Since the GBA can interface with the Gamecube, there are a few interesting potential things that can be done. One that interests me is the linking of Sonic Advance 1/2 with Sonic Adventure DX/2. Why? So the Chao can be raised on the handheld. What for? The 100% run.
Here's what I know about the Tiny Chao Garden:
Each fruit changes the Chao's stats.
The Apple should be (ab)used to lower the belly stat, while increasing almost all other stats (except for stamina).
When a Chao's happiness is low, it will threaten to leave. Unless it's happiness gets increased, it will leave.
Once a stat levels up, it can not be lowered. All fruits can be purchased with Rings which can obtained by playing the main game, or the mini games.

BSNES emulates all co-processors (SuperFX, Cx4, etc...) at the low level, so games that utilize them are considerably slower than games that don't. That's why.
Well, Stunt Race FX doesn't lag that hard and it also uses the SuperFX chip. Yoshi's Island also uses the Super FX chip (though, it's a newer one).

It's not a bad run, but it's no Capcom Arcade fighter that we have here. There's no infinite juggles or other BS behavior going on here. It's like watching a Megaman boss rush.
Meh from me.

starfox is considering itself lucky if it can run at 30fps. usually (always?) its running worse. you shouldnt be surprised if its got as many lag frames as missed frames.
That's true. I know StarFox is a slow @$$ compared to Virtua Racing. Genesis does what Nintendon't.

Star Fox seems to have a lag frame, every other frame. I know Star Fox has lag, but not this bad. Stunt Race FX seems to run at 50 FPS. Both are confirmed good dumps and U versions.

Ok, now do Superman 64. I refuse to vote, let alone acknowledge this run was done, or the game exists.
In honor of this non-existence, I present this:

Over 6 years. I am necroing this hard.
After watching the testrun I have to say that it is kinda dull to a degree. At first it's, Ho hum. Ima lose. Then Ball 3 comes up then skill takes over. But is that the fastest way? Solar to Vortex until score reached? Technical side, it's a good plan. On the entertainment side, it's majorly lacking.

Here's what can happen (and did to me). You signup for some site. You used the same password there as you do on other sites. The site's owner sells your password, along with everyone else's and hackers go crazy. The worst possible case is clear text passwords. Absolute failure of security.

To run the Japanese version, you need the ROM files for that version. I think it's treated a "Child" which means you only need a few more files to have the Japanese Version. MAME sets the European Version to the "Parent" which means it's the "base" of the game.

There's something I've been wondering for a while (maybe it's intentional): when opening a ROM, SNES ROMs aren't included in the "ROM files" category, rather you have to select the Super NES category to open an SNES ROM. Is there a reason for this?
It's a problem with the list selection that was used on the Load File Dialog. There's no SMC or SFC for the "ROM Files" list. It's easy to fix in the code.
Edit:
The DSP4.rom file doesn't work right with Mega Man X3. Complains about a missing file, which shouldn't be true. I have that file. Unless there is another file I need to have as well?
Top Gear 3000 doesn't load into a Race. Unsure if it's the ROM dump or the Firmware Dump. Every other game, except for Mega Man X2/X3 and Top Gear 3000 seem to work for me.
