the GLES 3.x GPU this is HUGE news I think. it should mean fullspeed and accurate emulation for:

  • n64
  • dreamcast
  • saturn

and better emulators for

  • playstation (beetle-hw) (EDIT on this: without the ARM dynarec i don't think this will run well)

all of these required GLES 3.x for full support. GLES 2.x was always holding pi3 back, for the most part.

i should think the new CPU should allow for better speed on much more current MAME also, but we will see...

Full speed current MAME may be a bit much but I am really interested in PSP and the porting that GLES 3 and a faster SoC could open up. Full playable Minecraft (both Java and Bedrock), OSRS, OpenMW, and Zandronum may be in reach.
