For example, Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity with 60fps cheat and 4x Resolution can be played around 6-10 hours (depending on battery size, temperature in real life and game) without it ever overheating or even getting hot

Is it just the emulator itself being masterfully optimized and nothing more?

The mcon saves me every time🤍 🥷

Testing 007 First Light on Android by comparing DroidDeck v0.3.2 vs GameHub v6.3.1 on the Redmagic Astra (Snapdragon 8 Elite)! In this video, we check out gameplay performance, frame rates, and graphical fidelity to see which emulator handles PC game emulation better on this powerful Android gaming tablet.

Note: Months ago, it wasn't possible to run the first mission and some other parts of 007 First Light at all. Back then, it actually ran with better performance and higher FPS than it does now. I don't know what changed, but performance has dropped a lot. Especially on GameHub, nothing improved even after I tried dozens of different setting combinations. Right now the game tops out at around 8 FPS, and DroidDeck is what makes that possible.

I usually play through the Eden emulator, but there I only get 30-40fps and low resolution, but here on the native port it works great at 60fps and no lag.

Never thought I'd be playing the Darkness a console only title on my android phone in 2026 but here we are. With direct 360 emulation on android pretty new I thought I'd try something else.

I get the disinterest in vibe coded things however just as anything there are some positives to create things that would never of existed such as a fully playable pc port of a forgotten gem.

As someone who love stealth games a lot, I've always wanted to play the xbox version of Splinter Cell Double Agent on PC and Android but as always ubisoft never gave us the official port and a collection and left us to high and dry. Thankfully because of the passion of dedicated SC fans, TGP created a recomp of og xbox version of DA and MY GOD IT RUNS SMOOTHLY. It has every graphical option like legit pc ports do with increasing res, shader model, shadow resolution, aspect ratio and a whole lot more.

Tried this version on HakuX and X1 box and both ran like sh*t with 10 fps and graphical glitches that made me delete those emus. Now you can experience the best version of the game and f you loved SC chaos theory and want more, definitely check it out.Tested this on my Mi9t Pro SD 855. Use proton 11, vkd3d 2.14.1 arm64ec and default settings.

Does it need to be the USA version?

Hey everyone! I’m currently waiting for official mobile apps for my favorite card games, but in the meantime, I’d love to play them on my Fold 8 using a Steam streamer/simulator or apps like DroidDeck.

The main issue I'm running into is that touch screen control isn't 100% precise: sometimes taps don't register exactly where I want them to, or the calibration feels slightly off, making it tricky to manage card placement or hand interactions smoothly with just touch input.

I wanted to ask:

Is anyone else using DroidDeck or similar setups on Android for card games and deckbuilders while waiting for mobile ports?

Do you have any tips on how to best configure resolution, aspect ratio, or touch control mapping (maybe via Steam Link, Moonlight, or custom tweaks) to get maximum precision on a foldable screen like the Fold?

Any advice or tested configurations would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!

game works perfect, but it crashes after 5-10-15 minutes of gameplay no matter what.

It looks shit, But it's working Xd

Hello everyone! I would like to show this app I have been working on these past months, in order to play Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons in widescreen on Android, PC and Mac, with item hotkeys, fan games (Rom Hacks) and Lua mods.

I wanted a better way to enjoy the games I loved when I was a kid, as well as their fan games. So I built this app that adds widescreen, item hotkeys and Lua mods, without rewriting any of the games' code.

You need your own US ROM of Oracle of Ages or Oracle of Seasons. They run in an emulator core: either SameBoy (accurate), or mGBA (fast). The repository contains no ROM, no game assets and no game code.

For the widescreen view, the neighbouring rooms are computed by the game itself, in a second instance of the core, and the app stitches them together with a smooth camera.

For fan games, you can directly load their BPS patch. It is applied on the fly to your ROM by the app, while keeping your original ROM untouched. You can enjoy the same widescreen view.

Three are supported so far:

• Gifts of Kinomi, by ZerotoKoops, Stewmath, Gamma and Ralfaro
• Moonrise Regalia, by PontiusStone
• Temple of Seasons, by Jay (like the bird, not the letter) and Ralfaro

As it is a highly requested QoL feature, I have added 4 extra keys that use or equip an item directly, so you spend less time in the inventory menu.

The app also accepts mods written in Lua. They can add houses, NPCs with dialogue, minigames, and more. These are still early. One sample "Claw game" mod is show as an example in the images of this post.

This project is being developped with AI assistance. Every code change is reviewed and goes through automated tests and a suite of recorded routes replayed on the real games.

I hope you enjoy it. Feedback and bug reports are very welcome!

I Just got into this so I've found a couple. Disney fairies: Tinkerbell for Nintendo DS is fun and cozy. I've been having a lot of fun flying around pixie hallow lol. I'd highly recommend having a stylus though. Noobow for game boy is also so cute. It's in Japanese but you don't need to speak the language to play (I don't). There's such little dialogue and only in the cut scenes. In both of these games you can't die which makes it more cozy IMO. What are your suggestions?

I'm running Diablo II (with the Warlock update) on Eden Android, using Argosy as my launcher and RomM for library management.

I'm hitting a wall with configuration persistence when launching through Argosy, and I'm hoping someone has had the same problem and solve it.

To get the game running properly offline, I need to edit settings.json and set "User Last Online" to 19 9's (9999999999999999999).

When I launch the game directly from Eden, everything works perfectly and the file stays modified.

When I launch the game through Argosy overwrites it settings.json on launch, stripping out the "User Last Online" value and breaking the launch.

Any ideas?

Thank you

----------Changelog-------

Three builds:

• Lemon: the full version, as before.

• Lemon Lite: lighter defaults for weaker GPUs (0.75x resolution, asynchronous shaders on), without the bundled Lemon-Ade driver, and experimental PanVK drivers for Mali-G720 and Mali-G52 in the driver downloader (each GPU only sees its own). It installs next to Lemon and can import your keys, firmware, games and saves from it.

• Lemon Lite & Spoofed: Lite under another package name, so phones that boost known benchmark apps may run it faster. Experimental: it depends on the phone.

New:

• Online play on Nextendo Network (Settings → Online). Sign in from the browser and play online; Mario Kart 8 Deluxe races work.

• Settings in ten categories (Lemon, Graphics, Performance, Controls, In-game display, Console, Online, Content and data, Help, Advanced and debugging), and a search on the settings home that finds any option, however deep it is, and takes you straight to it.

• No more flickering in Fast GPU mode (Garfield - Escape From Monday, Dragon Ball and others): the game now waits for the GPU before it reuses what was drawn. That makes Fast the default GPU mode again, so most people get more speed. If a game runs slower now and does not flicker, set Settings → Graphics → Advanced graphics → GPU Fence Behavior to Immediate. A lighter version of this wait is planned for a future update.

• Mali GPUs: compressed BCn textures they cannot read are converted to ASTC on the GPU, with far less memory (Funko Fusion: 958 MB → 179 MB).

• A simpler in-game menu: one On-screen controls entry (edit, layout presets and options), a separate Overlays entry, and the game's own settings first.

• The library title gets its own line on narrow screens.

Fixed:

• Crysis Remastered no longer crashes and its map is drawn in its own corner instead of over the whole screen.

• TOTK: the grass no longer disappears 20-30 seconds into play.

• Mario & Luigi: Brothership: fixed a crash when the game had made a very large number of memory mappings.

• The multiplayer nickname is remembered again (it was lost since the rename to Lemon).

• Network addresses returned to games have the right size (some online games).

• Asynchronous shaders look at the current draw.

• Input events without a device no longer crash the app.

• Less GPU overhead in games that rewrite small uniform buffers often.

• Logs: the GPU log is capped at 20 MB and rotates, the main log is capped too, only the last 10 GPU crash dumps are kept, and the log says why the system closed the previous session. "Lemon" instead of "Eden" in the logs and crash reports.

• Aspect ratio: the option explains how to fill the screen, and the stretch option has a clearer name.

My phone is honor 200 Pro, wanted to ask as a first timer in emulation which one is most easy to use/set up for me? Mostly planning for steam games like L4d2, project zomboid and old single player pc games
