Description

Game Name?
Rocket Power Beach Bandits

Game ID?
GBQE78

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
About half normal NTSC-U frame rate with D3D as the backend. Similar thing happens under OpenGL. Noticed that if the window goes out of focus (like if you click something on your taskbar), frame rate is restored to normal. Can't play the game out of focus. Restoring focus to the window brings back the halved frame rate.

What did you expect to happen instead?
Full frame rate when the main window is in focus.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Just let the game run normally and allow the window to be out-of-focus to see a full frame rate and bring it back into focus to see a slower frame rate.

Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?
4.0-6027
4.0-6029
4.0-6046

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?
No.

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
Windows 8.1 x64
Intel Core i5 3210M @ 2.5Ghz
NVIDIA GeForce 610M

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)
No.
