{{for|software that emulates the Switch|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.

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===Many GNU/Linux distributions are available, including Ubuntu [https://wiki.switchroot.org/en/Linux/Ubuntu-Install-Guide Bionic] and [https://download.azka.li/archive/focal/ Focal], [https://download.azka.li/nightly/fedora/ Fedora], and Gentoo. With these, it is possible to run many emulators and software for GNU/Linux on these systems.
