider, just for fun? See above correspondence.

          @darksavior I did and it seems like it worked. My go-to point for latency testing has always been Batrider though, and this surely plays slower (=input laggier) than it did before. But I have not tried updating MAME2003 from source, will do this soon.

          Maybe Batrider is generally just a game that's on the limit of the pi.. I tested a bunch of shooters and fighters yesterday and they all seem fine now.

          You really should use FBA for certain Toaplan and Eighting / Raizing games, firstly due to the performance being better and with regards to
          some games the Emulation of the sound and music is 100%............

          I use FBA for all these for the above reasons

          Armed Police Batrider
          Batsugun
          Battle Bakraid
          Battle Garrega
          Dogyuun
          Fire Shark
          FixEight
          Ghox (Next FBA release will have sound)
          Kingdom GP
          Knuckle Bash
          Out Zone
          Rally Bike
          Sky Shark
          Sorcer Striker
          Truxton
