Someone got Pokémon Pokopia running on a PS5 with Linux on it, and I don't know what to believe anymore
Things are getting crazy.
The gaming community has witnessed remarkable developments that leave one questioning what is possible. When our gaming editor reported on the porting of Super Mario Bros. Wonder to PC, many wondered how this could surpass the achievement. However, the limits are pushed further: Pokémon Pokopia is now running on a PS5, which itself is running Linux. This development has been shared on the Centro Leaks X feed, sparking curiosity among gamers.
A video demonstrates the game's progress, but it remains a work in progress. In the footage, characters appear as shadowy figures, indicating further refinement is needed. Meanwhile, the unofficial port of the Eden emulator to PS5, ProsperoEden, has made notable strides. A video showcases the game with properly textured graphics, though the framerate appears to be a bit slow.
Despite the current limitations, the advancements in decompilations and ports are undoubtedly impressive. The gaming landscape seems to be expanding without boundaries, leaving us to wonder what other games will find their way onto platforms they typically wouldn't be compatible with. The sky appears to be the limit for this innovative community.
