3 years ago I covered the Xbox Series S and how its an emulation beast. But in recent times the Xbox Emulation and Homebrew community (running under devmode on the Xbox) took a hit in 2023 when Microsoft blocked unsupported UWP apps from running in retail mode. It all seemed like the community had abandoned the platform and moved on. However, in reality the community never left, its stronger than ever with new updates and emulators that have opened up the floodgates. Even in 2024 – for $299 the Xbox Series S is a series contender alongside any Mini PC on the market as the best value for money you can buy that can support emulators all the way up to Xbox 360 with impressive performance. In today’s episode we take a look at the all-new advancements in the scene and why I’m excited about the future of UWP Apps on Devmode.

Correction : I incorrectly stated that Vulkan is available for UWP. At this time the Mesa 3d UWP port only supports OpenGL
When the PS3 is possible on the S, I'll buy it.
What game is this @ 11:09?
I was so hyped with all the news about Xbox being able to emulate, but I think they have fixed it.
When I am in retroarch and try to update assets nothing happens.
sony fan boy wish the ps5 could do this lol
Can’t make a dev mode account for whatever reason 🙁
Are there any original Xbox emulators
I noticed that when I go a couple of weeks without using dev mode, my programs like dolphin stop working, and I have to erase all of them and reinstall and the most recent time I've had issues connecting my Xbox with my computer through the browser. It's nice when it works, but I just wish I didn't have to redo everything so much
That’s not true cause your arms also grow if you do lighter weight with more reps. You look like a freaking ghost 👻 no offense. LMAO
Gerlach Gateway
Xbox trash 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I spent a ton of time setting up emulation just to have all my shit break and stop working within a couple weeks (randomly, I was on dev mode and it just stopped working) and need to be completely started over from scratch. Never got around to doing it again.
Great video. I have wanted to replay PS2 classics, but didn't find it comfy on Steam Deck or in front of my desktop PC. I'm thinking a FB Marketplace Series S plugged into the TV might be just the thing I need for some nostalgia…
Can you use an i-Pac 2 with the Xbox whilst emulating?
Please devs try to do a switch emulator if possible.
Which game is that nascar game in the start of the video…? Anyone knows ?? 0:00
is this still working?
Are the games already on all this emulators? Like dolphin is a app you download then the games on the app already?
So in dev mode u just play only emulate game?
Is it ban able ?, I want to but don't want to get ban.
Sega Rally 2 does not run at 60fps, does it?
What was that Star Wars game at 0:37 ?
I went from wanting to sell my series s, to being jealous I don't have a series x real quick!
On (0.56) you can see the homebrew apps on the dashboard.
How on earth do you do that?
I thought you could only access them via the dev mode back end?
What racing game is that in the beginning of the video???
yuh i want ps3 emulation but they don't got it
How would the Xbox One X compare to the Series S as technically the One X has some more horsepower? I don’t mean the Series X, I mean the One X
is devmod free ?
Are there any drawbacks to using the dev mode and using emulators on series x ??
I’m new to this so forgive my ignorance , I just am afraid to like “brick my console” or void any warranties is all.
Waiting for Wii U emulator on XBS for Mario kart 8. Hopefully it's possible one day
Hello MVG, i have an xbox one X, do you think it’s worth modding in 2024 or should i just invest in a series S?
Make it emulate ps4 then 😂🤣
How does Xbox One X compare?
