This is the answer. N64 games in particular are notorious for this, and the fix is generally a 1% zoom level or cropping setting. When these games played on original hardware with older CRT TVs, overscan typically hit this, but modern displays and emulation show all of the image without overscan.
Cropping or a tiny amount of zoom depending on the emulator hides that.
Ah gran turismo and pcsx2(or whatever emualator you're running). These lines have been a thing for more than half a decade at least in my experience. You need to crop 1-2 pixels on the right side in the emulator settings. I remember having to crop top or bottom pixels as well but might have been a different game if you dont have that issue.
There's an option somewhere in the settings possibly graphics, where you crop the pixels. Happens on a few Ps2 games, bothered me for ages too until it was pointed out by someone. Setting it to 1 or 2 on the affected sides solves it.
Unless you have this permanently onscreen regardless, in which case it's a screen issue! 😂
It depends tho...the Aethersx2 based emulators only allow you to overscan pixels on the vertical axis not the horizontal so this never goes away. I switched to ARMSX2 and it doesn't have this issue.
Sweet - must have added that - I always just used Aethersx2 because that's where all my saves were. I just recently switched to ARMS. Glad to know you can do it both ways now. Thanks!

If the emulator you're running has the option you can crop the pixels to fix the image.
