How to Fix Games Not Appearing in the Sudachi Library?
Sudachi isn't the most popular Yuzu emulator fork but it is a fairly good one that gets regular updates. But if you are like everyone else you will have noticed that there is an issue in Sudachi that causes some games not to appear in the library when you add them. While this is more of an issue with newer games even some older games may also be affected.
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Sudachi\keys
To solve this problem, find and place a new Prod.keys file in the above folder and all the games you are trying to add will start working. You will have to do this from time to time as newer games will require newer keys. Using the same Prod.keys file sadly won't work forever.
Where to Get Prod.keys Files for Sudachi?
Finding Prod.keys for Sudachi is generally possible in the same places where you find the games. However, due to certain restrictions, we can’t specify any locations where these might be available. It's worth noting what happened with Yuzu as a cautionary tale. If you’re new to Sudachi, the links below will be incredibly useful, particularly those related to optimization and saves. Additionally, you can currently rely on Yuzu guides for addressing most issues.
Why Don't Games Appear in the Sudachi Library?
Unlike a lot of other emulators available at the moment, Sudachi is easy to use, runs exceptionally well, and has just about everything you could ever want. While it is a fork of Yuzu and Suyu it appears to be taking a slightly different direction of development which is nice. As with all emulators though, things move really fast! Soy you'll need to keep a few things up to date as outdated files will cause certain elements of Sudachi to stop working. You can download the latest version of Sudachi here
