Have you tried emulation on your Switch? Love to hear from anyone on the Android side too.
Resident Evil 4
Is this native emulators(homebrew) or retroarch?
@fabioscp1906 Depends. Under PS1 is RetroArch, the rest are standalone.
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds How did you get 3ds,sega, snes Standalone?
Also did you know there is Duckstation standalone?
Sega and SNES are under PS1 - so using RetroArch. 3DS is just the mx4w core, and PS1 is using Duckstation standalone.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Still hilarious how I said I wanted to watch a video like this and you were already making it 😂. You got a new subscriber!
Great minds! Thank you!
The 3DS games you demonstrated were shown running at 60fps but those games are supposed to run at 30. I dunno if adjusting that would boost performance but it may be worth a try.
3DS games running on Switch? Did not know this was a thing. Super impressed!
I'm a big fan of running Android on Switch. Can't wait for the Android 11 build to become more accessible and easier to install and run.
thank you for this video ! very useful
great and clean showcase! deserves more subs and views
Ive had my switch sense it came out and im feeling that its at the end of its life cycle this year. Thanks for showcasing the emulations, im ready to mod now!
No problem!
Hey I was wondering if you know how to set up the Ryujinx switch emulator on the switch after its jailbroken. I was able to get atmosphere set up. Most the Ryujinx guides just show people playing on pc at the end but im hoping to get it on the switch hardware. Any help is apricated! @@JoeysRetroHandhelds
I have some confusion, but you're looking to put a switch emulator on a switch? That seems, weird lol
Its probably so they can get games like botw for "free"@@JoeysRetroHandhelds
There's a Flycast standalone emulator for Dreamcast that plays basically everything perfectly. Retroarch adds a lot of overhead that hurts performance.
Unfortunately it’s not true. Without over-clocking, Dreamcast just doesn’t “fly” on the Flycast. Very disappointed performance, even half resolution still unplayable.
How about redream?
@@jerrriell im just getting back into modding my switch again im trying to remember what emulators i used but i played dreamcast hydro thunder with zero issues
for the gran turismo just turn on the gpu read backs in the graphics options and it will be playable
Excelente video 👍🏼
I have no clue how to do any of this to my switch lol. I'm just getting into emulation handhelds, and have a few anbernics and miyoos. But my daughter would love it if I could hack the switch. Great video brotha!
It runs Switch games really well. A modded OLED is the pinnacle of free gaming handhelds. I have a 1.5TB SD filled with 300 Switch games. I learned how to micro solder too. It's hard to even fathom emulation on this system with the full Switch library at your disposal.
Yeah there's always junk ewaste to practice electeonics soldering on before trying a mod for real.
I absolutely love my OLED switch and I definitely don’t want to risk bricking it, but I’d love to get my hands on a used switch lite solely for emulation. I mostly just want a portable gcn emulator, but I definitely don’t wanna drop $400 on a steam deck. I’m heavily considering modding a lite or kicking up one of the newer anbernic 405s because I heard the recent updates drastically improved gcn performance
Take a look at the AYN Odin, which if you get your foot in the door early will get you a solid deal, just be prepared to wait
@@bobcake8904 I’ve been looking into it, but I’m not really prepared to drop that much money on something I don’t know if I’ll ever see
@@LothlorBass Odin Lite seems pretty cool for the price. It will run most of the PS2 & Gamecube games but it doesn't have as nice of a screen as the Switch OLED.
I have a modded lite for sale if you're interested
also has retroRch and games on it
oled are fully hackable without bricking
I hope in the future there is a software hack for the switch as I would love to use my switch lite as a emulation handheld :)
Ocarina of Time 3D running on Switch is SO BEAUTIFUL 😢❤
I have two Switches, a V2 and a Lite. Haven’t updated the Lite in ages in hopes of a software mod, but that may not be a thing until much much later!
I’ll just live vicariously through you, haha.
I'm not sure we'll ever see a software mod, but I hope we do!
honestly you're better off looking for a v1 or using a mod chip but if you're gonna go that route I'd recommend getting an OLED anyway for a bigger and brighter screen.
I can't wait to mod my silver Lite to hunt achievements on it :)
It's important to note that NOT ALL V1 Switches can be modded with the RCM jig. In Mid-2018, Nintendo updated the V1 Switch to patch to RCM exploit.
I miss my V1 modded Switch. I would love an OLED modded Switch tbh.
Do any of the games and systems that use rumble have rumble on the switch? Like PSX, N64, etc.
I have the v1 switch but I’m waiting for them to come out with a new switch model so I can get an upgrade and the mod my old one
which retroarch version works for you i'm on 16.1.0 still can't find a way to open retroarch?
Did u do any overclocking? or stick with 1020mhz
Could you tell me where can I find Duckstation for Switch and how to install it step by step? Thnx
I'll mod the Switch when they officially stop supporting it. In time people will find a much easier way to hack it in that time, like with the 3DS and PS3, PS4 etc.
They just need to find an exploit like the vita and that sucker will be wide open
@@Drivenby I agree. though I might not even mod my switch unless it's to install my physical games onto an SD card like with jailbreaking a 3DS.
It's already at that point. It's not going to get any easier than it is now. Just get a jig and your good to go.
@@kevincampbell989 How do you know it won't get any easier? A lot of gaming hardware that was only moddable physically eventually was able to be modded via software only.
its so easy though
Np i got a jailbreaked 3ds.
Where i van play everything from nes up to 3ds.
Thnx for the show off
Thats really cool
Regarding PSP emulation, unfortunately Im pretty sure the emulator doesnt really adjust automatically and there are specific setting like for ex. core clock speed that can be changed per game to make it run smoother
Ppsspp funciona mejor en Linux 😬
CAN YOU ADD SCANLINES OR SHADERS WITH THESE EMULATORS? THANKS, and can the switch cpu handle it?
How do I add cores to retroarch on switch
is it possible to emulate while in docked mode? planning to play some PSP games on my TV while my switch is docked
Yep.
Do a modded Switch still mantain the original Switch OS too, I hope?
I mean: is there a dual boot option, so I could go in using the normal Switch with all my games and saves (and system updates from Nintendo too)?
Yep
im using retroarch to play 3ds how do you change the screen placment?
Hey you earned a NEW SUBCRIBER! love gaming devices 😭, btw can we play these EMULATORS on the PC & TV?? like same like how we nintendo switch games on PC & TV.
Yep!
Hey thanks for the reply, thank god you replied fast because earlier I didn’t subcribe you properly, and did properly and yes am a subcriber!!
Oh ya lastly when we mod nintendo switch, is there any cons to it like maybe no software update or nintendo switch updates?
Also can’t wait for many more videos in the future! Keep up the good work!
🙌🏻❤️💪🏻
Nope, no cons at all!
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds thanks mate! Truly appreciate it, now i’m REALLY INTERESTED IN IT but i’ll for the new nintendo switch, since there’s rumors going around about it!
Cheers! 💪🏻👊🏻
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds Hey i’m still loving your videos, and because of this video i’m still planning to purchase a modded version.
But i also do still want to wait on the new nintendo switch 2 and in a modded version hehe,
or i was thinking about buying a modded nintendo switch oled or the odin 2 pro?
Which would you suggest is the best gaming handheld if i want to play all nintendo games from gbc, gba, ds, 3ds, to nintendo switch emulators & games and as well as psp emulators, also mobile and optional bonus pc game if possible. Ya gbc to mobile games i mentioned above should be good enough.
Which would be a best handheld that plays of all these emulators i mentioned above in a proper good quality performance?
Or is buying an laptop perfect for that 😂?
Oh ya Whenever we download all these emulators do we have to pay or it’s a free download in both these handhelds?
Is there a trusted company I can send my OLED model to, and get the mod attached ?
how did you do the wii u emulation the switch oled?
please show me your diskstation settings on nintendo switch
This time i am going to preorder a switch2 and never touch it until a year later. By then a CFW should have been made ready for first gen switch2 consoles.
No idea a switch could do this. I love my OLED but I just picked up a cheap Lite I might try to mod.
Sorry to say but the lite cant be modded
You might be able to
Yes it can, with the modchip.
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds oh thats pretty neat, i didnt know you could use the mod chip on a lite
@@aeroplanething yeah it seems that after the Gen 1 switch any one can be modded with a soddered chip
It's so wild that emulators work so much better on Android than on the switch side! I suppose emulators on Android are better optimized.
It's not that big of a surprise considering that the Tegra chip that came out with the switch was dated at launch. Plus modern smartphones and tablets have come a long way in terms of hardware inside, there are a lot of variables of course but the majority of people have upgraded their devices during the lifespan of the switch.
@@otakukj i mean on the same hardware.. emulators run better on the Switch in Android mode than they do with the regular custom firmware. Android has more overhead as an OS so you would think it wouldn't run as well.
Is there a way to disable the side bars on the screen for say the snes9x 2010 emulator?
You mean stretch the image? Yeah.
Where did you happen to buy your pre modded OLED?
I got mine from Stethix, highly recommend.
Wait what I wanted to also buy a pre modded olhed switch cause my Samsung s10e(global edition so bad chip) wasn’t that good at emulating PS2 but it could run god of war psp at 1080p 60fps and Pokémon x 3ds 720p 60fps and n64 was also running smooth and it ran god of war PS2 at a 40-50 vps it would lag constantly
11:30 "Gee-An-Dee-Arc" lol
can I please know where did you find the Duckstation NRO file? the github only shows mac,linux, and windows
cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/458005814549020672/1053295337562980432/duckstation_switch.7z
@@JoeysRetroHandheldsthank youuu 😭
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds Thanks Joey, but can I ask where you get this from? I can't find it on the official duckstation website...
It's a community port from the Retro NX Discord.
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds ah, I found it, it is a pinned comment. Thank you 😊
It can run Saturn too.
Will be any update in PSP and Dreamcast emulation on atmos ?
Doubtful.
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds sad to know that.
If you have a v1 switch I'm pretty sure the android version that runs on it is very old and outdated wouldn't recommend probably has vulnerability security that's been hacked to
Play DS in Android mode using Drastic and you will get 100% full speed, even with Pokémon White and other hard games.
can You connect it to a tv and play with a friend using 2 bluetooth joysticks?
Yes
Can any of these emulators allow you to play co-op?
lmao
how to instal all of this emulation
it would have been fun to play The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time remake for 3DS on Nintendo switch that would be awesome Nintendo if you're reading this this is a Miss opportunity dude
The whole franchise as an anniversary thing or something??? Nah we zelda fans stuck with tears gameplay from here on
can youemulate ps2 on switch?thanks
Should I get a modded OLED or switch v2 to save some money
Get a girlfriend and go out.
tbh, i'll just use the switch for switch stuff. emulation on a handheld is exclusively on my steam deck. it just does it better, and battery life is very good on emulation.
Steam deck has nothing on switch emulation battery life
@@idontknow390it can run more than switch can, and i dont game for more than 5 hours straight, which the deck does for emulation. if ya do super long sessions and play ps2/gc/wii u/xbox 360/ps3(not sure if switch can even do some of those well enough) than maybe itll win out, but i cant imagine anyone needing it for that long without the option to charge eventually. then there is the problem of needing a chip... because the v1 switches have awful battery life. those are 100% losing to the deck, its not even a contest. i have one, for reference. you would need an oled or later model to even hope to make it fair lol
edit - also worth noting, decks battery life drops greatly playing wii u/ps3/xbox 360, but its better than the switches in those cases, which is 0 hours... because its too weak to do so lol. id even say if you wanted to mod one of those models with better battery, its just plain better to get a deck... most switch games run fine on it too now, and its way more capable as an emulation device
@@Zalibidas but the switch is more portable and last longer and for new the switch has port of those as well and the switch don't get heavy in your hand as quickly
@@idontknow390you used a deck for a long time? the weight is nothing. can go hours holding the thing. its got such a good form factor the weight ends up being a non-issue. switch is more portable but not by much... if you want something for portability, retroid pocket or anbernic devices beat both switch and deck in both portability and battery life. switch does not have ports of those higher requirement emulators that run well. the switch is just too weak. thats where devices like the deck or rog ally come in. the switch is actually in some weird area in the middle that doesnt make too much sense for most people for that specific purpose. its fine, but there are better options on all fronts. if you chip the oled model its a pretty good device for it, but you either buy it premodded costing more than a deck which is pointless or you risk damaging your existing switch. im not saying switch is bad for this stuff, but the deck is just flat out better. if i can find some time i can do a side by side in video. have both available to me. the one device people seem to forget that is pretty insane for emulation, portability, battery life and interesting library or games is the ps vita which is in kind of a perfect spot for what most people want imo
Tested god of war, it lags so badly. Any fix for it guys? thanks!
not all v1 Switchs can be modded by software, it must be a unpatched v1, there is a way to know if your v1 switch is patched or not...
And Saturn?
Would you rather mod a Nintendo Switch or buy one of those Chinese handheld emulators that runs everything?
Depends. If you want to play Switch games at all, you'd want a Switch. But if you want pure retro games, that work perfectly for PSP and under, you might want a Chinese handheld, yeah.
Get a steam deck it on sale for $350. Then upgrade with a 1tb ssd for $100. It can emulate everything up to the ps3.
@@wcw209suck I did that but grown bored of the Deck. Its too damn big and bulky for a handheld.
Lately I've discoveered galaxys S phones with? OLED screen and PS dual shock controllers are great tool for your emulation/ gaming needs
Anything really
Can the Switch Lite do this as well?
Yep
Uhm yeah but you do need to sodder the mod chip into it
It is very hard to hack a lite.
What about psvita emulator?
i emulated a switch, to emulate 3ds, to emulate gba, to play gameboy games.
12 threads used to play GBC :D I like that.
😄@@Wrublos212
no dpad
Can I in the 3ds and ds emulator turn the picture layout to vertical and put the tablet on its side so that the image displays more like the original console. Since the joycons are detachable, I don't think this would be a problem, but is there such a feature in the emulator itself?
Can you get ppsspp on Nintendo switch v2 with out taking it apart and putting the chip in
Nope.
Can you do mod installation for Nintendo switch v2
Yep, you have to solder the modchip.
Can I use kapton tape and thermal paste instead of isopropy alcohol cause I don't have it
@@lawrencecarter5522 im not sure why youd ever mix the two, they all do very different things
How do I setup Dusckstation on my Switch?? Any help?
No the best Mode for emulate ds IS with desmune for android.
Any ability for it to do xbox 360?
Nope
I’ll mod my switch once the new Nintendo console comes out.
If you don't have a Switch though you're better off getting something like Odin 2 Pro or another powerful Android device since you'll be able to play PS2, Gamecube, and others the Switch can't run.
not all are hackable lol what do you say?mine is patched so not hackable :/
All are hackable, patched needs the hardware mod.
could i send in my switch for money and and you mod it?
DS needs some optimization, specially considering MUCH WEAKER phones can perfectly run DS at native resolution, and even at higher, I could run DS perfectly fine with the high 3D resolution option enabled and the Scale x2 filter applied on my old LG Q6, which can't even run Minecraft well anymore, the Switch is plenty more powerfull and perfectly capable of running DS perfectly in terms of hardware capabilities, it's just being limited by software, I wonder how well it would run on Android, considering that under Android it can even run Genshin Impact, and Genshin is by NO means an easy game to run, even current mid ranges struggle with it, said mid ranges will have a literally perfect performance emulating DS, and it's even more clear when you take into account the Switch can even emulate itself under Linux
We’re can I buy one
Maryeeocaart
hopefully switch 2 will be hackable
testing psp emulation on the switch - doesn't test monster hunter? what's the point?
Feel free to go ahead and test whatever game you like, film the videos and share the link here! Looking forward to seeing your work :)
Great vid. But my dude... it's pronouced "Jaann Dark" with a soft "Je" pronounced like the "ge" in garage.
"D'Arc" is one word... The d apostrophe means "of." She's a French historical figure and in English it's literally "Joan of Arc." So at least go "Jane Dark."
But GnD Arc??? What the heck bro?! 😅
Lo curioso es que los anglos... Pronuncian todo feo. 🤭😬
@@furbi963... And you know what we think of how you sound when you speak English?
@@PhilosophyofGuitar 🤭 jejeje inglés británico, inglés australiano, inglés estadounidense, inglés de la India.... 😏
@@furbi963No way bro, all vis Een-gleesh? Nooo homie...
@@PhilosophyofGuitar very guacamole ese🤔
“Merry-oh”? C'mon. Have you never played a Mario game and heard him say his own name? Please tell me one, single, game where he pronounces it as "Merry-oh". 😂
Merry Christmas!
I’ll never mod my switch, for nostalgic purposes, I want to stay the same thing. If I need emulators I can always use my phone/tablet.
Isitwössit?
I was thinking about hacking my Switch so I Googled what emulators run well on the Switch and this video popped up. Thanks for making this video. It made me decide not to do it. A cheap $60 Anbernic device has better emulation performance than this.
Check my video on what the Android side on the Switch can do.
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds The Android side looks promising. So when I jailbreak my system for the first time and it asks about partitions, should I set the Android one to 16 GB right off the bat so I don't have to re-partition again later? Does the Android side read your games from the EmuMMC or Android partition?
And Nintendo will banned your account thanks you for showing to them.
This has been around since the release of the Switch :)
Emulation is 🗑️🚮🗑️🗑️🗑️ 🗑️
What.
