  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 :)

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

      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.

        Pay for hosting with XMR and stop fucking re-using usernames.

        Releasing software anonymously/pseudonymously isn’t that difficult…

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

      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.

    Oh jeez, I’d heard it would probably take until around EOL

      This is nintendo we are talking about here, they have enough enemies that most of their consoles get blown open within the first year.
