An Android-only performance-focused Dolphin (Official) fork, continued from the Dolphin MMJ source code by Weihuoya. This version is merely to add or update the current MMJ code with further fixes and changes to hopefully improve things. However there is only so much that can be done with this so users please keep that in mind.

Emulation issues

RPCS3

The RPCS3 developers once considered adding Vita emulation support, going as far as displaying a simple 'Hello world' and a basic atomic test sample.[1] However, Vita development was completely halted since then and focused exclusively on PS3 emulation down to the website's branding. A Patreon post admitting as much asked users whether they are still interested at all in Vita emulation. Significant further developments on Vita coming from RPCS3 aren't very likely considering the general lack of developer interest, and those who are (like frangarcj) went on to join Vita3K. The RPCS3 project has since removed Vita support from the codebase.[2]
