Nintendo's upcoming Switch 2 console doesn't actually run the original Switch's games natively, as the two hardwares are incompatible.

      Was that emulator ever jailbroken to run other games? I thought it used some bespoke per-game config so it’s not as general as the Switch one appears to be. Nintendo compatibility list shows a very good coverage too.

        I’m not sure all ik is you can’t download ps3 games only stream them on ps4 due to different hardware

          Ah, and I was thinking of PS2 emulator they use for classics in PS+ :D

          Switch 2 backwards compatibility won’t be streaming-based, it runs locally.

            I misunderstood then…really hated how Sony did things where the PS3 really had no backwards compatibiliy with PS2 and PS4 couldn’t play Ps3 games.
