No no lol that's why I put UNEMULATED slowdown...I totally know the deal with Metal Slug 2, Double Dragon, etc.
I always use the f11 performance gauge when benchmarking games. It's usually always at 100 but yea it drops down to like 80% sound starts skipping then goes back to 100 like 5 seconds later on these games.
Well tbh I compiled my own version of mame and added in the cave drivers.
The 2 games that do this are Muchi Muchi Pork and Espgaluda II.
They both have a habit of dropping framerates when stages start and the first enemies start showing onscreen and usually when a large boss vehicle appears.
It's just strange that I can run Blitz and Gauntlet Legends flawlessly but these 2d games run into issues.
