After having an OpenPandora to test PCSX ReARMed on, it occurred to me that something is up with the libretro port in specific -
Start up Soul Edge/Blade. Go to the main menu (where you can select the main mode). You'll notice that if you scroll up/down, the framerate seems really low and you can hear this reflected in the sound. This does not happen on the mainline Pandora version.
This happens with the libretro port even on hardware that is way more powerful than - say - an OpenPandora (like an iPad 2/Mini) - it could be a blitting issue (especially since the menu screen seems to be rendered at 640x224) where the Pandora port is quicker but somehow I doubt it would be that slow just for the main menu when the game ingame is running at fullspeed (and that is running at 640x224 as well).
Are there still issues to do with frameskip that are causing this? Is it some kind of edge case to do with libretro/RetroArch?
