Generally speaking, gpSP is faster than mGBA, but also less accurate. Despite that, some games work better in gpSP than mGBA, and vice versa, so it might not be a bad idea to use both interchangably.

And yeah, I've found that the build from Dec. 29th works pretty well for either emulator, so you might want to stick with that one :)

I've seen a lot of stuff about certain builds not working, I wish to play GBA games on my N3DS emunand, which build and emulator would you guys suggest?
Alright I'm back! (And with another question :P) I'm also looking at running SNES games on my system (Look at the post I quoted to learn what system that is), this includes games that use the special chips, what emulator would you guys suggest?

I just tried deleting the cfg and it just gives me a error saying it cant find the cfg file. Is there any fix for this? I really wanna play the simpsons arcade game on my N3DS.

I wouldn't expect much from games using SFX. Overall, PocketSNES, CatSFC, and CatSFC Plus are your best bet. PocketSNES will be a bit faster but some games might only work with the other two, so I'd experiment around with it. I haven't messed with them much since I'm on o3DS, so BlargSnes is still my best bet.

Huge progress on genesis plus gx plus and gpsp looks still a bit laggy but it starts getting some progress. Good job so far libretro team for the noticable progress.

PocketSNES works fine on O3DS although it has few slow downs on loading but it goes down only to 40 fps so that's huge progress and 50-60 while playing. (I tested on Illusion of gaia french version)

Main thing I've been playing is Gradius III and it runs far better on BlargSnes than PocketSNES. It's a constant 40-50 on there, which I don't consider remotely playable. Then again, RetroArch is still in testing and development, so I don't expect it to be playable until there's a stable release.

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I like being immature.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Let be immature online ffs.
