Description

The 1st one i compiled that did not work on on Nov. 28

Research direction

Reproduce the Pokémon Stadium 2 minigame menu lag using the current build and compare it with the version reportedly compiled on October 22, 2014; the first failing build was reportedly compiled on November 28. Identify the change associated with the regression and verify that the menu performance is restored.
