Switch emulator Eden is surviving life after Nintendo kicked it off GitHub - Reddthat

Lemmy

Got Eden on my Steam Deck, runs so good. Nintendo could learn a thing or two tbh.

Emulators are legal, there’s enough precedent for that, Nintendo’s just butthurt that their games run better on 3rd party emulators than they do on their own hardware.

I’m not sure about good. It somehow runs games a little worse than Yuzu did.
tbf, eden is a new development and pretty young compared to yuzu and how mature it was. at least afaik
I know. But I still find it odd, since Eden is a fork of Yuzu, and not something built from the ground up.

Yuzu is also still around, although mostly dead.

About what happened to Yuzu

Yuzu was sued by Nintendo America and paid USD 2.4 Million in settlement

The original developers behind Yuzu (Tropic Haze LLC) were taken to court earlier this year and agreed to pay the above sum to Nintendo, they were also ordered to shut down and destroy all the data. It is important to remember that any game you play you physically/digitally own and you should NEVER download ROMS without explicit written consent from the original author/copyright owner. Please always follow the law and make sure you own the official disc, cartridge or have the ROM downloaded with permission from the copyright holder. Whatever you do to play in an un-common way e.g. Using an Emulator, please acquire the legal permissions needed to do so before continuing from the original copyright authors.

It has no trouble playing Super Mario Wonder at full speed and 1080p, that’s good enough in my books.
On my PC, sure. But I was easily playing Switch games on my Deck, which… Well… Performance is lacking.
Huh, runs totally fine on my OLED Deck with the CryoUtilities enhancements.
CryoUtilities. I’m not using that. What does it do?
It’s basically a bunch of scripts to tweak performance; you can watch the very good explanation by its creator . It does boost performance quite a bit.

Hey, you do you.

This sounds like the kind of stuff that breaks Steam Deck software after random system updates, though.

It won’t. The most that can happen is that every change gets reverted after a system update.
I’ll check it out. Thanks!
