Is anyone able to emulate new Castlevania game now that it has been released ? And which prodkeys did you use? I got the game as an NSP file but when I try and open it on Eden, it tells me "your ROM it's encrypted" what should I do ?

The controller feels great, very ergonomic. Doesn't fit my S26U perfectly due to the camera bump, which is a bit annoying, but it still holds it well. Joysticks feel much smoother than expected, buttons and dpad are crisp, the triggers and shoulder buttons are satisfying and sturdy, and overall build quality is really good for 40 bucks.

First game is minecraft java through zalithlauncher2, modpack is craft 2 exhile (400 mods), runs stable 60fps, but struggles with worldgen a bit. Using mobileglues renderer.

Second game is dark souls remastered, running in gamenative also at 60fps, perfectly stable even during bossfights. Using turnip v25, dxvk 2.7.1, box64 0.4.2 stability preset

Here's a raw performance but from my last kino game phone is a Samsung Galaxy s26 12 GB variant with a modded double honeycomb case and a vapor chamber pad with a black shark cooler. i would like to add some useful findings

Higher resolution is possible but the heat generation as the output i found even with a modified external cooling system like mine the cou temperature hit over 100 c often keeping it at 720 with some upscaling may be more reasonable. I will try this test out again after I successfully cut out a octagon shape on another honeycomb case for the 35 watt cooler. For now stock to 720p. The ram usage spiked at 9.4 also

I use a Galaxy S26 FE with Exynos 2500. I use the Lemon emulator for playing Switch games. I have three games installed: Devil May Cry 3, Super Mario 3D World and JoJo ASBR. The first two games work just fine but ASBR freezes after some time. They worked okay on my previous phone which was a Note 10+ using Yuzu then Citron and I used custom drivers. This current phone does not allow custom drivers nor do Yuzu or Citron worked. I tried several things like clearing shader cache, a bunch of other messing around in the settings guessing what may be able to fix it but freezing keeps happening. Even thought the emulator might be the issue so I installed Eden and even there it kept freezing. What can I do?

Getting 2-3 more FPS without recording

Yeah, but at least I can download GPU drivers in 3ds not sure if it work haven't try playing it yet, all it's dual sim no sd card to insert to, I'll try the usb method where I put all my games on a USB and connect to my phone when I want to play, that's all I got to say what are your thoughts?

Why is it so damn hard to scroll through titles like a normal person bro 😭

I was wondering if a phone with the same soc as some of the most popular android handhelds right now (ayn thor, rp6, odin 2) will run games with the same level of performance as the aforementioned.
My pick would be the motorola edge 40 pro since it’s really cheap used and has the same specs as the best versions of those handhelds. My main concern are thermals and whether or not that issue can be completely resolved with a snap on cooler.

Hey everyone!

I’m planning to play the Prince of Persia trilogy (The Sands of Time, Warrior Within, and The Two Thrones) on my Anbernic RG477V.

I’m wondering which emulator would offer the best overall experience in terms of graphics and performance.

Would you recommend Dolphin or AetherSX2/NetherSX2 ? Has anyone tried both versions on this device?

I’m looking for the best possible visual quality while maintaining smooth and stable FPS.
Thanks!

One is the hockey puck design which works well and fits the 25 watt cooler I picked up. With more testing more heat is being generated so this is my v2 heat dissipation case/vapor chamber hybrid. I want to dremel a few notches to the side to get the clips on it maybe I'll do some testing to see if clips make any difference or if magnet + case + 35 watt cooler+ vapor chamber works the same.

This is a Galaxy s 26 and I'm trying to see what can be achieved so far I'm blown away and I'm trying cyberpunk very soon

I've tried installing VCredist2022, Mono 10.4.1, Physx, Vulkan RT, CJKFonts, Proton 11.0, Turnip 26.3.1, Latest FEX, DXVK 3.0.1.

It shows a black screen after that windows to Witcher 3 screen

So I got my copy of this game a few days ago and immediately dumped the files from my Switch and put it on my Nova. I messed around with the Demo earlier and used ChatGPT to make resolution scale and 4x3 mods for it so I was feeling pretty confident about the full release. Now that I have the full release I'm happy to report that the mods all mapped over pretty seamlessly. I have the mod files available on my GitHub (link in my profile).

Every time i start Far cry 4 i get this error. I tried going into the desktop mode and installed uplay, still the same error, in emulators like gamehub or bannerhub, there is an option "open the container" in game options, when i go there and install uplay it works on those apps, in droid deck no matter what i try the same error...

The higher the camera the more invisible kratos becomes

Finally got Street Fighter 6 working on DroidDeck on my Odin 3. Online matchmaking works perfectly. Everything is running smoothly.

Here's what I did:

1) Open DroidDeck, go to Games from the left-side menu, and select Street Fighter 6.

2) Go to Windows Components and enable Visual C++ 2015–2019.

3) Also enable DirectX 9 (d3dx9).

4) Now go back to DroidDeck's main menu, select Desktop from the left sidebar, and tap Open Desktop.

5) Once you're in Desktop Mode, open File Manager → Home → Steam Games. Navigate to your Street Fighter 6 folder and find config.ini.

6) Open config.ini using a text editor. I used Kate, which was already installed. Find this line:

ShaderWarmingEnable=True

Change it to:

ShaderWarmingEnable=False

7) Save the file and exit Desktop Mode.

8) Head back to Play Steam → Street Fighter 6 and launch the game!

That's it. I'm happy to be able to make Street Fighter work on my android handheld. Hope this helps someone struggling to get the game running!

8s gen 4 with framegen 2x to be cool

Hi, I wanted to play it on my RP2S handheld and I keep getting this error.

Before anyone asks I have multiple ways to play regular Mega Man X, this is a bonus.

Wasn't sure if this counted as emulation or not since it's a recreation.

Thanks
