Topic	why did the ps1 version of snes games have such horrid loading times?

Seems like the easiest thing in the world to have the menu pre-loaded at all times since you know for sure that is the single most-used screen at any point in the game. I'll not pretend to be tech savvy but wikipedia seems to say the PS1 GPU had 1 Megabyte of VRAM? That's like, 25% of the entire game lol. I don't see why something like Chrono Trigger or Megaman would ever have load times for anything except the added FMVs and CD audio tracks/sounds. Maybe someone else can enlighten us. <_< --- Lusa Cfaad Taydr <cite>Kim_Seong-a posted [p:977235680] in why did th... [t:80621103]...</cite> <quote>I can only assume lazy porting.
