Okay, about Front Mission DS, I'm still doing some investigating, but I don't yet know enough for this to merit its own topic. I'm looking at the game through No$'s debugger and noticed a few things:

- The CPU usage spikes a lot when loading battle scenes, and stays at maximum usage for a long time until the scene is rendered.

- In FM2089 - The Border of Madness this happens too, but CPU stays at max usage for much less time (it loads faster).

- In FM1DS, during the UCS's campaign in the first scenario, once the game switches to night vision mode (shades of green), battle load time becomes nearly instantaneous. Could it be that it is the loading of the battle scene's palettes that creates the delay?

- The second UCS map has a much lower baseline CPU usage than the first and second OCU maps, battles load very fast. I'm more and more convinced specific maps cause CPU bottlenecking on the DS.

Edit: If moderators would rather I edit my previous post, I'll delete this one
