Disc Overlay:
-----------------------
Built into the emulator is a full-disc overlay that maps to the 16-digital positions of a real Intellivision controller. It's not perfect - without the tactile feel of a real controller, it's not usable as a generic replacement for the D-Pad for smooth movement but it works great for games like Bowling or Golf where you need the discrete 16-digital position accuracy. The DS START Button will toggle the disc overlay on/off (switching back to the normal overlay for the game).

Overlays :
-----------------------
Nintellivision contains a default standard overlay that mimics a real Intellivision controller along with some common menu items. Each game can also have a custom overlay which is user-defined. A large number of custom overlays are provided in Extras.zip in the overlay-library folder. You must name the .ovl file the same as the base filename of the ROM (e.g. if you have Astrosmash.int or Astrosmash.rom, you must name the overlay Astrosmash.ovl) - loading such a game would bring up the custom overlay automatically. If the custom overlay doesn't show, double check that the base filenames are exactly the same. By default, overlay files (.ovl) go into the same directory as the game ROMs but you can override this in Global Configuration.

Frameskip and Sound Quality :
-----------------------
The DSi will run all known games at full framerate without any frameskip needed and at the 'High' sound quality setting. There is an 'Ultimate' sound quality that is slightly better than 'High' - it's marginally better but does take a significant amount of CPU time. Use it only for "simple" games (e.g. Astrosmash, Beauty and the Beast, etc.).
