Feature Request

New Emulator

Elaborate on the feature you would like to see added to EmuDeck.

Could Trifoce/libretro triforce core be added to EmuDeck? The build is hard to get working, old code See also: https://gitlab.com/es-de/emulationstation-de/-/blob/stable-3.0/resources/systems/linux/es_find_rules.xml?ref_type=heads#L918

I tried this app image, but it needs some libraries (tested on latest PopOS!):

Does this feature work on the Steam Deck?

Not sure.

Dolphin wiki itself says zero games are playable so this is likely not possible: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Triforce

Interesting. I wonder how/why Botacera Linux still has it and uses it. Will have to test their version.

There is a fork of dolphin which was made for triforce and still works. It was never merged into the main emulator for whatever reason.

That emulator does work on the deck. Someone posted about it on the discord a long while back. They had to modify the app image to get it to function though.
