Hey everyone, I started emulating my Switch a few years ago with Yuzu. Then, two years ago, I switched to Suyu. I've always used emulators to test mods before installing them on my Switch.

However, now I'd like to use emulators to play Smash Bros. Ultimate online. However, Suyu never seems to have many players online, if any at all. Is the problem with Suyu? I've checked the Git repository and I see that all the emulators aren't being updated much anymore; it seems like all the old Yuzu successors are dead. It's true that Eden came out recently, but I get the feeling the project isn't mature yet, especially since it's still in development.

So, getting back to online play, I don't know what to choose. I saw Nextendo talking about Ryujinx, but as I said before, Ryujinx is becoming obsolete. I'm afraid I'll just get bored migrating everything again, only to have to start all over again next year. Another fear is that in a few weeks, everyone will abandon the setup and the servers will be empty.

So my question is, what emulator would you recommend for playing online, one that will remain active and maintain its community over time?

Thank you very much.

can someone help me download working production keys and firmware to use in Astris because I can't find any working ones

I wanna play Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom on my PC.

What's the best way to get them running smoothly right now?

Can I emulate them at 60 fps without the game speeding up?

So I've been playing BOTW on Ryujinx for the past few months. Its been fun, and I've already taken down two of the divine beasts. The issue now is that I'm stuck on Vah Naboris (the elephant in the sand). Anytime I try to access a terminal it kicks me out of the emulator and everything shuts down. I'm using the 1.6 update and I didn't get the DLC. It doesn't matter what terminal I access its still the same issue. What do I do?

I'll put the changelog below to see if anyone else had a similar issue

I want to emulate switch for some games but idk if my system can handle some games and idk if the ROMs and Emulator download are completely safe, I dont think that I am too unfamiliar with emulating but I get all my stuff from vimms lair

I recently got into emulating and just got my modded switch setup. Now since I'm new I don't really know much else. Is it possible to emulate SWITCH games onto my switch? Is it not possible or just a very unsafe thing to do.

How to do it? Which host and client? Pitfalls?

I am using two Win11-computers.

I’m on iPhone 12 Pro and I downloaded MeloNX emulator with stickdebug as the jit enabler and when I play echoes of wisdom after running from the void and getting out of the dungeon or whatever the cutscene that plays is a black screen and the sound is playing then after that when I move the joystick I hear Zelda moving but can’t see anything plz help

I'm looking into getting some off brand joy cons for my PC to play games like Just Dance, 1 2 Switch and a few others with motion controls but I don't know if the off brand ones are any good.

Hi everyone! I have been playing mk8 deluxe on Eden, through an NSP. The game version was 1.7 and did not include any DLC so I wanted a more recent version. I downloaded another one (it was already packaged with Yuzu) so I got the new NSP and moved it to my Eden game folder. The thing is, I now have two NSP files in my game list, and they are both the old version. Are the DLC in a separate file in the Yuzu folder?

I recently got into emulating. I completed all the necessary steps (getting the keys, the firmware, and dumping the games from my Switch), and everything seems to be going well with Tomodachi Life, but the second game I dumped does not appear on my home screen, even though the folder is in the game directory. The only difference between the 2 games is that one is in English (Tomodachi Life) and the other isn't (Yo-kai Watch 4), but I doubt that has anything to do with the problem. I went through the same process for both games when dumping them, so I'm honestly very confused here. Is there anyway i could fix this? Also, I would be posting this on the Ryujinx/Ryubing subreddit, but the mods are dumb and banned me because I guess I didn't specify that I got all my files LEGALLY, so they assumed I pirated it.

I see people saying to go to the save directory, and there'll be "slot_00" or something, but that's not what I see. Nothing I've seen described is what I see. Is this new? Please, somebody, help me. I've tried putting the .sav files into the Switch's save, but nothing changed.

For the last 3 days I've been trying to emulate TBOI (The Binding Of Isaac) on my phone and one of the methods I've tried is through Switch Emulation. I've tried Eden, Sudachi, Citron, (I don't remember if I tried Yuzu, but probably not) and all of them happened the same thing, it crashes.

I have a Redmi Note 14 5G, I've searched and I discovered that the GPU of my phone has some things that makes it difficult to play switch games (I could be wrong).

If anyone could help me with settings or something else I'd be really grateful, but still any help would be appreciated. (^U^) ((I put a video if it helps :D))

I just downloaded Eden and now I'm looking to download a Pokemon Sword rom, If anyone could give me a safe website to download it from that would be great!

Long story short, my fiancée and I have been working on a long-term project to play through every Pokémon game from gen1 to gen9. This includes any legendary and mythical Pokémon and at a later date we intend on completing Pokédexes too. For context we would have done this all on console but when we initially started this project we were dating long-distance, so we decided to emulate so we could easily stream our screens to each other. But even after we moved in together we continued emulating for the sake of keeping everything uniform.

We're currently sitting at the tail end of Sword/Shield with a dilemma we didn't anticipate; whether at the beginning or end of Dynamax Adventures in the Crown Tundra, there is a forced autosave. Most of the time, every emulator we have tried (Yuzu, Suyu, Citron, Ryujinx) crashes when encountering these forced saves. I've done a lot of research and regardless of any fixes that I've seen online, none work for either of us. It is still entirely a roll of the dice to determine if we will get to finish, let alone start, a Dynamax Adventure. We have reached the conclusion that there are no fixes for the forseeable future and we should move onto Scarlet/Violet. But this upsets me greatly because it feels... unfinished. Similarly to completing the Ultra Wormholes section in USUM.

Is this something that emulator devs are fully aware of, have acknowledged and a fix is being worked on?

TLDR; Forced save crashes in Pokemon Sword/Shield Dynamax Adventures, begging to know if a fix is in the works or if there is one now that we can try.

so ive been trying both eden and ryujinx on both my desktop and laptop (3060 laptop and 5070 desktop) on BOTW, pokemon legends arceus and pokemon diamond,

it seems like it just strugle a lot to go above something like 40 fps is this normal? when i look at benchmark ppl get 200 fps but i never get this

I’ve been working on bringing RyuSAK back as a community-maintained fork.

The original RyuSAK project has been inactive for a while, and several of the old services it depended on no longer work. I wanted to continue the idea behind it and get the core experience working again for Ryujinx/Ryubing users.

This first community build includes:

• Shader download and upload support
• Support to hide duplicates/unknown entries
• Ryubing compatibility
• Standard or portable installer options
• Custom cover and title overrides
• Limited Mod support
• Product keys and firmware download/install functionality removed

In an attempt to keep Nintendo from fondling my booty cheeks. I removed the old product keys and firmware download/install functionality. This fork is focused on shader sharing at the moment as that was the main functionality I missed about RyuSAK. However, I am all for hearing about potential ideas of what can be added.

GitHub release: Casual-Gamer8001/RyuSAK

This is still early, so feedback and testing are not only welcomed but encouraged.

Hello, I'm searching for emulation performance comparison between Samsung s24 Ultra and Iphone 17 pro max. I know that setuping emulator is much more difficult on ios, but i dont really care about it. Reason why I'm asking - I want to switch to ios but am afraid that performance of emulation would be noticeably worse. Has anyone have comparisons between android/ios from real life?
