[SOLVED] Theoretically, how good of a PC do you need to emulate Switch? (hexbear.net)

Let's say, hypothetically, that I wanted to play Sonic Superstars but I consider the price tag of 90 fucking Australian dollaridoos to be highway robbery.

How good is Switch emulation right now? Do I need a good PC or will my mid-range potato be good enough?

In this purely hypothetical situation, I don't want to mod my Switch because I can't be bothered with the hassle of worrying about updates or the internet bricking it.

P.S. Sega is such a shitty company (the higher-ups, not the based workers that unionized). They've been getting super greedy as shit the past few years with their pricing and day one DLC.

I have been playing switch games on my laptop for the last couple years bc fuck giving Nintendo money lol

I use mullvad as a vpn and Usually find torrents of games on 1337x.to

Usually their torrents come with yuzu and/or ryujinx preconfigured with the files they need to run that you usually get elsewhere on the internet bc apparently that’s the legal loop hole the devs of those emulators use to keep shit legal I guess

Played through the paper Mario game like that and I just got super Mario wonder like three hours ago.
