Emulation scene is also moving along fast.

The Switch Emulator Ryujinx now runs Sonic Mania at full speed, with no sound issues and even 3D sections work.

Depends, some things work better on Yuzu and vice versa. Yuzu had Mania running first, but the performance is not even close to Ryujinx now. Even Odyssey is getting close to rendering the progress is insane in both camps.

Can Ryujinx run 1-2 Switch?

 

[DeslotlCL]

Well, if this thing manages to run odyssey at a decent frame rate, good bye switch. Gonna emulate and pirate all of your stuff

Legally, they can't do squat to stop emulation, as again, hardware cannot be copyrighted under US law, and emulators are considered original works, so good luck. It seems almost as if people want Nintendo to C&D this emulator.

TBH I don't want it to get a C&D, but I think the Switch is to much of a success right now for Nintendo to just let anyone else bite off the Apple, besides laws can have loop holes, so I'm sure Nintendo will look into possible solutions if they want to with their lawyers, and if something comes up then we'll likely see it, if it doesn't then we won't, but either way this is some amazing progress that's been made today.

If Bleem could win against Sony when it was based on a reverse engineered bios, I am pretty sure Nintendo has no chance against Yuzu or RyuJinx today

Ahhh my Boi ryujii comming in clutch i never saw this coming

There is nothing they can do other than hunt down Warez sites, the emulators themselves can't be shut down, Sony's many legal battles over the PS1 emus proved that it is impossible to win, Nintendo will not be able to do anything.

I doubt they'll do anything.

 

[chirogan]

That's... Stunning. Is RyujiNX actually progressing faster than Yuzu?

I cant really see swift progress with the yuzu emulator since the loading of their first commercial game. A little tweaks here and there every once in a while.

 

[Darth Meteos]

Good luck with that, since emulators fall under fair use as per copyright law, soooooo......

So? It's almost as if 2D games were easier for GPUs to render than 3D games or something.

You think you know me, but you clearly don't. You're more than welcome to block me if it helps. I'm just saying that people seem like they're hoping that Nintendo does something to stop this emulator, and you're not helping.

Just logged in after 12 years to say : Using negative against something negative is being positive. So I think the_randomizer is being very positive!

Sonic 06 is my all-time favourite 2D game

 

[sarkwalvein]

tis true

I know you gotta go fast, but this may need an FPS limiter.

I like the part when it says “This emulator is also available on GitHub, and is licensed under the "Unlicensed" license.”.

How well does this run on switch Linux?

An interesting take on Switch piracy.

That's a homebrew game (and yuzu, of course).

I'm just saying we have to know how it compares.

 

[Maximilious]

Seems like these guys and Yuzu should join forces, similar to team Dolphin. Or better yet, join team Dolphin to add Switch emulation to their product. That would be amazing!
