ROG Ally Emulation - Xbox 360 / PS3 / Switch / Wii

The thing I’ve used my Steam Deck for more than anything thus far has been emulation. Being able to play basically any game from any console, especially on a handheld system, is just the best. The ROG Ally with it’s extra horsepower and Windows installed by default should mean it’s actually a better playing experience for those games that require a little more power, or in the Xbox 360 emulator’s case, requires Windows. In this video I want to walk you through the setup process, then give a handful of games a shot.

The thing about emulation is... That you have to tweak the settings to best fit your system... I have a desktop with an i9 13900k and an RTX 4070 and even I run into problems... I had to mess around with the settings until I found what worked best for me. And you also have to pay close attention to specific game tweaks and patches. I am sure that the ROG Ally can provide a far better experience with the right configuration. What I would truly like to see is somebody setting up the gyro controls for the ROG Ally on these emulators. Because on my desktop setting up gyro controls was fairly easy using the SDL configuration, for all my Playstation or Nintendo controllers, but as I do not have an Ally myself I do not know if its also that simple.

[@morid0]

That's very true, currently my steam deck performs better with some GameCube games even though is less powerful, sometimes software/settings makes a huge difference even if you have a hardware beast.

[@armandoamd1234]

How can we map the buttons on the rog ally for the ps3 emu?
do you have a video?

[@kuharoo3768]

Hey guy from my experience i recommend if you gonna set up a emulator download the latest shader pack of the game you gonna play on that emulator because it help to not get any stoter and get full fps from the emulator from the start

[@Can-O-Noodle]

Making your own shader pack will always be better than a downloaded own because of the system differences that every system has. Even systems withe the same specs can have manufacturering differences that change anything

[@robmalcolm8042]

So how has this been in terms of reliability compared to the steam deck? I know the deck is good because it’s Linux and custom os and support of course but this being windows and higher power I’m sure has a lot more better performance

[@kalmonsalmon1946]

More games supported on Windows, sure. Although that number is getting smaller. Regarding emulation,just about every emulator is available on Windows and Linux, and often on Mac as well, so not much of a difference there, performance depends way more on your hardware than on your OS of choice.

[@leokeo6871]

Im not too smart on the tech lingo but on my rog ally z1 (not Extreme) rpcs3 i cannot seem to get a game to run. It always crashes when i try and its hard to get back into it. When i do get it and as i hit play, then it gives me a message that says something like win with a bunch of zeros 😢

[@adamforant6044]

New to this. Where do you find these ROMs?

[@Dave51677]

you have to change settings in rpcsx3

[@Dadolphin]

Rpcs3*

[@Abranlumi]

I can’t get RSPC3 to consistently open. Any suggestions?

[@sonicmario57]

I am looking into getting an Ally as they are on sale right now on Amazon. I have a program on my pc that I use all the time when emulating called Lossless scaling. It will triple your framerate using frame generation.

[@AbhinavT18]

Can you please make a video on setup guide for “Top Spin 4” on this Asus Rog Ally

[@juanrivera7250]

This guy sounds like his tummy hurts

[@albert-sd7oz]

RIGHT he sounds like he's holding his stomach trying to get some words out before bolting to the toilet

[@borky1987]

🤣🤣🤣

[@biggwaynemckinney1727]

Hay I'm having problems installing rpcs3 can u help

[@hollyc5417]

why arent you specifying if you have the Ally with Z1 extreme processor or just the Z1.

[@exileisdope1352]

I cant seem to set it up to play from my rog ally without external controllers can anyone help?

[@markwrobel9558]

Xenia is so ass for me on the ally . Idk why it just crashes randomly . Like I played 40 mins of lollipop chainsaw and it ran smooth as butter and then just randomly crashed . Shit is so Annoying

[@Geo62]

very nice color ! it's vivid profil ?

[@Yusei255]

i assume Emudeck is now functional on windows.

[@X862go]

change settings in rpcsx3

[@samhawkes6597]

Switch emulation does take quite alot of messing around and even then it aint perfect. I think the switch is a step too far. Its taken me hours of combination checking to get that satisfactory and it still exhibits large dips and 25fps often.
Mario wonder ive got into an almost playable state but again the slow down as you move through a stage is still there.
I think switch is a step too far for the ally. But everything else is fine

[@kevinthorn9672]

How do we map the buttons on the rog for the switch emu?

[@ExecutionerDan]

Yuzu was dead easy for me. In settings just set input to Xbox controller. Search up videos on how to install yuzu games. Idk about ryujinx.

[@itsquiwi8780]

turn off cpu boost it really does nothing but make yo shit hot plus set your static gpu to 1200mhz and i was playing all switch games at 14watts 1080p with distance detail turned up tweak the ally a bit and you can get big gains!

[@robmalcolm8042]

Better than the deck you think?

[@main_tak_becus6689]

Where to change those settings?

[@samhawkes6597]

Ur not playing Zelda at 14w with cpu boost off. Dont lie

[@magster823]

can it emulate Metal gear solid 4 ?? Anyone tested it ?

[@thuggothic]

Absolutely
Make sure you get the Canary Patch
At 18 watt I can get 45 fps on it

[@jaotrx7163]

Bajo nut and bolts ultra l

[@ThatFinchGuy]

Patch it

[@itzdcx7991]

one of the worst pokemon game ever

[@tapatimondal1570]

No.. It's good.. You just don't appreciate it!!

[@dannyd4339]

Bro doesn't know what a 60fps patch is 💀

[@robmalcolm8042]

He doesn’t know that the gba generation of pokemon ran at 60fps on the map and in battle those are the fastest and smoothest pokemon games with black and white 1&2 coming very close but they are still slower cause of the map even tho the battles are very close in speed if not faster than the gba pokemon games.

[@dannyd4339]

@robmalcolm8042 yeah idk when we started prioritizing "pretty" graphics over smooth gameplay

[@robmalcolm8042]

@@dannyd4339 yeah and lagging like hell on original hardware and emulators but at least the performance can be better on emulators since they try to optimize the game better than Nintendo etc company.

[@dannyd4339]

@@robmalcolm8042 agreed. Currently. Emulation is the way to go

[@robmalcolm8042]

@@dannyd4339 I love emulation more than original hardware my ps4 is somewhere with dust and my switch sits in its case lmao I’m emulating on an old google pixel xl first gen when they still had snapdragon chips but that was when they were barely able to start doing GameCube. But nds even upscaled thru drastic works fine and many others. Duckstation doesn’t too much unless your doing 1x I guess its too old of a phone. Crazy cause I got access to a s23 ultra and it can do 16x max res on duckstation easily and cpu and gpu is like at 50% with that! Lol duckstation is accurate ps1 emulation so that’s not easy to do without power.
