@Sono It's not an F-Zero feature, the GBA Virtual Console adds motion blur. VC injection software does allow you to turn it off, but there's no official, Nintendo-side way to change the motion blur settings, it's set per-game in the CIA. The 3DSGBA screen had a pretty slow pixel response, so a number of games just used flickering graphics to fake transparency for "free", and the map in F-Zero is one example of that.
I can't claim to know that the flickering is what causes the issue or that motion blur is definitely what prevents it, but I've played tons of F-Zero with the motion blur enabled without any issues.

That's the first time I hear of this. I was thinking about setting up retroarch on my IPS console, so that's something to keep in mind, I guess. If this happens with F-Zero on Virtual Console it might happen with retroarch as well...
I never understood why people praised the IPS panels so much, by the way.
You get better looking blacks and the 3D effect has less ghosting (or maybe I just miscalibrated the 3D effect on my TN console), but there's a scanline like effect on the screen which depending on the game really gets on my nerves...
The screen is also much darker, even on the highest brightness setting.
And the console is quite a bit heavier which makes it less comfortable to hold and the battery doesn't last as long.
Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I prefer my 2nd New 3DS XL console with TN screens.

Yes, I was one of the fools who hunted for an IPS console, only to be disappointed with the things I mentioned above when I got one...

The main advantage is the better viewing angle, which really makes the 3D look better.
I had the double screen issue occur on OFW a bunch before any part of 3DS mode got broken open, it literally is just random and I have no idea.
Right, that is true.
When use the IPS console I have the 3D effect enabled most of the time. That also helps against the scanline effect.
Anyways, I shouldn't derail this thread, I'll patiently wait until Sono presents us with a new TWPatch.

Well uh... I've been trying to get the trainer code running for 1-2days by now, and since I got it working I've been having way too much fun with it...
That's fine! I'm in no hurry! I'm just happy you are doing these things and sharing them with us.
You did all the work, seems only fair that you get to have a bit of fun messing with this.

Hahahaha. The future is finally here, I've been waiting to graphically glitch DS games by holding B since the 3DS first launched!

I also hunted and secured a Zelda edition dual ips model. The colors are much more vibrant compared to my 2ds xl tn model. I grew up on scanlines so having them feels right haha

does this have a nearest neighbour scaling filter? I find that those tend to look the sharpest, since they just double pixel rows and columns.
edit: oh that seems to be the zero interpolation one. great.
edit2: I thought this was supposed to work with GBA VC too? seems to only be working with DS games for me.

Nope. I had a forced change of plans irl, so I have even less time now than what was a few days ago.
For GBA none of the filters look good, but if you use the widescreen patch then it's really usable, and looks slightly better due to the 5/3 upscale ratio.
Well for starters. You can read the First Post of this thread. Take a look and you will find you dont just download such a thing. There are instructions on how to extract and get what ya want working.
