[Aldaboi]

Ok thanks

It isn't part of the original O3DS range in terms of specs, so yes. It will work on a New 2DS and New 2DS XL, as well as the expected New 3DS and New 3DS XL.

Just as a reminder, New Nintendo 2DS doesn't exists

I finished mania mode on my 2DS xl (Sonic Mania Plus). It was a BLAST! Really hopeful that special stages are optimised to run faster the next update

Been wanting to try this for a long time. I only have an Old 3DS for the moment, though.

Crossing my fingers that this project isn't dead. The developer hasn't shown life signs for a couple of years... That's worrying me.

Well, you should only get worried about chances of being optimized further, for load times, and performance on the old and new 3DS's. The game, should be stable enough as it is, and the source code was released for anyone to tweak and perhaps even fork it.

By pure coincidence, from my trip to Switzerland, I managed to snag a New 3DS. The game works like a charm, and seeing it run on such a small system feels so surreal to me!

I also found a fork from someone doing God's work---it makes load times 4x faster! They say they submitted a PR to the main repository but haven't received a response. This was a year ago, so I assume this project is now abandoned. Shame!

Out of curiosity, is special stage performance increased at all?

No. From what I see, it has to do with rendering. Right now the port uses software rendering which is more resource intensive.
The developers stated that adding a hardware rendering backend was their main priority, but I don't see that happening anytime soon given that they haven't shown any signs of life over the last few months.

Right here.

Anyone know how to get mods working? As i saw a comment say they got the Saturn Mod working but i have 0 idea on how to even activate it as everything is in the right place on my SD
