Switch going to be conservative, meanwhile the deck clones are going all out. Wonder how those will run switch 2 emulators.

Kind of tangential, but can you do local multiplayer when emulating the switch on a steam deck. Like can you have a 4 player Mario kart game?

[–] KickMeElmo@sopuli.xyz 17 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Sure. Just need to use some external controllers obviously.

[–] ForgotAboutDre@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It probably won't work to do local multiplayer with multiple consoles easily.

Ryujinx has an LDN build for that.

They've had LDN in the main build for a while now, I wouldn't advise using that dedicated LDN build, it's quite old and hasn't been updated. The standard one has LDN in the settings under the network tab.

I don't see why you couldn't. Just connect multiple controllers and configure accordingly.

I regularly emulate Switch games on my RoG Ally Z1E, and it pulls it off so fucking well, I haven't touched my Switch since I got the thing (it easily runs every title I've thrown at it at 60fps+higher res, plus I have the ability to mod games if I need to.)

I can't imagine it'll be too difficult for them to emulate Switch 2 games, assuming Nintendo don't catch on to emulation developers too early.

They will probably use some version of DLSS that’s hard to emulate.

[–] AProfessional@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago

Emulators will just run at higher resolutions instead of blurry upscaling anyway.

[–] meteokr@community.adiquaints.moe 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Then we just disable it, and run the DLSS natively.

[–] DaseinPickle@leminal.space 1 points 7 months ago

If it’s possible, it might be some proprietary version that games can’t run without.

Honestly I'll "take" a low power switch 2 with the expectation of eventually emulating it with enhancements.
