'''Egg NS''' is a closed -source [[Nintendo Switch emulators|Nintendo Switch]] emulator for Android. '''<br/><b><span style="color:red">NOTE: It is not recommended you use this emulator due to similar [[DamonPS2]] controversies.'''</span></b>
==Issues==
===Subtle form of marketing===
Despite advertising itself as a "free" emulator, the truth is that in order to use the emulator, you need to use a specific controller (Gamesir X2 or X3) and supports touch controls but they can only be used by paying a monthly VIP membership . And, it is known that NXTeam is working with the company who designs these controls.
===Privacy Concerns===
Egg NS asks you to register an account with a real email address before playing - this is already quite concerning since it's unknown where that data is actually going, Egg NS have NXTeam has not given out any information about the server handling that the information. Don't use your main email address.
===Code Theft===
Like [[DamonPS2]], it's been sufficiently demonstrated that Egg NS has stolen code from [[yuzu]] and [[Skyline]], without their permission of course. Egg NS shares several very specific problems in games with yuzu. And if you manage to start Egg NS without an account, the default account name will be 'yuzu'<ref name="Reddit_yuzuname">{{cite web|url=https://www.reddit.com/r/EmulationOnAndroid/comments/p708kv/i_accidentally_played_eggns_without_an_account/ |title=Thread: yuzu's name popped up on EggNS w/out account |author='T-Real33' |publisher=Reddit |date=18 August 2021}}</ref>.
