Thanks to @frangar recent work to get vitaGL integrated in RetroArch, I finally took the bait to port Mupen64Plus to Vita (which is something I wanted to do since a long time). Steady progresses with @m4xwdev help. Dynarec working, GPU bottlenecking, rn: youtube.com/watch?v=YROsjIlQ…

Yeah, I'm working on a Quake II video right now! The new version is really interesting. It's faithful to the original design but has a ton of improvements. The new episode is insane too. It also doesn't have the movement interpolation issues of Quake 1's re-release.

So, Chromium will get HW video acceleration in the next L4T Switch release. After the last tweaks on my hw codec, I can say the results are exceeding expectations. It can be used at last for web media consumption also. Ofc that will benefit every Tegra device. Soon..

Over the past month Alex here at @newaetech has been adding what might be a pretty crazy feature to our ChipWhisperer microcontroller - 'FTDI MPSSE emulation mode' which gives you JTAG (and hopefully also SWD) via stock OpenOCD. github.com/newaetech/chipwhi…

In about two hours, @dark1x and @PC98_Audi will be hosting a livestream with @evercaderetro to play and discuss the Evercade VS - a nicely designed console that plays a wide range of games on cartridge. We'll be joined by one of the emulation engineers @m4xwdev as well!

Exactly 3 years ago, the so called hwinit for Switch was released! (Now called BDK, short for Bootloader Development Kit) What a ride! Here's to the future🎉

Since we keep seeing this narrative being pushed, we feel the need to set the record straight on this to avoid misunderstandings and FUD - "Setting the record straight on cores and their ‘up-to-date’ status" - libretro.com/index.php/setti…
