On a sidr note,the progression of the switch modding scene has been incredible, it's moving quicker then I ever expected it to. May the 3ds finally rest for a bit after so long, stay safe.

      Reason it runs smoothly for them is they are overclocking the switch's cpu, gpu and memory and running it. Unfortunitely you can only overclock the cpu in retroarch's settings. But thanks to tesla you are able to overclock the gpu and memory as well achieving fantastic results! Also if that doesnt work might I suggest trying to download a more recent citra core. :)

      Installing homebrew and retroarch wont get you banned as long as your offline. As soon as you go online you run the risk of getting banned. By modding a switch infact your accepting those risks. That being said there are ways to completely block every single one of Nintendo's IP addresses and mask your switch so it has a blanked out serial number. That way they can't track anything even if you do go online lol.

    you play the game in full screen? I got 2 screens on 1. How do you do this miracle?

      Retroarch has a built in setting that allows you to change the screen layouts. If you hit + and - at the same time you can open the quick menu and the toggle which screen layout you want. But do please note that you will need to memorize where your items are which caaan be a hassle sometimes so I usually keep it on 2 screens. 1 with a big screen and 1 as a tiny screen.

      It’s called the retroarch rom forwarder. Look it up. It’s pretty easy to set up.
