Emulation Homebrew PS1/2 Emulator ARMSX2-NX Initial Release

Thank you so much for this incredible work!
At what speed would Soul Calibur II and Sega Rally Championship run?"

Cool project!
I tried it but for some reason I can't make it read any BIOS, it doesn't detect them in the bios folder (I tried many). I'd love to try Pro Evolution Soccer 6

Will Vulkan be integrated? Is it possible?

I don't believe Vulkan is available through Switch Mesa, but even if it was it would perform worse than the current backend does since it (Deko3D) is custom built exactly for the Switch and it's GPU. OpenGL also isn't supported for the same reason as it's not worth my time to get worse performance out of the renderer.

Based on how other games run, not well, but give me a bit and I can run them and see what happens.

Interesting. I've never had it not detect either of my BIOS' before. As long as it's in /switch/armsx2/bios it should work. Or I believe you can point it to a custom location too if you want to try that. (I also think I left a debug flag in the ini that allows for setting a BIOS file in there that is force used, but I may have taken that out?) It'd be a BIOS= line somewhere in there.

Beatmania IIDX 7th test

Hey another game that can run at basically full speed!

Also, I've made a spreadsheet outlining the status of each game that's been tested in this thread now. https://cryptpad.fr/sheet/#/2/sheet/view/SwHTSHURcbhL7mLo8aAz3xB+cTKAA3LuIDDhVwkZUd4/

A simple game doesn’t wok

What's wrong with it exactly? Those messages are normal since fastmem doesn't work on Switch and never will and the renderer should always be hardware. The game appears to still be loading though?

Thanks again for your work on this. I gave "Let’s Make a Soccer Team!" a try (no overclock). I expected it to run more or less fine since it’s listed as perfectly emulated on PCSX2, and I thought the 2D parts might be light enough for the Nintendo Switch. The menus run great as long as there’s no 3D being rendered (like the secretary), but once I get into the simulated matches (even with the 2D field, which I assumed would be lightweight) it drops to around 4 FPS and becomes pretty much unplayable, I guess single core performance of the CPU is not good enough (at least without overclock) for simulating the matches.

Really fun to play with this, thank you so much again
