I decided to upgrade to a Google Pixel 7 and figured I would see how well it handles video game emulation.

For DS games, the DraStic emulator. It plays games great with about 2x enhanced graphics.

I am using a Dual Shock 4 PS4 controller connected via Bluetooth with this emulator. For games that require you to use a touch screen, you can just touch your actualy screen too.

I am using the phone's built-in video screen recorder. Note that it can have a small impact on performance, so if a game appears slightly jerky but the FPS remains solid, it typically plays smooth as butter on the phone when not recording.

GOOGLE PIXEL 7 SPECS:
6.3-inch OLED / 20:9 aspect ratio / Up to 90Hz screen
Google Tensor G2 CPU
Mali-G710 MP7 GPU
8 GB LPDDR5 RAM
128 GB or 256 GB UFS 3.1 storage
October 13, 2022 street release date

If your performance gets worse over time, try dropping your screen brightness and/or disabling the phone's "Smooth Display" feature, which changes the refresh rates from 90 Hz to 60 Hz.

Here are the important DraStic settings I am using:

Press Map Control and then map the buttons to the on-screen prompt

To change the screen layout more precisely, start up a game, press the up arrow menu button, choose "Menu," tap on "Edit Screens and Virtual Pad," tap "Landscape x:1," tap "Resize" then drag the screens to where you want them and drap the bottom right corner of the screens to resize them.
