There's also a Switch emulator that's being made for the PS5 that's a port of Eden. It's called ProsperoEden and can already run some games [1]

Heck, someone in the emulation community dropped a preview that they're a couple of months out from creating a Switch game recompiler - which generates native x86 windows builds AOT. It's incredible.

I have to imagine that AI has significantly increased the velocity of technically demanding hobby projects.

The recompilation scene has exploded recently. Seems like it could be the future of retrogaming where you get an actual native build of every game. Also opens the door to full mod support of old games as well as being able to run more demanding games on hand held devices that previously didn't have the power to run certain emulators.
