So 1.7.1 is out already.

And i'm out of the city today. Damn :/

Playing the waiting game until i arrive home i guess.

In advance, do i need to know something before using shaders here?

I didnt even know lol.
But if I'm guessing right, 1.7.1 should have initial support for Switch as well.

Btw you can always check the Changelog in the Github page:
https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/blob/master/CHANGES.md

Seeing the Switch support in the list is painful for me to see, I'd best go on a Switch homebrew embargo/fast so to speak, for a while, regarding news for homebrew, etc for reasons.:sad:

Though, seeing this:

  • WIIU: Increased stability during core switching.
Heh :P I like that being mentioned there, more stability ^_^

Tried the latest nightly, dated the 23rd but the mame games are upside down. Anybody else getting this? checked a megadrive game and that was ok.

Hi, new to modding the wii U, I've set my firmware as CBHC, I've installed retroarch channel via WUP installer GX2,downloaded RetroArch_rpx.7z, copied "retroarch" folder to the root of my SD card, deleted the wiiu folder with in that folder, created a "media" file and store the contents of the asset zip file within that folder.
The icon is there in the XMB, when I launch it the retroarch splash screen appears but then a black screen just appears and nothing happens from there, any advice, I'm a bit stuck what to do!

Installed the channel and got the newest build, black screen after launching :(

Edit: Because I've been using individual emulators through HBL I already had a Retroarch folder in sd/ so I deleted that fully and replaced it with the newest build Retroarch folder

@Itchy_sore_piles

(maybe back up the original folder in case it doesn't work for you)

    Today I learned that the creators of the Donkey Kong games also made Sea of Thieves

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Are you being for real, cause that's hard to believe, DK is Nintendo and made in japan, Sea of thieves was from Microsoft, in America. I'm not calling you a liar, just didn't know.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Ok yes they were both made by Rare, but DK was from Rare back then, Rare now is owned by MS. So makes since.
