I love this emulator, the fact that its standalone emulator is much more desirable to me as I am really not a fan of the Retroarch gui. I find Retroarch very clunky and not very user friendly at all. I really prefer the standalone emulators and wish we could get some standalone emulators for the megadrive, master system etc that work 100%.
In regards to PFBA it’s a fantastic emulator, I love the gui with the game info and the option for screenshots. I really appreciate the dev doing this emulator and hopefully in time it will get better and better. I would love to see perfect arcade emulation for some of the older games such as the konami driver, data east taito and sega system 16 games etc.
Some PFBA Bugs I’ve noticed in the neogeo games is that sometimes the sound will completely stop in a game and then this will affect every other game that you try and boot. The only way around it is to exit and restart PFBA. Some games the sound will just not play or cut off, an example of that would be “Fatal fury 1”. When you boot the game the sound works ok but as soon as it starts the first round the sound cuts off and dosent come back. Also in "real bout fatal fury 2" no music or sounds on character select screen.
Also I would love to see in the future an option of a rapid fire button, (holding down a button instead of tapping it) would be excellent for the vertical shooters. Also becxause I use the first edition of the vita I would love to see customization for the menu buttons. Currently to bring up the menu its “Start + Select” However because of the small indented buttons on the first gen model vita its very awkward to press them, so it would be awesome to have an option to assign them to something else like for eg (L1, R1 + select) for menu instead.
Hopefully we get more updates to other game performance, as currently cps1, cps2 and neogeo stuff works perfect (except for the occasional cutoff sound issues in certain games) Also a note to the dev, have you considered contacting the guys over at emuxtras? They are constantly updating FBA drivers to work on the original xbox console and the emulation is perfect. Is it something that would be of use to you, maybe porting over some of those modded drivers to the vita version? Or would they not be compatible?
Keep up the great work
