Dolphin on the pi 4?

[MayImilae]

So it appears the post that image was taken from (on forums.redflagdeals.com, super credible) has been removed. Hmm.

Meanwhile, on Raspberry Pi's website...

Spoiler: (Show Spoiler)

So here's where the confusion is coming from: the hardware could theoretically support OpenGL ES 3.2. THEORETICALLY. But the video driver currently does not support OpenGL ES 3.2, because the video driver can't make compliance with 3.1, let alone 3.2. The one who made their driver stack has left Broadcom, so Broadcom is not going to put in the effort to change this. It's possible at some point in the future that someone outside broadcom will go through the effort to bring OpenGL ES 3.2 or Vulkan support to the driver, but it would have to be a random outsider, and there's no telling when or IF that will happen. Currently no one is working on it.

Do not purchase a Pi 4 with the expectation that this situation will change. Enjoy the Pi 4 for what it is, and be happy if it improves!

Also do not expect that Vulkan, if it does come, will magically make the Pi 4 run Dolphin games at full speed. That's not happening.
