==Emulators==
 
A huge vulnerability was discovered that allowed tons of system files to be dumped, including dumps of games in the form of romfs.istorage archives, an exefs folder, and license files. These game dumps eventually got shared online by scene groups except for their licenses, but they're missing important files to run and even if they were complete, no custom homebrew apps let alone solutions to load unofficial game dumps have been developed yet for the system.
A "debugging emulator" for the Nintendo Switch, [https://github.com/reswitched/Mephisto Mephisto], popped up not long after. What it does is emulate sysmodules with "no support for graphics, sound, input, or any kind of even remotely performant processing [...] by design". While this project is open-source, it is developed as nothing more than research. A conventional emulator that actually plays games will come probably from someone else eventually. Until then... {{no current emulators}}

You should only trust them if you're looking to try out the latest ransomware. These scams have gotten so bad the Federal Trade Commission put out a warning in April 2017 about them.<ref>Linux|[https://www.consumer.ftcgithub.govcom/blog/2017/04yuzu-emu/theres-yuzu Source (nobinaries yet)]|✓|✗|-nintendo-switch-emulator "There's no Nintendo Switch emulator."]</ref>|}
==References==<references/>yuzu is currently the only Switch emulator, but it cannot run games yet. It is by the same developers of the Citra team. There are no binaries available, but you can build it for your OS from their page if you'd like.
