RE: Patapon 1 input lag (I want errrradicate it)
From memory, Patapon samples input every vblank, or in other words once per frame. An input lag of up to 16.8ms should be unavoidable on a real PSP.

There's lots of things that can cause input lag or perceived input lag though:

* Many gamepads, keyboards, and mice (or their drivers) have lag.
* PPSSPP buffers audio a bit, but tries to output with low latency. Your drivers or device may be buffering as well.
* Your display driver may be vsyncing or otherwise graphics (buffering), which may cause a perceived lag as well.

The PSP had specialized hardware for each of these things. Your PC probably doesn't.

For example, a gamepad I have seems to give me ~100ms of latency between button press and PPSSPP being told about it. Possibly the author of my gamepad's driver figured 10Hz was "good enough." Keyboards typically also have lag and also rollover problems.
