Nintendo Switch support (conceptually)? - b0undarybreaker - 10-16-2018 Libnx, the Nintendo Switch homebrew library, recently added support for OpenGL. Now that it's possible to use, would it conceptually be possible to port Dolphin to Switch homebrew/how hard would it be to? I'm not volunteering to do it because I don't know nearly enough C/C++ to help RE: Nintendo Switch support (conceptually)? - ExtremeDude2 - 10-16-2018 It's already been shown running on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7D6iDyrrIc RE: Nintendo Switch support (conceptually)? - b0undarybreaker - 10-16-2018 That video makes it seem kinda gray if it'll be possible. Animal Crossing is a really lightweight game, and it's running not the best on a Linux boot on the switch. MayImilae says that the clocks seem to be set wrong so AC should be running full-speed, but that doesn't say anything for more intensive games. I'd guess it'd be *possible* to run Dolphin on Switch homebrew instead of on Linux, but not that good an experience playing. RE: Nintendo Switch support (conceptually)? - Helios - 10-16-2018 It's possible, but nobody is interested in maintaining a jailbroken switch homebrew port right now.
