Yoshi wooly world emu 💪. Been trying to get it running thru winlator with no luck. The 3ds version with citra upscaling is....interesting just not right. Thanks Cemu. As always another great vid by X-tended. Keep up the great work.

I only use Cemu for Twilight Princess and Wind Waker HD.

[RacerXer]

Nope.
Just an FYI a Dualshock 4 works perfectly with Cemu/Splatoon. 👍 I also use it to play Breath of the Wild.

I have steam deck and one game runs worst on cemu - mario cart 8, cuz drop fps sometimes . On yuzu this game runs much better - stable 60 fps.

Xenoblade X alone makes Cemu relevant. Plus, BotW runs way better on Cemu. And with lower budget third parties that'll likely never get ported, I don't think Cemu will ever not be at least a little relevant. Honestly, I really hope Ryujinx will become as performant as yuzu soon.

[Basthey]

Pretty sure there are 60fps and other visual mods/patches out there for BOTW for Ryujinx. Because they are out there for TOTK. And they are pretty easy to install.

Affordable Space Adventures, keeps me coming back to the Cemu

[Sairiui]

I would answer your video title with a "Not really", because there are still many games on Wii U that never came to Switch.

As more games move from Wii U to Switch, I could see it due to it being easier to run games with one screen rather than two.. but even then, you could just map a button and swap screens... YMMV, imo.

Ryujinx on apple silicon is a crap shoot. Constant crashes, if the game even loads at all, but CEMU, is rock solid. I know max isn’t meant for gaming, but when I want to play some on the side. I’m not going to buy a whole new computer just for emulation

with an 8bitdo controller, i can play games that require/use gyro controls without any issues. and if i need to use the gamepad's toucshscreen, using spacedesk on my phone to act as a second touchscreen monitor and touch inputs work flawlessly. it helps to have a phone holder that latches onto the controller too for convenience sake

[arenared]

Two different systems. Both emulated, doesn’t make one obsolete. The basics of emulation is not to have platforms compete but rather to showcase their nostalgia.

[mutechannel]

No way.... That's like asking if psp emulator make ps2 emulator obsolete

[bobcake]

I think there’s a guy who’s programming a Wii U gamepad app for mobile to allow your phone to act as a gamepad to your official Wii U and emulators- so that should be exciting!

[ninstars]

If the discussion was about two emulators targeting the same system then you could make a point, but when it is two emulators for completely different systems this kind of logic is just absurd and has no valid reason to be brought up.

[arewealone]

Would be cool if the Wii U gamepad worked with the emulator.

[mozydiaz]

And with lossless Scaling you play your games at 60fps and more, recently I played Twilight Princess on Dolphin with the Henrico Magifico HD texture packs, the experience was more fluid with LS at 75fps, it was really cool.

[Cyberbrickmaster]

So how would Yoshi's Woolly World work on Cemu? Or is it better to emulate the 3DS version?
Also, are there any updates regarding Mii support? Because I want to be able to play A World of Keflings and I don't know whether or not I can on Xenia.

[coreybell]

I was referring to the android release of cemu. I didnt realize you were only discussing the pc version. Whoops 😂

[Germaneworld]

Hey folks, which emulator would be better for RTX 3050?

[luvergod]

Ryzen 7 7700x, 7900 GRE 32GB ram and I cant get Ryujinx to run games correctly.
