Re: Drastic's Future

You can also find me on Reddit (u/Ericbazinga) and Discord (in the DraStic Discord server). You'll find me in those places almost daily and here almost never.

But i have citra running on switch through Lakka, i tested it myself....but runs slow, needs a jit....how it can run on switch but not android?
Re: Drastic's Future
Because Lakka essentially is running a Linux distro with Retroarch installed, not much different from running it on a PC. The situation is entirely different on Android. This has been asked to death countless times on the Citra forums and it's github page. I must reiterate:#Shake wrote:allright...SSUPII wrote:Exo is not interested in doing a 3DS emulator at the moment.

Android phones are not powerful enough yet, the Switch is using a very high end nVidia Chipset but as you have stated, it runs slowly even on that.Are you planning to make an Android version?
No, not at the moment.
Re: Drastic's Future
RetroArch was officially launched for Switch, hopefully one day Drastic will be a part of it...

Re: Drastic's Future
Yip, Retroarch 1.7.5 was launched.. Switch now has access to 42+ Retro Systems, everything from Atari 2600 - PS1 (N64 too but not officially released since it requires a Dynarec to get 100% but it does work)#Shake wrote: Tue Oct 02, 2018 7:58 pm RetroArch was officially launched for Switch, hopefully one day Drastic will be a part of it...oh okay....#Shake wrote: Sun Sep 30, 2018 1:00 pmallright...SSUPII wrote:

citra is unnoficially running on android
But from a DraStic standpoint (since you're most likely showing us this so you can say "They have it and it can be done, how about you guys make one?"), Exophase has stated that he currently has no interest in making a 3DS emulator. Perhaps in the future he might, but i'm not a psychic so I wouldn't know.

Re: Drastic's Future
It does not, but since they are shipping a 32-bit ARM variant now, all it would probably take to get running is compiling SDL2 (only 1.2 seems to be in the image right now).
