which is better to use for NES, SNES, GENESIS ... tico vs retroarch?

I use tico for these because it's smooth and simple. Retro arc has more filters but it's OK.

DS or 3DS?

Coming to a Tico near you soon.

Translates to

Testing "Azahar (3DS)" on a native Nintendo Switch without Android or Linux. The games tested in this video are fully playable, with some minor graphical glitches but no unplayable frame rate drops since it runs on Vulkan. – It will be integrated into Tico as well as "armsx2" in future clocks. Mandatory (Horizon OC). – This test was shared with me by @danticoverse ; follow him to stay up-to-date on his Tico news

kind of buried in that story, but armsx2 is a ps2 emulator, which Dan showed a core for is being worked on for Tico. I saw a thing where he had a couple 2D ish games running already, like mega man x8. once that's working that'll leave what, original xbox and dreamcast for major systems within the power of the switch hardware left to be playable inside atmosphere?

We've had Dreamcast for years already

Yeah, we had many emulators for years and I got annoyed a bit when I read someone’s comment before that had a switch who knows how long and wanted to play marvel vs capcom for like 4 years, I was like in my mind that games been working forever, someone says they bought a switch like a year ago and tico made them play it for retro games. I’m sorry but as much as I like what tico did, retro comments like that just felt like kissing up to the dev no disrespect intended there.

i mean I did specify inside atmosphere. I think the lion's share of people that use atmosphere do so because they don't want to setup android or linux and/or have to swap between boots. I know I'm lazy and low tech-knowledge enough that I appreciate a good user friendly all-in-one solution. *shrug*

Flycast works pretty well in HOS and has done for years.
