Egg NS is a closed source Nintendo Switch emulator for Android. It is not recommended you use this emulator due to similar DamonPS2 controversies.
Contents
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) and you cannot use any other controller. And, it is known that Egg NS 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 converning since it's unknown where that data is actually going, Egg NS have not given out any information about the server handling that 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, without their permission of course. Egg NS shares several very specific problems in games with yuzu. And, if you can believe it, if you manage to start Egg NS without an account, the default account name will be 'yuzu'[1].
Device requirements
Unlike Skyline, Egg NS needs a monster of a phone to match the requirements, and even with them, 3D games are very slow.
Usage of unnecessary resources
Egg NS uses unnecessary resources and also is known to heat up your device quicker than Skyline. Also, this equals the emulator crashing.
