Ryujinx actually has a setting for users with less RAM called “Enable Texture Recompression” which will compress the Textures before storing them in RAM. This will reduce RAM usage at the cost of higher CPU usage, however to my knowledge Ryujinx doesnt use all of the CPU cores anyway so this shouldnt reduce Performance much / it would increase performance if RAM is the bottleneck I really like trying to emulate all kinds of systems on my Mac so please more Videos like this (maybe about ScummVM and/or DosBox-x)
Always love your emulation videos! Watching your videos is one big reason why I chose to get a MacBook. I have the M1 Pro and it does everything I need right now. However, I love seeing all the advancements that have come with the m3 chipset.
As another alternative, Retroarch is still being developed for macOS. It would be interesting to see a video catching up on the current state of Retroarch, showing how well it handles emulation, and checking in on how up to date its cores are compared to other emulation hosts.
Considering that emulation relies on the CPU not the GPU it's no surprise that Apple Silicon macs are great for emulation. Combine that with the high resolution screen you can add in a super high quality CRT filter for 5th gen and older games
Interesting that M3 base gets same performance as M3 max 40 core in cemu botw. I wonder if it just hits a cpu bottleneck that just doesn't care how many gpu cores there are. I actually get better performance with switch version of botw
do you know of a way to get a pressure sensitive Dual shock fully supported on mac os? Would like to play MGS2 and MGS3 with full control support. Any hints would be much appreciated. Thanks
Interesting thanks. I just got a new MBP and was curious what it could run. I've never really dabbled much previously with emulation on OSX, I have a hacked wii, mini consoles, Android tablet and half decent pc. This looks like a great way to play some Switch titles and likely get better performance (M3 Max 16 core CPU, 40 core GPU and 64GB RAM)
ngl i'm goo with these games. especially ps3, wiiu, switch playing on their native resolution at at least 30fps cause the screen isn't too big to notice pixels
I have an iMac base M1 and I never reached to the point of having to use swap while (emulator) gaming. The machine starts getting hot, slow and the fans get lousy way before it starts chugging swap memory. This shared memory marketing stunt is just marketing... 8GB RAM was a standard in 2014.

On the OpenEMU can you have it full screen? I've always been a Windows guy with various desktops and laptops over the years. I'm thinking about getting myself a Macbook Pro with an M3 Pro processor and want to connect it to my 65" 4k TV via the Macbook's HDMI output but i'm wanting to know if it's capable of running full screen. Some emulators can only be windowed meaning it can't take up the whole screen.
Google says yes. I’ve had a MacBook Pro for the last ten years and the green bubble at the top left of a window takes pretty much everything full screen
You might be able to specify a config for each of the cores, potentially by making a shell script to launch the core with certain flags (if OpenEmu doesn't give you an interface to do that itself). Some of them probably do allow higher resolution. I haven't tried it myself, but maybe someone can try and weigh in :)
It's been a few years since I last played with emulation, but is something like RetroArch to be recommended? Or are there downsides compared to using it on Windows?
Great video man! Congrats! Can you help me with your ryujinx settings to play TOTK? I have a m2 pro 19 gpu and my game keep stuck at 20 fps, I dint find any mod that help me to get 30 fps :(

One thing people always failed to mention about Wii emulation on the map, newer versions of macOS won’t let you pair a Wii Remote. It’s very annoying. Comes down to Apple requiring a certain level of security that the Wii Remote simply did not support. As far as I’m aware no one has figured out a way around this.
Hola, buenas tardes desde España. ¿Habria la posibilidad de que enseñaras de forma mas exhaustiva el emulador de Rpcs3 para Macbook? es que estoy pensando en adquirir un macbook y no se si cogerme el Pro o el Max. Muchas gracias de antemano
necesitas usar la wiki para que cualquier juego funcione. Sería difícil para él hacer un vídeo ya que cada juego tiene diferentes problemas en rpcs3. Sorry, my Spanish is not very good.
@@pianoplayer2147 Basically all of the emulators that have a Mac port and are regularly maintained have really good performance. So Ryujinx, Dolphin, Citra, PPSSPP and PCSX2 (there are more but these are very good examples)
it works great in terms of performance. you didn't notice any issues and get lower temperatures and battery life. suddenly emulation process hits hardware bottleneck earlier than you can reach full potential of it. so low power battery mode doesn't impact at fps (maybe frame time a little bit). at least on m2 pro
Just another reason Nintendo should just start doing PC/Mac ports already like Sony does. Not even asking for day in date, just something. They can't win against their futile war against emulators so might as well just start doing official releases so they can make some extra revenue and decentivize emulation
The main reason why the Switch was emulated so early was because the switch is pretty weak hardware wise. iPhone X is also faster than it in both CPU and GPU
@@crestofhonor2349 no it’s not really just the hardware, for example the Switch uses a lot of texture formats which no x86 platform natively supports and that causes a whole lot of problems even for powerful hardware. The main reason why the switch was emulated so fast was because the Tegra X1 (the chip inside the Switch) had already known vulnerabilities and thus the reverse engineering started almost immediately The fact that it was Nintendo’s next “big” console and the fact that they don’t do ports (as outlined in the main comment) unlike most games for Xbox and PS4 meant that there is also a way bigger demand for it.
I played Rogue Squadron at 1080p on my pre-m1 iPad Pro from 4 years ago flawlessly, so there must be a specific setting that you need to check! It should run just fine
That’s definitely a problem with your settings. Check your graphics backend, shader settings and internal resolution. If none of that is helping try to reset all the settings to the defaults and go from there
Guys, I love windows, but I hate the new ai thing. I’m wondering, if I save up for a m3 Mac, would it be worth it to use til college? I have one Apple device, a iPad 10 gen, but that’s it. I also do game dev, so I wonder if it’s good for that too. Edit: I forgot to ask, ram and the upgraded cpu are expensive, but is it worth it?
I tried to do Nintendo Switch emulation on the M2 15 inch but when i search games it takes me to fake pages and scam downloads either they can’t be downloaded anymore or pretty much got rid of the roms for the Nintendo switch games so i deleted it and was very useless
Depends on the game. In the games I personally play - it had less visual glitches (like lines on sprites / textures when upscaling) and better performance. But that was back when pcsx2 didn't have metal renderer. The sad thing about the aethersx2 is that people started harassing the dev and he stopped working on it, so right now it's an abandonware. I do still use it and works fine in my opinion.
@@krystiano.610 a lot of progress has been made since then. But yeah I know what happened with the dev. But I am not sure if he really received death threats as there was some speculation about the situation, and some people doubt it.

Please please show what TOTK looks like on a powerful M3 Max chip. I want to know if it's worth upgrading from my M1 Mac mini which can currently achieve roughly the same performance as the M3 base chip you showed here.
I tried an M3 Max with 30-core GPU last month for this purpose since no one else was benchmarking it. It does very well in the towns, averaging 30-40fps, but can't quite reach 60 anywhere, sticking to around 45-50 in the open world. Seemed a bit GPU bottlenecked so I imagine the 40 core GPU would do much better at 1080p/1440p. What I wanted to see was how it worked for 4k, which was not super well. 25-35 fps across the board, maybe 40 if you were lucky. But given that even with perfect GPU performance scaling from 30-40 cores it wouldn't touch 60 at 4k, I decided not to bother trying the higher end one out.
@@nathanross4036man can you tell me about the settings to reach 30 fps in TOTK? I have a m2 pro with 19 gpu but it keep stuck at 20 fps, and the gpu is not even close to 100% use
@@nathanross4036 I wonder if this is a result of under-optimisation by Ryujinx. I just can't fathom how a much more powerful machine than my M1 Mac mini with only 8 GPU cores could only achieve what seems like modest gains at 1080p/1440p with nearly 4x the GPU cores that are 2 generations ahead on Apple Silicon.
@@GRandoTube Yeah, I found it odd as well. Wouldn't be surprised if it was a Ryujinx limitation, that emulator has always seemed to have more overhead than Yuzu. Wish Yuzu was on Mac.
My custom 2020 build low power 450KW psu, Asrock X570 TB3, DDR4 64GB ram, RX 6600, 1TB ssd still wipes the floor with M1, M2, M3. Arm MacOS is ok for casual gaming only, but gets frighteningly hot when clam shell on external monitor playing Trek to Yomi
Emulation itself is the process of translating one to another and the emulation process can be very CPU intensive. It is not simply a case of just needing the same level of CPU, GPU and RAM as the emulated platform
Depends on your Display-size ideally its as close to your native screen-resolution as possible so probalby 2x in docked mode. For Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic Filtering you can just set it to the max (my M1 Max can handle that in most games). For the Scaling filter it really depends what Look you like or what game you play.
Games run very well. Thank you, but I have one problem. As soon as I exit full-screen mode, the emulator crashes. Is this a bug or is it due to a setting?@@Omega-cy6fs
The base model M3, really? I thought it's already well established that this version is fairly useless for any serious task because of its subpar RAM…it seems it can run older games, but this lousy RAM surely makes it a pain for newer games, emulated or not.
He says at the end that it struggles with some switch games because of the limited ram. So yes, if you want to do any gaming on Macs, best to get at least 16GB of ram, and more if you can.
i did try the emulator for their menu UI Runs nearly 90fps when is booting up and headed to 110fps that 50 fps more than PS3 was able to use Like i used an PS3 PRO where is able to push 110fps that more than the real one would

My custom 2020 build low power 450KW psu, Asrock X570 TB3, DDR4 64GB ram, RX 6600, 1TB ssd still wipes the floor with M1, M2, M3. Arm MacOS is ok for casual gaming only, but gets frighteningly hot when clam shell on external monitor playing Trek to Yomi
You are simply wrong
why are we questioning if a 2023/2024 machine can run emulators for devices built 20+ years ago?
Dudes running switch games my trolly friend
Emulation itself is the process of translating one to another and the emulation process can be very CPU intensive. It is not simply a case of just needing the same level of CPU, GPU and RAM as the emulated platform
What GPU settings for the Switch emulator are perfect for the M3 Max?
Depends on your Display-size ideally its as close to your native screen-resolution as possible so probalby 2x in docked mode. For Anti-Aliasing and Anisotropic Filtering you can just set it to the max (my M1 Max can handle that in most games). For the Scaling filter it really depends what Look you like or what game you play.
Games run very well. Thank you, but I have one problem. As soon as I exit full-screen mode, the emulator crashes. Is this a bug or is it due to a setting?@@Omega-cy6fs
@@stilu2k6 sounds more like a bug to me
Hi Andrew, I am new here, I wonder where can I get the games?

Thank you so much :) now what about Xbox emulators for Mac?
Xemu, Xenia, and CXBX aren't on MacOS. You'd have to use Crossover or a similar program to play them
@@crestofhonor2349ah, okay thank you for letting me know, I appreciate it :) hopefully they’ll have a Mac version in the future, at least for Xenia.
@@crestofhonor2349 There is an official Xemu Version for Mac however I never actually got it to run properly
@@crestofhonor2349xemu has Mac builds. Though it works better on intel based macs, it’s got issues with apple silicon
@@crestofhonor2349 You're wrong. XEMU is natively available on MacOS. It's a native binary too so no need for Rosetta.
please test helldivers2, tengo una mac pro con 8 ram y quiero comprarlo, please
te amo.
mac cant run helldivers 2
can you make a video to run a pc game on mac for free, like using whiskey
Dude you sound exactly like 2kilksphilip
The base model M3, really? I thought it's already well established that this version is fairly useless for any serious task because of its subpar RAM…it seems it can run older games, but this lousy RAM surely makes it a pain for newer games, emulated or not.
He says at the end that it struggles with some switch games because of the limited ram. So yes, if you want to do any gaming on Macs, best to get at least 16GB of ram, and more if you can.
It used to be games :)
Can i use ps4 controller as well?
Yes
@@chrisryan8894 thanks
can you play persona 5 ps3 on it?
So ps3 emulation is finally playable ?
i did try the emulator for their menu UI
Runs nearly 90fps when is booting up and headed to 110fps that 50 fps more than PS3 was able to use
Like i used an PS3 PRO where is able to push 110fps that more than the real one would
is this game not good enough?
bro is there any video turorial on downloading 3DS Emulator for iMac? THanks
Bro, yea, google
Dreamcast ignored as usual 🥲
Would love to get Last of Us working in any form on the Mac. RPCS3 runs it at about 3fps with all effects turned off and resolution lowered to potato
Which Mac is that?
Does the remaster run in Crossover?
(Asking coz I'd like to too, but I specifically want multiplayer, i.e. the PS3 version)
@@alexbowe2316 m2 air with 16gb ram. I can run every other ps3 game upsvaled and everything, but there's something special about the tech the game uses that's hard to emulate, as far as I can tell. Unless there's been some improvements in the last 6 months, that was when I last gave it a go
Lay of us works very well on the recent RPCS3, very smoothly. Follow the wiki directions for the settings.
@@alexbowe2316no
@@MrMeste That's great to hear! I'm trusting you! I'm going to test it out after work tomorrow!
The need for any Combo Cleaner or other bloatware is an absolute lie!
I always said that Nintendo makes the best PC games, now it looks like it also makes the best MacOS games😅
Aether2x2 doesn’t work anymore
Nintendo Switch is banned now :/
