Night Slashers - versions, emulators, recommendations

Hi everyone…

I’m running RetroArch on a Samsung-SM-T377V.

Two Questions…

I’ve tried several different versions of the game Night Slashers (nslasher.zip, nslasheru.zip, and slashers.zip), and they all run slow and choppy. Audio and video.

I did some research myself, and it seems like this game is just problematic for most people all around. Does anyone know if that’s the case? Or, if I’m just not using the correct ROM + emulator combo?

So far, the best luck I’ve had is slashers.zip + FinalBurn Neo. I increased the skip frame rate, which helped, but is definitely noticeable.

So, I’m wondering if anyone has any tips.

The tablet I have Samsung-SM-T377V is one I got for free, which is why I’ve been using it. I’ve got an iPega extendable controller, which is great. Would upgrading to something like a Windows tablet allow me to play games like Night Slashers more easily? Or is it just one of those games that’s always going to be buggy?

Thank you!

:metal:

That game is not buggy at all in FBNeo, on the contrary iirc deco32 hardware emulation is near-perfect on FBNeo, it’s just that emulating this game is almost twice more demanding than pgm, which already doesn’t run full speed with mame2003plus on that tablet.
