Homebrew RetroArch Switch

[ShadowOne333]

Today was a fun Day , Many users worked to get C++ to work and now it works just fine in alot of cases , we also got Emulators like Fbalpha to work slow but they work , now whats missing is JIT Support and the GPU Drivers but if Daeken can fix the Linux4Tegra source that should come very soon.

Awesome!
Great thing you guys got full on C++ working on RetroArch Switch
Hope this Feb 1st brings up the goodies

we can take a look later but why ? Snes2010 works fine and full speed

Main Snes9x (or properly known as 1.55) has way better accuracy, less hacky than 2010,.
It also has better compatibility, and most importantly, main Snes9x has official MSU-1 support to play CD quality OST for games that support it, as well as FMVs.

Snes9x 2002, 2005, and 2010, etc are lesser versions, unless people are nostalgic. Snes9x 1.55 is almost equal in terms of functionality and accuracy as Higan, without the speed cost of course; MSU-1 support, higher compat, yes, I'm not sure if Snes9x libretro will be ported over to Switch anytime soon. 2xxx series was only for weaker hardware like Atom devices, etc.

I'll also put FBA Alpha as a very early build to the list.

Btw, I've been lurking a lot in RetroArch's repos, and a lot of the cores are getting Switch make targets lately.
mGBA and TyrQuake are two which got recent commits regarding a Switch target to their repos, just to name a few.
I suspect they might be nothing but placeholders right now, but it's worth noting.

Hooray for Snes9x and FBA!

What's after Feb 1st?

What's after Feb 1st?

Plutoo and some of the Reswitched guys said "something" is coming Feb 1st.
Speculations say it might be a proper HBL for the Switch, and even some sort of kernelhax, but that's hopeful from my part lol

Intriguing, and I gotta say, despite the fact that 4.x.x kernel access may not be feasible for some time, the fact the Switch is already this far into homebrew development (especially for <1 year) is pretty bloody impressive

Could you change the red text on the OP? It makes it REALLY hard to read for me w/ the black temp theme

Progress is seriously awesome!
Good work everyone!

Too bad I got my Switch on 3.0.1 and updated to latest

4.1.0 should still be able to run homebrew, the exploit that works on latest is private however

Sounds like a good promise.
Obviously I will no longer update in this case.

I'm pretty excited about Retroarch's future.
