Was watching Sean Seanson's "Bad PS1 Games" video, and when he gets to The Simpsons Wrestling, he mentions how some of the game's visuals were forced on the developers by Fox executives and how it killed performance. A lightbulb went on over my head: Duckstation, a very nice Playstation emulator, can fix (or at least help) both of these things. You can overclock the PS1 for potentially higher framerates and use downsampling to smooth out rough edges without boosting the resolution and ruining the aesthetic.

So... here's The Simpsons Wrestling with both of those turned on. It surprisingly has no problem hitting 60fps, and, well, reveals a game that was kind of programmed with a poor framerate in mind, because now at 250% CPU overclock it kinda becomes unplayably fast.
