They manage to load Dolphin on the Nintendo Switch and it works fine

They manage to run the Dolphin emulator on the Nintendo Switch without problems, although it is not yet available, but everything indicates that it will be in a short time, when the framerate of the games improves.

A few weeks ago the total hack of the Nintendo Switch was leaked due to a security hole in the hardware used that is impossible to patch. When this fact was announced, logically, it was possible to think that it came from emulators, it would be a matter of time. That tense wait is over and the first valid emulator is Dolphin, which is now available and functional. Dolphin is one of the most prestigious emulators and known above all for emulating the games of the Wii and the GameCube, offering even better graphics and resolutions.

Now they have announced full compatibility with the Nintendo Switch and all thanks to Delroth, one of the greatest experts in terms of development and implementation of emulators and reverse engineering. Right now this emulator is in a fairly initial phase of development, but right now it allows you to run The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, which, for now, is only capable of running between 20-25FPS, staying quite far from the target of the 30FPS. This frame rate is quite low and does not allow an optimal gaming experience, but it will be a matter of time before it is solved.

We are facing the first phase of development, so it is only a matter of time that Dolphin in a quality version for the Nintendo Switch is operational. They continue working on the development and optimization of this emulator. We must also highlight that the image was taken on February 17, so an improvement in the optimization of the emulator from that moment would be normal.

Nintendo is helpless against this and is even planning to release an update to the Switch without the security hole that allows loading emulator and even Linux, without major complications, but all consoles on the market are easily hackable.
