The Switch is beginning to turn into one of the best systems to play emulators and homebrew on, So far most of the emulators have been smooth with little hiccups here and there due to the power of the Switch.
If you grew up in the early 80s and 90s, then you would know that the arcades were the most advanced systems back then with mind-blowing graphics and the #1 hangout spot for after school kids. Developer Lantus is bringing us back to our quarter-eating arcade days with the port of the xbox360 Mame 0.72 emulator to the Nintendo Switch, code name Mame-NX 2.1!
The purpose of this emulator is to bring full-speed arcade games to the Nintendo Switch. Games like Mortal Kombat, Nba Hangtime, and ultimate MK are able to play full speed with audio. Arcade cores cps1,cps2, Konami and Midway have been tested and works well. So if you want to give this great emulator a shot, give it a go! Also, I included a list from the developer of which games it runs, if you tested other games let us know on Twitter @hackinformer.
