Gaming Wii U Games on Switch

[Veridis7]

I am thinking about buying a nintendo Switch or arming a PC gamer with the emulator, although I am more opting for the first one online. The fact is that if you can run the games of the Wii U (Retrocompatibles) as I am developing some mods for NSMBU and wanted to know if it would be worth selling the Wii U and buy the Switch.

You will never be able to run Wii U games on the Switch. The OS cannot run Wii U games natively, and the hardware is too weak to emulate them.

Then I think I'm going to have to arm the PC to have CEMU and El YUZU, of course also have the two consoles, but I do not know, I do not like to have many consoles.

lol where did you get the "fact" that switch has retrocompatibility with wiiu? it doesnt lol, the wiiu games on switch are ported same way if you port a game from ps3 to ps4 that doesnt make the ps4 have ps3 retrocompatibility...

You could pay and buy the games again as they're ported over. It seems that every game is being ported over nowadays.

But you'd be better with a PC if you want to mod Wii U games.

Unless you are willing to pay $60 for every Wii U re-release on Switch, the only alternative is emulating it on PC.
