The Vulkan graphics API has been particularly popular with some gaming console emulators from the Dolphin Emulator to RetroArch. The latest emulator now working on Vulkan support is PPSSPP...

I wonder if Vulkan would be much of a benefit to pre3D era console emulation.

PPSSPP has Vulkan already (at least on Android). If Your device support this API I can recommend this. It's amazing - 15-20 FPS on OpenGL vs 28-30 FPS on Vulkan for me. I don't think if this is needed on desktop, but It's nice to have another option. On mobile there is huge improvement, at least for me.

Typo in the short description I didn't notice:

I got a bunch of game UMDs that I can no longer play on the PSP because the device is dead.

And I also cannot play them legitimately on an emulator because the computer does not recognize UMDs...

That's sure! The Vulkan support has brought good speed up. Now PSP games run very smooth on Android phones with PPSSPP Emuator

Enjoy these games!
