Found smash/totk on fitgirl repacks but it uses yuzu which requires a switch. Not spending 300 on an ageing console atp, is there any workaround?

you can use yuzu without owning a switch if you pirate the keys lol.

Yuzu doesn't require a switch. You just need a switch it to dump decription keys but you can find them online pretty easily The file are called prod.key

In what way does yuzu require a Switch? That hasn't been my experience.

[–] AnagrammadiCodeina@feddit.it 2 points 1 year ago

Its the legal way

[–] Otome-chan@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

yuzu requires keys which you're supposed to officially dump from your own console. you can just pirate them.

just reading off their site: Prerequisites A hackable Nintendo Switch console (preferably a model that is vulnerable to the fusée-gelée exploit). Visit Is My Switch Patched? to check if your console is not patched. A microSD card with at least 32 GB of storage capacity. 64 GB or higher is recommended. A USB-C to USB-A or USB-C to USB-C cable to connect your Switch to your computer.

Fitgirl's repacks already contain the necessary files. These steps are unnecessary. There are also alternative ways of sourcing the files. :)

[–] will_iam90983402984@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

ok, thank you, can I also ask for the general idea of where to find these?

[–] Cevilia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you just want to play one game, Fitgirl's repacks are by far the easiest way, because she does all the setting-up for you. But if you want to play multiple games, you should be able to get them from the same places you get your NSPs. prod.keys and title.keys - I got mine from https://rentry.org/128bbkeys.

This prod site has everything you need besides the rom

[–] guyman@lemmy.world -4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's just something they say because they love Nintendo's dick in their mouth.

[–] will_iam90983402984@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

yeah, thought so, got banned off their discord for even hinting at the prospect of piracy smh

[–] harmonea@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They're just protecting themselves; Nintendo's legal team is infamously tenacious and expensive to defend against, so yuzu can't give them the slightest indication they support the real day-to-day use case of their software.

Wait so you have to pay for the keys?

[–] StoppedShow@lemmy.pt 2 points 1 year ago

If you want to play the breath of the wild, it will run much better on the Wii emulator - Cemu. Also super easy to setup and you can find prepackaged on fit girl.

[–] zekiz@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

You don't require a switch to use yuzu. You only require the keys and firmware which you also can get elsewhere.

[–] Omega_Jimes@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You can get yuzu from their website, and the bios files and game roms from the usual suspects/ your favorite places online.

ok, thank you. Only reason I've been asking is due to the fact that it takes over an hour to compile shaders on each boot so I thought I was missing something

[–] Meruten@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

Update your Yuzu application to the latest version. It stopped recompiling for me and simple just loaded the shaders on every boot of the game. Boot times into the game went from ~45s to 2s every time.

[–] CoffeeBlood91@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's pretty easy to do, especially on the steamdeck

[–] dustywinter@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

I want to support this. SteamDeck is amazing with enulation. Is it perfect? No! Occasional glitches and graphics issues, but a really handy and easy option.

[–] ngovancanbn@szmer.info 1 points 1 year ago

i think this site upload latest version can help you

[–] ngovancanbn@iusearchlinux.fyi 1 points 1 year ago

i think can help you this site update Yuzu Prod

[–] firmware@fanaticus.social 1 points 1 year ago

you may need the latest versions Yuzu

[–] b42@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You definitely can! I'm using Yuzu on Linux with an jurassic 1050Ti and it works perfectly. I basically play Mario Kart 8 and BotW (for now, TotK in the queue) and never touched an actual Switch in person (seriously! I'm Brazilian and these things are hell expensive here).

[–] will_iam90983402984@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

yeah I get that, 300+ for something you're using for maybe 2 games makes no sense

[–] Gush@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I don't want to spend 400 and more just to play miitopia 😭
