Posted by Paleface on July 17, 2020 at 22:02:09 EST in reply to It’s not just the display though. There are often bottlenecks in these little single chip things that apparently no amount of coding or expertise can ever overcome. The PCE Mini, for example. You have to be able to emulate the original system, pole the controllers, render the video and the sound...all in sync, and send that to your 1ms display. In the 90s we saw what was on the screen sooner and reacted to it similarly. Now you have to self buffer all your moves and play safer. (n/t) from SignOfZeta.

So far, maybe they are. There's a soundless video they're running as a mock-up screen through their official site, and it starts off with VF--but even though the YouTube video is 720p60, the VF part is actually only updating at 30fps--matching the original arcade framerate, as far as the internet tells me.
