Well you get some input lag from the emulation regardless,

If I instead hook my Macbook Pro up to the television and run an emulator there, the input lag is completely gone, or at least low enough that action games are playable with out me noticing. Whatever software and settings retropie uses are just substandard. I remember playing a SNES emulator on a 60Mhz PPC 601 back in the 90s, and recall no input lag at all and full speed games. And the Pi is a bazillion times faster!

There's also the annoying issue of the thing being too light, and so it's very easy to move around when you pull on your controller or something.

I just have no good things to say about this experiment.
