I just bought Mario RPG at a whopping CAD$90 and it’s got pretty bad slowdown. I only ever play my Switch undocked and performance is decent but not spectacular. Everything is also so aliased and jagged. I kinda feel ripped off after buying a full price Switch game.

It made me reconsider my stance on emulation because the Deck can probably run it better. I’ve never been into emulating because I like the ritual of changing discs/cartridges (kind of why playing vinyl is special to me, it ritualizes music and makes it a “thing” instead of something in the background).

But I have a Switch and 20 some odd games that I could probably sell and buy two new Decks with the proceeds.

To those who emulate Switch on Deck, what’s your experience like?

    Sell it before new switch comes out. Don’t rely on switch emulation on Deck though, it’s hit and miss. There are so many games for PC though…
