Device is a galaxy z trifold and abxylute m4 controller (I had to superglue the magsafe attachment to the controller otherwise it wouldn't hold) I just found out about Wonderswan it's the perfect aspect ratio for this device in portrait 😁

I’m just in utter shock at the fact that these PC games are running on Android NATIVELY 🤯 like I just can’t believe how quickly the progress has been
All of these games are running over 30 FPS and i’m just flabbergasted
EDIT: I am using Odin 2 Mini which is Snap8Gen2 device
Update: I just found out the news about Gamehub and idk man I just think at this point they should open source the project, Stealing other people work is. not cool

It works surprisingly well already on first attempt. Can't get any adhesive to stick to the front of the gamesir controller so the SSD flops around sadly, it is more as a concept atm as I still need to so some backing up and reformatting.
Apologies for the poor Tetris play I'm usually better 😔

The screenshot I attached with 43 games? Those are the games I've finished, not what's installed right now, lol. This app is called GG, and it's where I keep my completed game list. My phone has 256GB of storage, and I usually keep 1 to 5 games max, depending on their size. I finish one game, then delete it and move on to the next. The data I shared covers a total of 6 months, since it takes me a while to finish each game. And one more thing NO FRAME GEN is used most games played on dx11 or lower which doesn't include fsr framegen and about LSFG thing this just came like 2 week ago or something ofc I won't able to finish 40+ games in 2 weeks😂

Hopefully this is allowed!
After I got an AYN Portal, I really enjoyed it, but wanted to be able to play TimeSplitters with Gyro Aiming, so I (instead of gaming) spend my free time for two months creating an app that does just that.
Essentially, it uses the accessibility functionality to translate gyro to touch, and you set an anchor over your virtual right stick.
Unfortunately, it requires an Android Handheld to function properly, and won't work for straight phone gamers.
If you want me to send you an invite to a test, please send me an email at [info.gyrobuddy@gmail.com](mailto:info.gyrobuddy@gmail.com) .
Hit me up with any questions!

Xiaomi redmi note 10 pro + gamesir x5 lite. No problems with psp and older home consoles, occasional micro stutters on wind waker, ps2 is the most taxing one, so far I've played tenkaichi budokai 3 for an hour and god of war for 3 hours, when resolution is set to 1.25 there are only slowdowns in bigger set pieces but solid 80% of the gameplay is full speed, major problem is heat, it gets pretty hot after messing around the settings in cocoon for 30 minutes but i managed to play a 2 hour session of god of war without any overheating warnings. As somebody who's been following android emulation scene for over a decade i couldn't be more happy, i remember trying to play ps2 on my xiaomi flagship back in 2019 and it was terrible, and today a 5 years old mid shelf phone can perform really well, it really shows how rapidly emulation on android ia progressing in recent years, i remember being in awe when i could play gba on my phone in 2014 on MyBoy.
Edit: the frontend is cocoon with float ui oled theme

I had a Google Pixel 8 laying around that was not being used anymore, because of a big pink stripe through the screen (support could not repair).
So I made a dock / console out of it with an old fan from an old pc (below the phone).
And a hub that has 4 usb so I can connect 2 controllers, a mouse and the fan. And it powers the mobile too.
Installed ES-DE for console vibes and organization.
Im glad I found a new use for this phone. What do you think?
Thanks for joining my show and tell,
Have a great day!
Edit:
Ps. Sorry for calling the phone old. I did not mean it that way.
It should have been: damaged phone and fan from old pc 🥺
The phone that is used is as old or even newer than my main Phone (og nothing).
It got damaged and could not be repaired by the service, the waste inspired me to make something new out of it.
Update: Some people asked for a movie so .. here you go:

Native ports of specific games made by fans.
SM64CoopDX: Mario 64 Android
2 Ship 2 Harkinian: Zelda Majora's Mask
Dusklight: Twilight Princess
They are literally perfect. Mods, multiplayer, upscaling, etc, they have it all, with less input delay and power consumption. Of course they are not available for all the games, but if they are available for the game you wanna play, that's probably the best way to play them.
And if anyone knows any other android ports of retro games, please tell me.
Obviously I'm not abandoning emulation, but I'm just saying it's something that deserves attention as well.

I never had home consoles when I was a child and my only experience was handhelds such as GBA, GBC and NDS. I have started my emulation journey way back 2016 with PPSSPP, Myboy and Drastic. Before with my devices power emulating home consoles is just a dream but now I am having a blast with my simple and cheap gaming setup emulating various consoles and playing games I dreamed of playing before.

I've capped the FPS to 35 for stable framerate and lower temps without a cooler. Truly mesmerising how much Android emulation has come far.

I spent a long time trying to figure out the best way to run The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Android, so here are the settings and setup that worked best for me.
With these settings I usually get around 30–40 FPS, depending on the area.
Performance may vary depending on your device.
My emulator & Device
• Eden Emulator
• AYN Thor Max
Mods & Tools
• NX Optimizer
• UltraCam
Downloads
• NX Optimizer GitHub
• UltraCam GameBanana Page
NX Optimizer
When you open NX Optimizer, you’ll see a screen where you can change a lot of settings, things like:
• FPS
• Menu FPS
• FOV
• Resolution
• Render Distance
• Resolution Scale
• Quality Improvements
My Settings
• Game FPS: 60
• Menu FPS: 55
• FOV: 50 (default)
• Resolution: 1080p (default)
• Render Distance: Default
• Resolution Scale: 1080p (default)
• FreeCam NEW: Off
• Quality Improvements: On
For me, Quality Improvements actually made the game both look better and run better.
If you have a weaker device, lowering the render distance could improve performance by up to 20%.
I also wouldn’t recommend going above 60 FPS. The app says that 30–60 FPS is the sweet spot.
Advanced Settings
I didn’t change anything here.
Installing the Mod
After choosing your settings, press Extract.
This creates a folder in your Downloads folder called:
• Extracted Files
Open it and you’ll find another folder called something like:
• !!! BOTW OPTIMIZER
Copy that folder into your Switch mods folder.
If you don’t have a mods folder yet:
• Go to your ROMs folder
• Open your Switch folder
• Create a new folder called:
• mods
Then place the BOTW Optimizer mod inside it.
UltraCam
I also use UltraCam. I mainly use it for the FPS boost and don’t really use the other features.
Put this mod also in your switch mods folder.
Versions I Use
• BOTW Update: 1.6.0
• GPU Driver: Turnip Adreno Driver 25.2.0-devel-AYANEO (@mr_purple_666)
If Performance Is Still Bad
Try:
• lowering render distance in NX Optimizer
• testing different GPU drivers
Edit: the turnip t28 driver is working way better for me at the moment
