It’s an impressive accomplishment given Yuzu was only first able to play Super Mario Odyssey last July, and a year later it’s boasting performance stats that rival the actual Switch. But its worst performance is now actually better than the emulator’s previous best, and the same performance boost was seen with the Switch game Pokémon Let’s Go. YouTuber BSoD Gaming tried out the latest Yuzu release and was impressed to find that through most of Super Mario Odyssey, the emulator was able to spit out frames at 60 frames per second, with the frame rate only slightly dropping in some of the game’s more complex levels.
