Are we testing in NTSC or PAL? Also (sorry to be a noob) How can I tell which version I'm running?
America, canadian, or japanese: NTSC

Anywhere else: PAL
Okay. I'm assuming that because the memory card is a NTSC version that I have a NTSC game as that's working.
Yeah.
This is using a clean install of Dolphin 3.0 with no settings changed.

Yeah I am. I'll try shrinking the window.

Tried making the window smaller. Not sure of exact window size but,

Have you set Dolphin as a high priority on task manager? That might help. I found it interesting how the gamespeed was higher but the FPS was the same. Did you find it playable as it was?
