GroovyArcade live-CD 2022 (collaborative effort)
Recapnation:
I never said anything regarding MAME for LX vs. MAME for WIN (I even thought that it was already proven that they're equal when measuring input lag, at this point). I'm in no position to discuss about that, and honestly, my hope is to never be. But if you ask me why WIN is better than LX (in the context of "15/31-kHz gaming", what else), I have reasons for the whole day.
As for key emulators without LX version, you need the Retro Arch cores for decent FC/NES, SFC/SNES, MCD and PCE emulation. Some would say that even PS and GBA. Not sure how the LX version of RA performs on 15-kHz systems. PC-88 Mark II SR, PC-9800 series and FM Towns do require standalone emulators as of now. Sega's Model 2 and Model 3 (and Sony's ZN?) seem to also benefit from standalone emulators against MAME.

RA works fine in Linux for 15kHz. Ben Templeman (aka alphanu) developped the 15kHz for both win and linux. It's based on super resolutions, not the xrandr lib but shell calls to the xrandr binary (last time I checked), but it does work. More on his YT channel.
Regarding Nintendo consoles, higan runs on Linux. Sega consoles emulation is WIP, haven't tested it tbh.
Sega Model 3: supermodel runs on linux
Sega Model 2: windows only unless you go the mame way
I was expecting some "user experience is dreadful on linux" ;) Which is true, but I'm doing my best to make things as easy as windows to be used.
Recapnation:
Yeah, sorry for not being of help there; I wish you luck.
Higan is not the one to pick for action games (or for a low-res display, last I checked). RA's BSNES cores with Brunnis' fixes for better lag figures.

Anyway, thank you for your opinion :)
