They’re already on some of the basic components - but no retail games are playable yet. Fortunately the architectures between the S1 and S2 are quite similar :)
Tbh a self hosted git or gitlab vs github only really matters for takedowns lol. I wonder how far we could go if the scene just paid a random dude in China or Brazil to just run repositories for warez and reverse engineering efforts that are untouchable by the ninjas.
Yeah the steam deck might be a bridge too far, but I’m sure any modest gaming PC could handle a S2 workload quite easily. If I remembered correctly the deck is CPU bottlenecked for S1 emulation, and that probably will be more pronounced for S2.

Also the real code isnt on github anymore since the whole yu zu a while back. Its unfortunate but much safer this time around.

Wow crazy. My deck works pretty hard emulating switch 1, but keeps up fine. I imagine emulating switch 2 would not perform well.
