Now that time has passed to allow homebrew development, what are some of everyone’s favorite Retro Nintendo Emulators on the Nintendo Switch?

Specifically these systems:

NES
SNES
GB
GBC
GBA

If there is more than one emulator that you like for a particular system, it would be worth noting why you prefer one over the other for further discussion.

Are we talking about Lakka or Horizon ( Switch OS ) with Libnx?

If talking about Horizon. I am going with VBA - because Pokemon, and SNES because Ninja Turtles in Time. Plus the ported Switch Emulators on Horizon with Libnx have sound ( most of them do )

Now for Lakka ( Retroarch ) for Switch.
N64. Why? If you have to ask why, you deserve a spanking.

Lakka is going great but for myself ( I'm waiting for sound support ).

Retro nx is the best. Tons of options and I love retroarch's rewind feature for the classic 2d stuff. All we need now is 3d acceleration for n64 and ps1.

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:

  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:

  • realtimesave @ realtimesave:
    @SylverReZ where do u lurk
  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
