ShmupMame was an abomination of things done wrong, even one of the devs I believe eventually agreed that. Seeing videos people have uploaded that are recorded with it is just gross, especially as the games were otherwise well emulated.

Yeah, taking out lag that wasn't in the games in the first place isn't good emulation, sometimes that lag was *intentional* as part of the game difficulty balance (it's a cheap way to make things slightly more difficult, I've worked on a codebase where that choice was made before and even commented as such) As I said, it's built in cheating, and any play on such builds is 100% invalid.
