Hello everyone,
This should help someone.
Hope all is well and everyone enjoyed their weekend.
In this video I do go through the NES and GBA RetroArch Emulators or virtual consoles as some would refer to them as.
I do go over some control settings that I do have enabled for both emulators. Makes playing some of these retro emulators a little more fun.
YouTube Video:
5.X.X/5.0.2
YOU MUST PLACE THE NES AND VBA CONFIGURATIONS FOLDERSON THE ROOT OF YOU MICRO SD CARD.
YOU Must PLACE THE 1 retroarch_NES AND 1 retroarch_VBA folders in the switch folder on your micro sd card/should still have .nro file in it.
YOU MUST LOAD THE NES CONFIGURATIONS FOLDER/CONFIG.CFG FILE AND/OR LOAD THE VBA CONFIGURATIONS FOLDER/CONFIG.CFG FILE EVERY TIME YOU LAUNCH RETROARCH FOR EITHER EMULATOR/VIRTUAL CONSOLE

Appreciate all the hard work done by developers and the teams at work making these GREAT emulators/virtual consoles and apps possible.
Have fun and all the best.

Neat stuff
May I ask which versions of FCEUMM and VBA are you using fir the video?
Are they the ones linked in the Google Drive link in the OP?

this is what i have understood:
SD/NES CONFIGURATIONS/config.cfg
SD/VBA Configurations/config.cfg
sd/switch/1 retroarch_NES/1 retroarch_NES.nro
sd/switch/1 retroarch_VBA/1 retroarch_VBA.nro
sd/switch/roms/nes/ (roms)
sd/switch/roms/gba/ (roms)
correct ?
i guess this works for snes too ?
thanks
Wait, that just inspired me. Why can't someone make a bounty for porting RetroArch to 4.x?Apparently a new bounty has been opened to update the Dolphin core (or to at least update the core to be on par with standalone Dolphin) and create a make target for ARM64 (which could mean implementation for Switch right off the back once JIT/GPU is done).
Here's the bounty:
https://www.bountysource.com/issues/58967981-bounty-update-dolphin-core-and-port-it-to-arm64
You could open a bounty for that for sure, but you would need to specify:Wait, that just inspired me. Why can't someone make a bounty for porting RetroArch to 4.x?
Or that's already being done with LibNX...
My responses:You could open a bounty for that for sure, but you would need to specify:
The most trivial thing would be the third point, but you could for sure being a bounty.
- FW versions you are aiming for and or what FWs you want RetroArch to be compatible with.
- Library that RetroArch Switch port will use (LibTransistor or LibNX)
- To what extend you want RetroArch to work to be able to claim the bounty.
The problem here is that the main goal of the Bounty (support for 4.X FW) is not from the RetroArch side, but rather LibNX.My responses:
Thing is, I'm most likely counting on someone to open up the bounty, though.
- 4.x firmwares (4.0.0 up to 4.1.0)
- Definitely the LibNX library, since the latest version of the LibTransistor library doesn't work on 4.x
- RetroArch should load the menu and the ROMs without errors or failure. SD support and JIT support should work, and RetroArch should load from its SD card directory as well as load and save the configuration file.
Can anyone compile Beetle PSX with the new LibTransistor?
Well, an N64 core hasn't been compiled for the Switch yet. It would be more difficult to port an N64 LibRetro core than to simply recompile an existing core with another library. On top of that, there are several N64 cores in the wild, like GLupen64, GLideN64 and mupen64plus.This would be awesome. And an N64 port as well?
