New Yuzu (Switch Emulator) Update Runs Mario Odyssey at Full Speed

[jediyoshi]

Yuzu up to this point had an issue with its audio implementation causing game performance to stutter pretty regularly. Now that asynchronous audio has been added, those performance issues are gone and it largely runs at full speed now. So far it's currently only available through Yuzu's paid early access builds, but I'd guess it'd be out to the public within the week.

There is a workaround for the public versions of Yuzu. Someone made a mod to disable the audio in the game altogether which basically gives the same performance benefit. That mod is available on their github wiki https://github.com/yuzu-emu/yuzu/wiki/Switch-Mods

Between the record sales and the record piracy, the Switch is feeling more like the DS everyday.

What resolution is it running at while doing 60fps?

There's no kind of resolution scaling in Yuzu currently, so it's being run at native docked resolutions.

 

[Dest]

That's awesome. I really hope this starts the trend of getting emulators up and working earlier in consoles life cycles.

 

[oni-link]

Pretty crazy how fast things are moving

 

[wwm0nkey]

Impressive progress. Won't use it till FE TH works and with res scaling so I can dump my copy though.

Hacking does not equal piracy, and any statement that it is is tiring.

This reminds me of when newly released NEO GEO games were emulated perfectly on release year. I don't like it.

 

[BasilZero]

It's amazing how fast emulation of Nintendo consoles goes

Wish Xbox and PlayStation were as quick

This is really cool.

They don't have Vulkan support like Cemu yet right?

Meh, people are too precious about this. I'm comfortable with what piracy is and the advantages that come with it.

Dynamic 900p then. That's very impressive.

 

[Jazzem]

Part (though certainly not all) of my desire for a Switch Pro style upgrade is being able to homebrew my original Switch, rip all my games and try this out. Amazing progress :'D

Click to shrink...

True. Emulation isn't piracy per se but I guarantee that the majority of emulator users pirate the games they emulate.

The dream of replaying XC2 at 1440p+ is getting closer and closer every day, maybe in 2021-2022.

But this is about emulation and not piracy.

The video was made with a mod to disable the dynamic resolution switching and keep it fixed. Traditionally, performance hardly takes a hit from upping resolutions in emulators.

 

[Yogi]

Wow, that's ridiculously quick. Borderline too quick :P

 

[Arkaign]

When resolution is unlocked, this will be the ultimate way to experience Switch titles for myself, I like many Switch games but am not a fan of the hardware at all, and have 0% interest in handheld gaming these days. I can just buy carts and rip them to PC, support good devs and play it the way I want to.

Will definitely have to hold onto the OG Switch though, unless someone figures out a better way to rip the games for emulation.

Piracy on the DS had nothing to do with Emulation? Hope you have a source on the record piracy on the Switch...

 

[Nooblet]

Astral Chains with proper resolution and maybe even unlocked framerate will be amazing.

 

[Firebricks]

I randomly tried Mario Odyssey on Yuzu this morning and was shocked to see 60FPS intermittently flash on the counter. That's pretty darn amazing.

Looks really cool :)

What? I'm saying you have no claim Switch is experiencing "record piracy" and there was a TON of piracy on the DS. An emulator being able to run an intensive game at normal framerate is incomparable to that

 

[Monster Zero]

When this can play Xenoblade 2 in 4K I will be impressed. Hopefully that can happen before the Switch 2 releases.

What kind of rig do you need for this performance?

 

[EddyLovesTunaRolls]

The amount of people that try to bait people into admitting to being pirates in these types of threads is hilarious.

What is this the spanish inquisition?!

I'm not 100% sure but i think you need a hack Switch to dump a game.

Edit: The future will be great when we will be able to run game on better and stable resolution.

I simply do not buy for a second you are going to buy games and rip them so you can play them on a computer.

As a switch owner and a Mario Odyssey owner, I welcome this. The switch will come and go, but PC will stay. I look forward to being able to play the game in higher resolutions one day, and without the awful forced waggle.

High demand + underpowered systems seems to be ideal for people who do emulation

True, true. It's a good thing there were no LCD screens or PC arcade sticks back then. If arcades had not died shortly after, I wonder how things would've worked out.

Nope. I just find it suspicious when someone says they hate a specific hardware and won't support it, but loves the games and will play them when they can be "enhanced". It reeks of bullshit. Especially considering even if the games emulate well, they are most likely not running accurately.

If he is being legitimate..saying he's going to buy games and rip them..fine...he's in the minority. A large number of folks are not going to do that.
