M1 Apple Silicon Macs when it comes to gaming. With many games jumping in game performance from barely playable on Intel Macs to buttery smooth 60 FPS on Apple Silicon. The following is the most comprehensive list for gaming benchmarks. Now that the Apple M1 MacBooks are out there, users are looking for apps and games that can run natively on Apple custom silicon. While the Mac App Store is updating with more apps that run. The M1 is no Mac evolution, it's a Mac revolution. Yes, the 16-inch MacBook Pro with its dedicated graphics card manages the same game just fine with 60 fps at the highest screen resolution. A YouTuber has ran performance tests with 25 different games, all played on a brand-new M1 13-inch MacBook Pro. Borderlands 3 supports the Metal API, running on Rosetta 2. Running at 1080p, the game ran at about 22.9 fps, on average. It’s not a great number, but it’s generally unplayable on most Intel Macs out there.

The Nintendo Switch is powered by NVIDIA’s Tegra chipset, which unlike Intel processors, is based on the ARM architecture. This means, at least in theory, that games playable on the Switch should also be playable on other ARM-based devices, like Apple’s new M1 Mac computers, right?

Yup, that would be correct because according to developer Sera Tonin Brocious, it seems that she has successfully managed to emulate Switch games on an M1 Mac computer. Now before you get too excited, first of all this is by no means an official method of running Switch games, and we’re sure that Nintendo probably won’t be too pleased with the idea.

I'm so fucking proud of this. It only gets a few frames into the game before it hits the first MoltenVK limitation, but damn. Install mojave unsupported mac. pic.twitter.com/NcLIBLWOPz

Secondly, there are limitations to this emulation. While Switch games can be run on an M1 powered Mac computer, there are technical limitations of the MoltenVK runtime library. This means that there’s still a lot of work left to be done before it can even be considered as playable. You can see some of those limitations in the video above.

However, it is still a very impressive port of a Switch game to an M1 Mac, so who knows, maybe down the road there could be an unofficial way for Switch gamers to enjoy their games on their computers instead of the console.
