now that it seems we're finally going to get some real alternative choices in
SNES emulation, I felt a bit emboldened to start performing some more radical
changes I put off for a long time. This WIP rewrites huge swaths of the SNES
DSP core to separate internal registers from underlying RAM. This allows me to
emulate the randomized memory registers at power-on, while not breaking games
due to also randomizing the actual DSP registers. This is part of Jonas Quinn's
findings about a year and a half ago, which is aimed at improving the chances
Magical Drop doesn't crash, as on real hardware.
