Hey man, its ok listen, i already mentioned that my normal white wii gave me issues running Wiistation and even WiiSX 2023 via USB and SD card with the dreaded 19 pauses every 3 minutes, but let me tell you, before i acquire that white wii, i emulated mostly on my Wii Mini (the red toploader one) because that one was a gift from my sister years ago, and i been waiting several years up until a modding method surfaced, and last year, i indeed soft modded it finally, and went broke with emulators, mainly SNES, NES and GBA, but one day mGBA started to run into problems with Wario Land 3 which paused and sustained on a single music note and softlocked, so i track down a regular wii because i was also having issues with some apps not working properly, then i read that many apps don't work with wiimotes with Wii motion Plus integrated, such as the Atari 2600 emulator, so i gave up on those, it was on the regular wii that i run into issues with PS1 emulation, so i tested the Wii Mini, and they run with no pauses there, and so far mGBA doesn't seem to screw up lately.
The point is, i recommend getting a Wii Mini and modding it which is harder then the methods used for the normal model, because there's only one mod method for the Mini and that could turn people off (i had to get a laptop and run linux with an USB Bluetooth receiver and run command code to get it to work), but to tell you the truth, emulation performance seems to wildly be variable across the wii revisions, specially with emulators like these, sounds like a bad deal but if you don't have a real psx, let alone the cash and methods to either modchip it or invest on PSIO or Xstation, i think you should keep looking around every few months for updates on Wiistation, besides lightrec is only barely over half a year old, and we hit several leaps in performance and compatibility, its still obviously a bit of a road to go, just the fact that we don't really know what other games are still riddled with softlocks or DSI crashes, and have them fixed on a regular basis cannot be done yet, only step by step, and lightrec changes can also accidentally breaks stuff too, but things arent too bad all things consider.
I was disappointed with the PS1 emulation scene around a year ago but i stuck with it just because i wanted a way to play PS1 on my CRT and not on my PC, and when Wiistation got its rebrand from its original WiiSXRX2022 title, it seems like things were slowly but surely looking like the efforts were starting to being felt, even when progress was very small, but with some patience, and care, things can make a difference.

Wall of text aside, i playtest Darkstalkers 3 on PS1 and while it runs at full speed, there's an awful graphical mess on the right corner of the screen that looks very ugly, but i was running the uncensored patch, so ill test the regular edition.

Tested both Darkstalkers 3 and Vampire Saviour EX and they both behave the same way.

Also tested Kamen Rider V3, game works at full speed, but after beating up the first chapter, then messing up with other modes, and then returning to story mode to try the 2nd chapter, game softlocks with cutscene errors and fucks up.
The game also runs with some sort of screen tearing that divides the picture into 3 rectangles or so, V3 its one of the games that runs at 480i
