Comment on EmuDeck Officially Adds PS4 Emulation Support With ShadPS4

I don’t think the architecture has to be different for something to be emulation.

There’s not much hardware to emulate rather the software. X86 is probably the target.

I’d argue exposing and implementing all the APIs PS4 games expect to exist and in the way they expect them to behave is just as much emulation as translating CPU instructions.
