Dolphin already works on the nintendo switch

With the hacking of the Nintendo Switch, it was expected that the first emulators would not take long to reach the hybrid console, something that has finally happened, with Dolphin being the privileged one.

They manage to make the Dolphin emulator work on the Nintendo Switch, all the details

Hacking the Nintendo Switch opens the possibility of running software not signed by Nintendo, backup loaders and emulators from other consoles are the most popular applications of this kind. Dolphin is one of the best-known emulators, since it allows you to play Wii and Gamecube games, and even improve graphics and resolution.

Dolphin is already working on the Nintendo Switch thanks to the work of Delroth, one of the best-known characters in the world of emulation and reverse engineering. The emulator still needs a lot of work, because for now The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker works at a speed between 20 and 25 FPS, which is not very far from the goal of 30 FPS, but it is not enough to enjoy a good gaming experience.

In any case, the work has already started, it is expected that a version of Dolphin for the Nintendo Switch will be made available to users very soon, and that this version is much more worked and offers better performance than what has been been able to see now. The image shown was taken on February 17, so there must have been a fair amount of optimization work done on this version of Dolphin for the Nintendo console since then. We will have to be attentive to the appearance of new details.
