SEGA Saturn 2D games
-
Hello friends, could games like Street Fighter Alpha 2, Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter, X-MEN Vs Street Fighter, Mega Man 8, Akumajō Dracula X or Night Warriors work on a pi 4? I know 2D games were the Saturn's bread and butter so I was wondering if those games could work on a pi
Mine is overclocked at 1950 MHz and the CPU at700

I'll copy my answer(s) from the other topic about "saturn 2D games on pi4" for anyone also interested in this :
- i didn't hear of a single game that run full speed on pi4 if you disable the auto-frameskipping, meaning some games might run "full speed", but that's at the cost of non-smooth animation since they won't render every frames
- expect 3 frames of input lag as the best case scenario, i've seen some of those games going up to 7 frames of input lag
- lots of those games are arcade games already available on mame/fbneo, with far lesser input lag (sometimes down to 0 with runahead), no frameskip, and no known glitch. another part of those games is available on psx, in a far better state of emulation too.
So tbh, except if you don't mind the very subpar emulation, yabasanshiro should only be considered for its playable exclusives, which are very few on pi4 since most 3D games won't run full speed even with the auto-frameskipping.
And for anyone wanting to play those fighting games arcade console ports for the training modes, you might be interested in looking at cheats on arcade emulators instead, they allow to infinite pretty much anything (life, time, combo bar, ...).
