Emulation Emulator NetherSX2 - Switch Port

[fst312]

I dont have the Switch 1 on me, Is anybody able to test like Jak and Daxter or Sly Raccoon, Or Kingdom Hearts or the Ratchet and Clank games please

I think all those games work, not 100% sure but I recall most of them being shown in the video, which you can find easily now on gbatemp front page news.

Looks like they showed Sly
But not Jak and Daxter Precursor Legacy, Which would be the one I want to play

tested dark cloud .. runs at about 55-50fps and might dip more in some situations (erista overclocked)

i tried budokai tenkaichi 3 and unfortunately, even fiddling with 50% ee cycle rate and other options it just wont run, goes to about 55%60%speed. i think with fastmem it could be maybe. could it be possible to implement it in the future?

you are amazing. i will try it and ill update here in this thread the performance
EDIT: yea guys budokai tenkaichi is still not playable, but really really close with max oc. i really hopoe with some new performance improvements the following months performance will be equal to the android version, also i think deko3d would be a huge upgrade in terms of raw performance

Is there an option to exit the emulator and return to the game selection screen?

I noticed that the turbo speed can be adjusted in the settings, but where do I assign the key to activate the turbo?

So i tried it and yes alot faster and some games are perfect, but wwe here comes the pain and fight night Round 3 are still slow

 

[j0hnnyj0hns]

all the games I've tested lag super badly, THPS 3, THPS 4, THUG, THUG2 and THAW

 

[Nightwaver]

Tried melty blood actress again erista max cpu ( in game setting : max underclock ) and it ran really well ... (With some shader compile dips)

 

[Neoname]

Tested crash twinsanity, CPU: 1785MHZ, gpu 614mhz,, MEM 1600mhz, with EE Cycle skip moderate it runs at fullspeed most of the time with some hiccups here and there, played through the entire first level. i'm amazed at how good this emulator already is!

Thanks. It's amazing, really. After years finally came on the switch(without android).

I tried a heavy game(Digital Devil Saga) with minimum settings. It's works but very slow. Could run perfectly fine with later updates or it's releated to switch's power limit.

I hope this and it's sequel have improved performance in future updates!

Dumb question: how do I start games from USB? I have a USB hard drive that I use for videos etc. but here I can only see SD card and "manage SMB shares", no option for USB.

Your hdd need to be formated in Exfat or Fat32, i recommend exfat for bigger games like gow and after that it should appear in the file manager

you think performance will be better in the long run? if so , i know its a hard question but how much more could we gain performance wise with improvements? that is if you plan to continue supporting this project with your amazing effort, of which we're not thankful enough
