Dont know OP, but I am playing pokemon scarlet on it, m1 max macbook 15, and its pinned at 30fps. Don't know if the game just wants to run at 30fps, or if my macbook can't go any faster. But since its stable at exactly 30, I assume it's the game

From my experience with yuzu and ryujinx, in order to exceed 30fps, most games need to be modded. Almost all popular games have a mod available though.
Most Switch games don't run at 60fps in docked mode because they can't nearly hit the framerate at 1080p. The Switch has dynamic resolution scaling but it still lags.

For this reason many games only run at 60fps in handheld mode.
