Launch the PC version and locate the ROM to generate an <code>oot.otr</code> file and place it in the <code>soh</code> Switch app folder. Additionally and optionally, you can load the PAL version of the ''Master Quest'' version in the PC version to create an <code>oot-mq.otr</code> to add another game mode.</ref>

Cave Story Engine 2, or CSE2 for short, is a source port of the classic ''Cave Story'' by Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya. CSE2 came with a portable version and an enhanced version of the original freeware but in November 2020, the CSE2 source port has received a [https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-11-26-nicalis-issues-dmca-against-free-cave-story-games DMCA cease and desist notice] from Nicalis, the current IP owner of ''Cave Story'', and the unofficial Switch port received a DMCA cease and desist as well.</ref>

Any recent RetroaArch release includes direct G&W support through the handheld-electronic core which should be a better choice. You can even download the games with the online updater on retroarch itself.

Cave Story Engine 2, or CSE2 for short, is a source port of the classic ''Cave Story'' by Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya. CSE2 came with a portable version and an enhanced version of the original freeware but in November 2020, the CSE2 source port has received a [https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-11-26-nicalis-issues-dmca-against-free-cave-story-games DMCA cease and desist notice] from Nicalis, the current IP owner of ''Cave Story'', and the unofficial Switch port received a DMCA cease and desist as well.</ref>

Nintendo Switch
Nintendo-switch.png
Switchdocked.png
The Switch in its two forms, portable (above) and docked (below).
Developer Nintendo
Type Hybrid video game console
Generation Eighth generation
Release date 2017
Predecessor Wii U
Emulated ✓
For software that emulates the Switch, see Nintendo Switch emulators.

Since the Nintendo Switch was hacked early in its launch, there has been a lot of interest for emulators due to the Switch's portability. These emulators will only work on Switches with CFW on them, i.e. Switch consoles susceptible to the Tegra hardware exploit. For more information and guides on how to homebrew your Switch, or if you even can, visit r/SwitchHacks.

Alternative Operating Systems[edit]

Name Latest version FLOSS Active Recommended
Lakka 5.0 ✓ ✓ ✓
Switchroot Android 17.1 ✓ ✓ ✓
Switchroot Linux Various ✓ ✓ ✓

Switchroot Android[edit]

A build of Android 10 "Q" for the Switch, based on Lineage OS 17.1. Since it shares the same Nvidia Tegra X1 system-on-chip, the build is based off the Nvidia Shield TV build of LineageOS. Its most notable feature is the ability to work both in handheld and docked mode and using the Joycons as a Bluetooth controller (though not all apps may detect them correctly). There is also another build that lets the Switch function as an Android TV box. Many emulators and Android software can run, including DraStic, Dolphin, and Citra.

Switchroot Linux[edit]

Many GNU/Linux distributions are available, including Ubuntu Bionic and Focal, Fedora, and Gentoo. With these, it is possible to run many emulators and software for GNU/Linux on these systems. Play! has had some success with playing PS2 games on Ubuntu, albeit at around 10 FPS.

  1. ↑ As of v8.0.0, Ship of Harkinian supports any PAL ROM of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time for Nintendo 64 or GameCube (SoH Compatibility Checker to check if your ROM is supported). Launch the PC version and locate the ROM to generate an oot.otr file and place it in the soh Switch app folder. Additionally and optionally, you can load the PAL version of the Master Quest version in the PC version to create an oot-mq.otr to add another game mode.
  2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 There is also an official Nintendo Switch remake called Cave Story+ with 3D graphics and the most features out of any other existing version (making it the "definitive version") that may be more recommendable depending on the user's preference. Cave Story Engine 2, or CSE2 for short, is a source port of the classic Cave Story by Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya. CSE2 came with a portable version and an enhanced version of the original freeware but in November 2020, the CSE2 source port has received a DMCA cease and desist notice from Nicalis, the current IP owner of Cave Story, and the unofficial Switch port received a DMCA cease and desist as well.
