EDIT:
Tested for just a few minutes:
Can't figure out how to get simplemenu theme setup which is my favorite interface. (It could be made to work with the old cfw so I 'm sure it can be made to work with this one!)
Adding data over usb-c is a HUGE upgrade for this thing since I could never add them to the SD card itself because my PC couldn't see the "main" drive folder without a bunch of fussing.
I tested shutdown with poweroff switch multiple times and it just works perfectly. NO MORE SHITTY DISK CHECKS!
I tested overclocking gpsp for GBA and it's pretty stable at 764mhz, quick crash over 800. I overclocked snes9x2002 to 764 and it is pretty stable as well. Still getting some audio crackles when playing roms on both of them unfortunately. I'm thinking of setting the CPU to default to 764mhz.
WarioWare Inc. used to have messed up graphics in the intro which is now fixed.
The emulators I'm trying aren't standalone anymore (or if they are there i don't know how to launch them) they are now cores in retroarch. This may actually be a slight negative because I believe they run a bit slower because of the overhead of running retroarch.
.sav files show up in the roms list which is not preferred
2nd edit: Under the MUSL Version -- Sad to report default performance has been hindered by forcing everything to run under retroarch. Overclocking cannot resolve this for my v90. I'm guessing performance improvements are coming but I know under 1.3.3 sonic 3 (for example) ran smoothly on picodrive and now it does not. Will begin testing uclibc version.
