ProsperoEden emulator brings Switch games to jailbroken PS5s

A developer released an updated build of ProsperoEden, an alpha emulator ported from Eden (itself derived from Yuzu) that runs Nintendo Switch games natively on jailbroken PlayStation 5 consoles. User reports on GitHub cite 60fps in Cuphead and Hollow Knight, and 40-50fps in titles like Horizon Chase Turbo, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, and Metroid Dread. The update improves OpenGL rendering, game loading, and adds per-game handheld or docked mode plus DualSense controller support.

ProsperoEden emulator brings Switch games to jailbroken PS5 consoles

A new alpha-stage project called ProsperoEden ports the open-source Eden Nintendo Switch emulator to jailbroken PS5 consoles, according to a report from VideoCardz. Testing shows games like Cuphead, Metroid Dread, Hollow Knight and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe running at playable frame rates, while titles such as Breath of the Wild are unplayable and Animal Crossing: New Horizons runs poorly at around 15 FPS.

Suyu Switch emulator gains recompiler mode, then shuts down and is forked anew

Suyu, a successor to the Yuzu emulator that Nintendo sued out of existence, released what its developers called a final version featuring a new recompiler mode that translates Switch game code directly into native x86-64 binaries for faster PC performance. Days after the team archived the project's repository and halted development, a new group forked the code under a fresh version scheme to keep the emulator alive. Separately, another developer built Wine-NX, a tool that runs older Windows PC games on Switch hardware.
