nxnative: 4.3k-star project runs Nintendo Switch games natively on iPhone, iPad and Mac
songguoxiansen · x · 2026-10-26
nxnative (4.3k stars, MIT) runs Nintendo Switch games natively on iPhone, iPad and Mac—not an emulator: game code executes directly on Apple silicon with Switch graphics rebuilt on Metal (NSO rewriter, Horizon HLE host, NVN→Metal). Feed it your NSP files and prod.keys and a script produces an unsigned IPA for sideloading. Derived from d2r-mobile's approach for Diablo II: Resurrected; not affiliated with Nintendo. Screenshots show Mario Kart 8, Breath of the Wild at 60fps, and more running.
