    This works extremely well so far. Emulation is even pretty well with retro arch that has a bunch of cores ported (including dolphin for Wii/gc and pcsx2), pcsx3, and a switch emulator that all still need work but can run games

    Loading games is simple although the compressed fpkg format is not yet supported. It supposedly is already done privately but the devs are waiting on Sony to patch the bug related to it before release. Downloading games is miserable too, torrents are hard to find and a lot of them are hosted on download sites. Nothing like downloading 100gb from a sketchy site that’s capped at 100mbit, but hopefully that expands a bit now that basically every ps5 that wasn’t updated in the past week is moddable

    It will be interesting to see what drops after gta6. As of right now the entire library can run as long as you’re on 13.60 but before this there were some games with issues because back porting games to lower firmware is a bit messy. Pretty sure that’s why the one dev who exited the scene when the hypervisor exploit was reported was holding on to it, they wanted to time it for gta6 release. There’s rumors that there is another hyper visor exploit that isn’t released though
