Abstract
A method for emulating a disc swap operation during a play of a legacy game is described. The method includes receiving a user input during the play of the legacy game, determining that the disc swap operation is to be executed based on the user input, and identifying one or more emulated processing unit (PU) code instructions that are included within the disc swap operation during the play of the legacy game. The method further includes compiling, during the play of the legacy game, one or more basic blocks from the one or more emulated PU code instructions, and emulating the disc swap operation. The operation of emulating the disc swap operation includes executing a swap patch emulator.
