Compatibility guide

PAL vs NTSC J

PAL editions often run at 50Hz, while Japanese releases are built for 60Hz. That affects gameplay speed, motion, and overall feel.

PAL 50Hz

  • Often slower gameplay compared with original release timing.
  • Can show borders depending on system and display setup.
  • Useful for region native collections in Europe.

NTSC J 60Hz

  • Gameplay speed matches original developer intent.
  • Typically full screen presentation on compatible setups.
  • Large library with strong value for collectors.
