Been ramping back up on A5200DS in the past week - porting over some improvements from the other dozen or so emulators I've been working on.

I've just checked in a test version 3.8a with some nice changes:

• 60Hz True-Sync. The emulation is now synchronized with the LCD display to avoid tearing (mostly improves scrolling games like River Raid or Vanguard).
• Favorites added... in the menu where you select what game you want to play, press SELECT to toggle between like (yellow heart) and love (red heart). These persist so you can always come back in and see your favorite games.
• Improved fameskip handling that always handles player-missile graphics/collisions. This allows the older DS-Lite (and when running from an R4 card or similar) to run most games at full speed without sacrificing core emulation accuracy (no more glitches where shots miss enemies). The DSi and above running something like TWL++ never needs frameskip.
• More games run more correctly - fixed games like Star Raiders so the keypad is less glitchy, improved default controller settings for some games, etc.
• Numerous tweaks, optimizations and a few specialized hacks that now allow heavy-hitting games to play at or near full speed on the older hardware... games like Caverns of Mars, Bounty Bob Strikes Back and more play wonderfully (though a few of the REALLY big games like Bosconian need the DSi hardware to play at full framerate).
