Yes. Next stupid question.

I’ve been playing using the latest forks setup on the Fitgirl torrents of Switch games. Started with The new Zelda and Unicorn Overlord, then grabbed some other games. The folder comes with a launcher to both emulators, I customized the whole thing to be my own Switch central, and updated the Ryujinx build with the last “official” one on the Internet Archive.

Other than that, this thread has good recommendations for followup projects to both. The megathread has places to download the games themselves individually.

Same thing happened to me a few years ago. My old laptop from 2013 is hardware incompatible with something in modern Windows10 and when it tried installing the late 2019 update it just died. Had to buy a new laptop to keep working.

Today, that same laptop is happily running Arch Linux. I’m still trying to decide what I’ll do with the main gaming PC.

In the modern age, we all need to be our own archivists, saving whatever we can from a perpetually burning Library of Alexandria. This is why pirates are a community, each one saves a little bit of history that matters to them, and then we share.

You sure it isn’t the finance and management guys leaving at 4pm and earlier while developers are expected to work past hours and even at home?

We all need to be our own archivists in this day and age. The internet isn’t forever, it’s a constantly burning Library of Alexandria. I’m glad you found your lost media again.
