Hello, I see that no one answers the questions. It seems that they didn't answer my question either, but I'll answer you :wink: This is the most up-to-date emulator now... Yuzu and Ryujinx are discontinued, and Citron is still stuck. However, the emulation depends heavily on the game, so I checked out this Sudachi emulator, which now shows better stability on Windows.
It's possible that more emulators will come out later because there are many versions for Switch.

I didnt know about this emulator. Only yuzu and ryujinx. But page is gone. Its still have updates?
 
Thank you very much <3 I will try new emu. Seems i missed a lot. I even didnt know there is is vita emu.
The vita emulator is considerably weaker than Switch ones. It can still run many visual novel titles if they are pure visual novels i.e text and pngs, but anything with a bit of gameplay might struggle.

Not many ppl are interested in it but there's a compatibility list here: https://www.anime-sharing.com/threads/otome-games-for-playstation-vita-using-emulator.1080268/
You can also go to the dev's Github to leave a report if you have different testing results.
 
Switch emulators like EDEN, Citron, Ryujinx, and others offer many choices. Even if your target game runs sluggishly on one, you can switch to another... This flexibility is something I can only be grateful for to all the developers.

The tough part with Vita emulators is that Vita3K is currently the only viable option.

Hi! So, the Switch emulator is working okay with visual novels? I'm asking because I'm a bit out of the loop.I stopped following emulators about 4-5 years ago, but back when I did, they were pretty bad for visual novels, It worked in a game like Zelda, but it was very buggy in a visual novel. Freezing issues, saving problems, losing all progress, buggy audio, the screen suddenly going black, letters disappearing – it wasn't good.

Hello. Thanks for your reply.
I mainly use EDEN on the Switch.
I don't play a huge number of games, but so far, I haven't encountered any games with critical issues.

The only time I've had to switch from EDEN to Citron was when I couldn't use a feature like rewinding to a branching point in *Prisoner of Palma*.
That was the only feature that didn't work; I was able to save and load normally, and I was able to reach the ending.

I've never experienced any issues where the text disappears or the screen goes completely black.

Another point of concern is the time it takes to launch the game.
Depending on the game, some take anywhere from 10 to 20 seconds to launch.
At first, I waited with bated breath, wondering, "Will it actually launch?"
