You Can Now Emulate DS Games On Nintendo Switch

Following the arrival of GameCube and Wii emulator Dolphin on Nintendo Switch, hackers and coders have made yet another breakthrough in the homebrew scene.

DeSmuME-NX, the Nintendo Switch version of Nintendo DS emulator DeSmuME, was released on GitHub this week. It allows players to enjoy Nintendo DS games on the Switch itself. At this point, DeSuME-NX is more of a proof-of-concept as most emulated games are still running slowly (think 5 – 15 frames per second slow) on the system, but things are expected to improve over time.
