There was an existing thread on this, but it was from 2017 and got closed because it was being necro'd to death.
I know the old 3DS is severely underpowered, it's honestly a miracle anything works on it, but with all that aside... The 3DS runs on the ARM9 architecture, and so do the PSP and Vita... Would it be possible to use HLE on the CPU to eliminate a lot of the bottlenecks, and save LLE for things like memory management? That should theoretically make PSP emulation possible right?
I'm just throwing ideas around, but I'm pretty bummed out that all of the Wipeout games are Playstation exclusives. I have never owned a Playstation console in my entire life, I'd buy a used PS3 + PSVita for real cheap but I'm trying to save money right now for more important things. Until my Steam Deck arrives I'd like to have some way to play Wipeout Pure without needing to use my cell phone and PPSSPP. I can't be the only one who wants to see this happen.
Everybody carries their phones around these days and can emulate their entire retro library from them. But having to either use a touch controller or carry around an external controller with you is painful. I had to create some extremely goofy custom setup just to play Pure properly on a touch screen (see attached image). I could solve this problem by buying a Vita but... Again, budget constraints.
