!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

Emulators are like a hydra.

Go ahead and take one down. There's 100,000 still left to choose from, with a million more well on the way.

And the ones I've already got still work juuuuuust fine.

There were 2 viable switch emulators, Yuzu and Ryijinx. Nintendo has managed to stop development of both. Yes, you can still get them from other sources, but the original team that worked on the software is now fractured and threatened. Too bad for Nintendo that both Ryujinx and Yuzu were already good enough to play most games with minor issues on reasonable hardware.

Yeah, release groups are still packaging ryujinx with new switch games, it's just that good that it still works with games released after it went under.
