What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

In the cutscene where Luigi returns to the villa and Professor E. Gadd sees him off, the hose from Luigi's Poltergust 3000 keeps disappearing (It's flickering). However, this problem cannot be fixed by disabling Dual Core, as it is in the opening cutscene. Even after disabling all other hacks, improvements and cheats, the problem persists.
I also tested this on my wii several times and no such issue appeared at any point.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Play the Game normally, until the cutscene where Luigi returns to the villa from Professor E. Gadd's Ghost Research Laboratory. Wait for the close-up of Luigi's Poltergust 3000.

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, 5.0-14095.

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

Not tested, but most likely, yes.

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

Screenshot is added.
I can record a fifolog if desired.

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

Yes, please provide a fifolog. I think it would be helpful here.

I'm not sure whether the fifo log is of much help, because the issue doesn't seem to occur when I record the fifolog.

This is a CPU timing issue. Changing the emulated CPU clock to 115% fixes it.

It's now here. Huh, I didn't know you could zip a 128 MB file into a 2 MB rar archive.

This is still the case in current builds. Figured it would be useful to confirm since the issue is 2 years old after all.
