Revision | OS | CPU | GPU | Result | Tester |
4.0-330 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core i7-920 @ 2.67GHz | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 | Definitely playable with every speedup disabled (the game has no speed issues at all even so), yet very annoying graphics issues still remain and can cause a lot of confusion in the already meant-to-be-confusing mini-games. Note that the graphical issues are far worse if you don't make sure you have every quality preferred setting set. I don't recommend it even with that though. You can only just barely tell what is going on. | Eagleheart |
4.0-593 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core i5-3470 | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 | Game Boy Advance games messed up if you have any filters on (AF is also affected). Disable them and game becomes almost fully playable. | Moneyvova |
4.0-5886 | Windows 7 x64 | Intel Core i5-2450M @ 2.5 GHz | Intel HD Graphics 3000 (GT2+) | The game appears to run perfectly (without any enhancements such as anti-aliasing or anisotropic filtering.) Setting the texture cache anywhere between safe and fast does not seem to change this. | ChillBro |
