Yuzu Nintendo Switch emulator has been ported to Android

dfs.png

The Yuzu development team has just released their Nintendo Switch emulator for a new platform. Today, Yuzu has been ported to Android, bringing yet another Nintendo Switch emulator to mobile devices. This release follows nearly a month after Skyline ended its development. Yuzu for Android's initial release lacks parity with the desktop version, and it currently does not have LDN multiplayer and other features, as the team wants to focus on optimization first and foremost.

You need Android 11 and some Vulkan extensions in order to run Yuzu. You can grab the emulator from the Google Play Store if you want to try it out. A full blog post on the official Yuzu site also details the development process of the port.

Switchroot is android 10, not 11. You couldn't even run it for the lulz, unless you compile android 11 yourself from their source code.

I’ll get an affordable android if this ends up running well, it’s always good to have an another switch. Just need to consider screen size.

I tried it in my xiaomi 11 (snapdragon 888) and the performance is worst than skyline but waaay more compatible.

I tested the turnip mesa drivers but yuzu crash when I use it (it have an option to install drivers like skyline), updated adreno drivers works though.

Yeah, I hope this will work on my Nvidia Shield TV.
W/ the Shield's weak processor, the app probably wont even start. Tell me how I know? Lmao...
I own a Shield and it can barely run Dolphin 😅😆😂 so I bought a SBC w/ a RK3588 in it and it can run Dolphin from Android on my TV now...

This is what happens when you emulate a outdated console which made out of old tech ,now you get potato phones running it. Not to mention losing to a paperclip before:rolleyes:
