settings for frame rate?

[seanv]

Is there any way to lower the frame rate of games? PJ64 wants to run Super Mario 64 and OoT, and everything else I've checked, at 60FPS. I want to run it at 30FPS. now, I searched the support pages and it says that the FPS cannot be changed as it is an in-game setting. however, that same article says that Zelda runs at 20FPS, which is not what PJ64 says when I run it. so.....any clarification?

PJ64 runs the games at the correct framerate. The 'fps' counter really means fields per second (or V/Is per second) and not frames per second.

The amount of frames per second is fixed and cannot be changed - doing so speeds up or slows down the game.

Excuse me for asking a seemingly stupid question, but why would you want to run games at half the speed they were designed to run?
