NetherSX2 - Switch Port

Nagaa · 2026-07-11T23:27:01+00:00

NetherSX2 - Nintendo Switch port This is a wrapper/port of the Android version of NetherSX2. It loads the original Android emulator core, patches it and runs it. It's basically as if we emulate a minimalist Android environment in which we natively run the original Android binary as is. Features Cover art — auto-download from SteamGridDB (one game or the whole library) Region flags (US / EU / JP) and a sortable library Per-game settings — override any option per title; rename and delete games Full controller remapping, stick config, deadzone, and vibration Resolution scaling up to 6× (4K), aspect ratio, widescreen / no-interlace patches, shade boost, CRT/TV shaders, and the full graphics / enhancement / audio option set Experimental network adapter (DEV9 / Sockets) — off by default, opt-in in Settings → Network Renderers Choose in Settings → Graphics → Renderer: Vulkan (NVK) — recommended; best compatibility and performance in most games OpenGL — alternative if a game misbehaves under Vulkan Cores Choose in Settings → Emulation / System → Core version: Patched (4248) — The most recent one Classic (3668) — an older build; Can get better performance on less powerful devices Credits : The AetherSX2 / PCSX2 developers for the emulator. The NetherSX2 maintainers for the patched Android builds. fgsfds for the Switch so-loader groundwork reused here. TheOfficialFloW for the original Android so-loader lineage. Dantiicu - Switch Vulkan driver. Slluxx - IconGrabber. Available here : https://github.com/NaGaa95/NetherSX2_nx

Both of those will be in the next update and should be super easy to implement. Alongside maybe a 3D UI for those that use that feature.

It may be because a lot more of the shaders are cached on the device, so they need to be replayed before starting a game rather than computed during game time. I could make an option to turn of disk cache, but that'll make games a lot more stutter-y. Also I never had 5 second loads. Mine have always been slow. Maybe SD Card speed?

3Beans port incoming when?

I'm looking into this issue now for anyone running into it. Apologies for the worse performance. If anyone could say which update it was that decreased performance in these games it would be very helpful for my debugging.

I found the version that broke it is the v2.0.0, not the release candidate which I just tried, the Async GPU made first crash pokemon oras and then the second time the game I loaded the game it worked.

One thing I want to underline is that there wasn’t any performance boost with the Async GPU on version 2.0.0-RC1

Yesterday I used version 1.3.0 which was working as well

So I’m pretty sure is the latest version you uploaded which had the bug.

Thanks!
