    This is the first time I've seen someone talk more about the mini consoles besides only adding more games. Thanks for showing us there's so much more we can do.
    Regarding Punch Out: was there that much lag on the original hardware, or is that strictly an emulation issue?

      The CRT + original system is considered the 0 lag setup. There must have been some lag, but it is almost always less than compared to modern hardware. (It seems that CRTs can have around 8ms of lag.)
      A flat screen TV can add 20ms of lag over a CRT, especially if it is a cheaper/older one.
      Emulation can add lag because it is trying to accurately emulate the synchronization of the different chips. The synchronization becomes important in games that rely on timing, such as the wind effect in the beginning of FF6 which turns to a TV static sound without accurate timing. On a real system, all of these parts would be working more async. This is also why FPGAs tend to offer better results. It looks like ~20ms minimium lag from emulation.
      If you use a wireless controller, you might lose another 11ms. USB may have a 2ms. Because the OS is there, that might add some ms of latency because the emulator does not have direct access to the controllers.
      The beauty of runahead is that 2-3 frames will usually bring the lag to about the right spot so you don't have to put together a perfect setup or get an expensive FPGA system.

      ​@bitterepic what's fascinating about this is that so many times I will indulge in a rerelease on say, the Nintendo Switch Online service, and I seem to be remarkably worse in games than I used to excel at. I used to think that aging was a factor in slower reaction speed, but perhaps maybe lag is having a larger impact that I expected.
      Of course, this does not apply to all games. But something like Fzero X comes to mind.

    Can you make another video review about Postmarket OS Phosh because i saw it on other review it is now too smooth the Phosh and Gnome on mobile. test 4G calls, files if you can save any files because when i check the PPP on PM os device it doesnt show any support for internal storage and sdcard like other device, Full disk encryption, install linuxmobileapps i saw it on the website it has 500+ mobile fits desktop apps for mobile. Another is ubuntu touch test the firefox on libertine modifited it i saw on telegram some users make it work on libertine it really fast like firefox on android, on Pinephone pro also try 4g calls let see if it works because ubuntu touch doesnt support it for android device the PPP hardware is different from android hardware though. Thats all
