How powerful is it for emulation? I have a razer kishi for my s22, and emulate various consoles like gbc, gba, nes, snes, etc. I assume the deck would be more powerful than that, but is it powerful enough to emulate switch? I currently emulate switch on my desktop using yuzu.

Yup, there are a few exceptions with games that just don’t run well on Yuzu regardless of specs, but in general it runs Switch great!

You should look into EmuDeck. I’ve been emulating for years and never experienced anything make it all so easy like EmuDeck does, it’s wild. Especially all the hotkeys it sets up for you, for stuff like save states.

I mostly play GBA, DS, 3DS, and PSP, but I also emulate GameCube, PS2, WiiU, and Switch too and without issue.

Check out RetroGameCorps’ video if you’re curious. It goes over everything and is literally the video that the EmuDeck website itself links to.
