This is a buggy alpha version

Fixed bugs
* Less crashes when using compressed roms

New Features
* Rewrote the Background Tile update system, so now it delays changes to the nametables until the next frame, so that the graphics synchronized properly. No more disappearing ? blocks in Super Mario Bros. (Punchout and 4-screen mirroring is currently broken)

Optimizations
* Games run much faster in this version
* Replaced some memory filling/copying loops with faster multi-register writing code
* Very heavy optimizations to PPU status reads, almost makes PPU hack unnecessary
* Now stores fixed PRG bank inside Fast Video RAM instead of slow cartridge slot, huge speedups for this reason

What's broken:
* PPU Hack does nothing right now
* PUNCHOUT is broken
* TQROM and Mapper 74 are broken
* 4 screen mirroring is broken
* Savestates are buggy
* Don't try to use the cheat finder right now.

Internal changes which only make sense if you're the developer
* Moved some code out of IWRAM, including the multiplayer link code. (it's still there, just no longer wasting fast memory)
* Different timeout system

    @Xdqwerty, Huh, idk then. Many different brands out there. Nissin noodles are the among the best though and definitely my favorites. I've heard good stuff about Buldak noodles but they're too spicy for my taste
