Controller presses and releases are now combined in a DS button bitfield using a shorter 32-bit algorithm. See entry.cpp:NDSSFCAccumulateJoypad and #define ACCUMULATE_JOYPAD in the source.
This is still not suitable for playing platformers frame-perfectly, but it's much better than half a second of latency to press or release a button, and one still needs to press buttons a bit more than just light taps. I'd say 50 milliseconds is the latency now. Platformers requiring more precision can be played with frameskip 0.
DMA does not require double-buffered displaying, so synchronise the controller more often by disabling double-buffered displaying again.
