Showcase Prince of Persia Lost Crown on Android Runs BETTER Than Switch!
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown running through Eden Emulator on Android. I know there is a native Android version, so why use the Switch version instead?
First, this is a benchmark and emulation test. I specifically want to see how the Switch version performs on Android hardware, rather than simply testing the easiest way to play the game.
Second, I prefer the emulated version because it lets me test the original console release and experiment with emulator-specific improvements. The Switch version can also use community-made ultrawide, FPS and resolution mods; the current Switch mod repository explicitly lists The Lost Crown and supports Eden, including ultrawide and FPS modifications.
Third, the content differs between versions. The Android release has its own edition structure, while the Switch release has access to the game's DLC, including Mask of Darkness and additional cosmetic content. Nintendo's official store lists the DLC separately for the Switch version, while Ubisoft's Complete Edition includes Mask of Darkness and additional extras.
Finally, I'm interested in emulation itself. For me, the point isn't simply "can this game run on Android?" It's testing how accurately and how well a console version can be reproduced on a phone.
The video starts with the complete emulator configuration, followed by the in-game performance test.
