Pokémon Ultra Sun
Nintendo 3DS · Settings and results
The regular Duo test reports a hardware-shader tradeoff at 3×: leaving it off avoids outlined Pokémon but limits fast-forward. An earlier Duo Lite test on a GammaOS beta used 2× for more headroom.
The screenshot didn't load. The test notes and source clips below still work.

Reported settings and results
The reviewer returns from 3× to 2× for more fast-forward headroom. On the Lite it reaches roughly 200% speed, with brief stutters and occasional dips below normal speed.

More detail
- Duo Lite (6 GB / 128 GB) on the GammaOS Nano 1.5 beta, build not shown. Not tested on a regular Duo.
- The fast-forward percentage is separate from the game’s frame rate.
The reviewer reports that enabling hardware shaders makes Pokémon appear as outlines in Pokémon Ultra Sun; disabling the option avoids that visual issue but reduces fast-forward headroom.

The emulator's own list shows whether this game works in general. How well it runs on the Duo can still differ.
