I know Vulkan is an irrelevant topic when it comes to the vita, but I deeply believe dolphin isn't. The vita has DirectX 9 and OpenGL 3.3 support. What makes the Vita not a first grab for the emulator? It is merely capable handling dolphin as to an android device. No?

Dolphin on the vita?

Wow.

Also, the Vita also has OpenGLES 2.0 support, not full OpenGL 3.3! Dolphin's mininum OpenGLES version is 3.0. JoeRaptorisback Wrote:What makes the Vita not a first grab for the emulator? Because it's really old and really weak? A brand new super powerful phone SoC can't run Dolphin well. What makes you think a six year old one would be powerful enough? ![]() AMD Threadripper Pro 5975WX PBO+200 | Asrock WRX80 Creator | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 FE | 64GB DDR4-3600 Octo-Channel | Windows 11 22H2 | (details)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbjmxuu4XQY -vita specs anyone? I come with reason behind my claim. Someone 10 years back managed to run null DC on the PSP. this was apparently forgotten and lost. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV3EuUmJIZA If that could be done, that same could be possible with the vita, no? i believe the vita is more capable to at least emulate PS2 and Wii. How exactly did you guys learn to compile c++ to ARM though? I'd like to start writing and compiling code to unlock these long lost mysteries finally. JoeRaptorisback Wrote:i believe the vita is more capable to at least emulate PS2 and Wii. ![]() Maybe try listening to us who do know about these things? EDIT: Ok, lets take a look at Geekbench. It doesn't have any Vita CPU benchmarks, but the iPhone 4S uses the Cortex A9 too, but with a different clockspeed. Let's use that to analyze how the Vita compares to the A57s in the Nvidia Shield Android TV. - iPhone 4S single core: 286 multi core: 490 But the vita runs at 333mhz, and the iPhone 4S runs at 800mhz! So lets do some math to convert those numbers... Vita single core: 119 multi core: 408 (the vita has twice as many cores as the iphone, so 204x2) Now lets compare this to the Nvidia Android Shield TV's A57s... Nvidia Android Shield TV single core: 1491 multi core: 4262 - No contest! ![]() AMD Threadripper Pro 5975WX PBO+200 | Asrock WRX80 Creator | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 FE | 64GB DDR4-3600 Octo-Channel | Windows 11 22H2 | (details)

But doesn't overclocking change everything? It's a 2 ghz CPU.
It overclocks to 444mhz.

The Vita doesn't let itself run beyond 444mhz. ![]() AMD Threadripper Pro 5975WX PBO+200 | Asrock WRX80 Creator | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 FE | 64GB DDR4-3600 Octo-Channel | Windows 11 22H2 | (details)

No. The Vita's GPU can't physically handle Dolphin(or proper NGC GPU emulation at all). It doesn't support /tons/ of features Dolphin needs for the GPU emulation. Also even if that wasn't the case, the CPU is pitiful. It brings the latest generation of ARM CPUs to its knees. A wimpy underclocked Cortex-A9 can't do anything. 01-18-2017, 03:07 PM

So um, that's Sonicadvance1. The writer of the ARM Jit, and why Dolphin is able to work on ARM at all. He knows what Dolphin needs!
