cemu vs dolphin

Shadorino · 02-08-2018, 06:26 AM **#11**

I don't use emulators because I'm don't want to pay for games. I have a GameCube, a Wii, a Wii U, and many games. I do it because the picture quality is greatly enhanced on PC, whereas with consoles it is much more limited.

In the case of the Switch, I'd be more than happy to pay 60 € for Breath of The Wild and Mario Odyssey if they were released on PC, but I already paid a pretty penny for my computer parts, I don't want to have to pay an extra 300 € for potato hardware to enjoy the 900p 30 fps master race.

Someone give some bt passthorugh code to cemu. They need wii remote support desperately.

that is the problem with closed source softwares, not everyone can contribute to the project

Sure, latest builds add minor fixes. Seems dev is stuck.

Also, if Cemu did try to use some of Dolphin's code, I'm pretty sure that would violate the GPL licensing

Dev is stuck? Didn't they just add dual core mode, compatibility for a bunch more games, fixes for a ton of graphical bugs and more? I've been nothing but impressed by their speed. I just highly highly doubt Wii remote support is a priority for them right now since 99% of games don't use it.

Everything that's early in development has big changes as it's the time some of the fundamental stuff are created. This is very normal.

If famous emulator were persons

Dolphin - respected elder

PPSSPP - a man at his 50's that is still going to work because he is not yet stable

ePSXe - a man at his 50's that has a stable life

PCSX2 - also a man at his 40's but acts and thinks as a teenager

CEMU - a 5 year old kid who behaves like a teenager

Citra - a teenage kid that is still peeing on his pants

RPCS3 - a 7 year old kid who is learning how to walk

Desmume - a young adult who behaves like a 10 year old kid

do you agree?

All those emulators aren't that bad to use to what you might suggest.

Citra for example is perfect enough so far to fully complete A Link Between Worlds... Still got to redo the Mario & Luigi series on Citra and so far it is working perfectly. If there is any issue it would be performance with most of the newer emulators. You just need a stronger PC or wait it out until the performance is going to be boosted.

I can't really recall the last time I had a crash with Citra either, or mGBA or PCSX2 for example. Cemu has the tendency to crash once in a while with Breath of the Wild but the frequency of that has been quite decreased with newer updates. It mostly depends on your settings as well... Personally I feel that RPCS3 is more stable than CEMU. But CEMU isn't that bad either. Nowadays CEMU is sufficient as a replacement for my Wii U for quite some games. Being able to run Breath of the Wild or Super Mario 3D World in 4K is amazing, and I get to multitask on my PC.
