Problems
Sprite Alignment Issues
Minor sprite alignment issues occur if either Force Texture Filtering or Anisotropic Filtering are enabled. OpenGL at 1x Native Internal Resolution can also exhibit similar problems, but even more minor. Avoid these and it will be fine.
Pushy Penguins Flicker
With XFB set to anything but Real the Pushy Penguins mini-game will have flickering issues.
