    following the thread from yesterday, the current meta is:
    version: "Yuzu development build | HEAD-mainline-636-9058-gecd22c9d8-dirty (2022-07-08)" (grabbed by EmuDeck)
    steam overlay: 30/60fps&60hz, force lock lock GPU at 1600MHz
    yuzu game properties: 0.75-1x resolution, GPU normal, handheld mode
    6-8 threads in power tools (usually 7), CPU boost enabled

    still barely optimized, just a rough preset that is working well atm

    I don't think anyone actually plays switch games on this device because all I ever see is screenshots of the title screen or of the first level or first 10 minutes

    Instead let's talk about how deck gays are going to make threads having mental meltdowns when Nintendo makes a new console and they can't emulate it

      Kinda hard to do since Ganker is 90% console wars at this point.

      so, here are my results so far
      (haven't really had time to test much, only got my deck a few days ago)
      https://pastebin.com/eXgzp0qL

      going to be trying some mods soon:
      https://yuzu-emu.org/wiki/switch-mods/
      -very- curious about the no more heroes 720p mod,
      also seeing if i can disable vsync in metroid dread and use the steamoverlay to cap it instead for better performance

      Dolphin is easy on the system. Just... Don't ever try to emulate the waggle controls

        Frick. I was hoping to play Pikmin 2 on it with its new play controls.
        Its fricking impossible to go back to non-waggle Pikmin.

    What am I doing wrong? Why does XC2 still run like shit? I swear I've recompiled the shader caches a bunch of times already and it's still sub 30fps (worse than the fricking switch) and the game just shits itself during chapter 3.
    Someone please help, I did everything on the guide on XCDE and XC2 on running it on Yuzu.

      Xenoblade is never going to work perfectly on Yuzu. You can try and get as close to stable 30fps as much as you can. Try raijinx

        >rollback netcode for smash even
        You can't even play most stages with the rollback mod on the switch let alone the one on Ryujinx. I would know since I bum that game out.

    Will emulators ever figure out how to use more than 30% of our CPU?
