When Mednafen Saturn came out, I heard great things and was relieved I would probably be able to replace SSF. Soon after, I started reading about terrible input latency issues in excess of those in SSF (5+ frames). I read two other comments saying there was ‘no input lag,’ the sort of absolute statement I know to be wrong about any emulator and thus discounted. More recently I’ve read the standalone emulator has input latency issues but that the Beetle core does not.
Has anyone tested the core to see how it performs with regard to input latency? Is it practical to play something demanding like a shmup on Mednafen/Beetle Saturn?
I’m not trying to start rumors. Maybe someone can clear up the ones already out there.
