The Emulator is slow

[TheeJuls]

So when I first downloaded the emulator, it was working well, but suddenly it'S gone super slow! I'm not sure what to do! I feel like I maybe have touched or moved something I wasn't supposed to. Anyways somebody help me please!

Maybe you just tried other games.
The speed is also game depending, there are games that run fast and slow.
You will get faster speed if you play less demanding and more optimized games like Final Fantasy X or Kingdom hearts.

If this doesn't work, then you are out of luck. Most laptops aren't cut out for this kind of cpu demand.

Make sure your power management is set to high performance but watch out for heat!
