![]() In addition to the features standard on the RetroArch, the Switch version includes touchscreen support and even peer-to-peer multiplayer. ![]() “Seeing a fully featured RetroArch on the Switch shows how much it’s capable of.” “For instance, the developer of PPSSPP (PSP emulator) is considering porting it to the Switch-people realise that it’s a great console, a great platform and easy to port software to,” natinusala said. They explained that the homebrew scene on Switch is progressing so quickly in part due to its developer tools and how easy they make it to port existing software to the platform. “The RetroArch release on Switch is the biggest release RetroArch has ever seen in a week,” a homebrew developer, who goes by natinusala and worked on RetroArch, told Kotaku in an email. While originally popular on hacked PSPs, Vitas, and Raspberry Pis, the fact that RetroArch now works on hacked Switches opens up a whole new frontier. In practice it’s very similar to the explorer bars on the PS3 and PSP homescreens, just filled with retro emulators and whatever games people stock them with. Once it’s running, its appeal comes from an interface that’s easy to navigate. There are a lot of options to calibrate, in part because of everything it includes, both in terms of the different emulators it supports and all of the available settings. RetroArch isn’t the simplest homebrew program to set up. Several updates later, today the people behind it released the latest version, which can run on hacked Nintendo Switches.
