→Emulators
:A closed-source emulator in the work since late July/August 2018. It can boot some homebrews as well as the title screen of one commercial game. This is more a one person project for personal training at the moment.
;Skyline
:The first attempt at an [[Android]] emulator by [https://github.com/Cyuubi/ Cyuubi], a developer known for the 3DS emulator [https://github.com/Cyuubi/LemonLime/ LemonLime]. Originally known as [https://gbatemp.net/threads/mononx-an-experimental-nintendo-switch-emulator-for-android.531427/ MonoNX] and previously called Lightswitch,Skyline replaced the project name due to Xamarin framework's limitationsthe less than admired name lightswitch (skyline being a synonym for the switch operating system named horizon OS). The project had later been handed over to Pixelylon[https://github.com/PixelyIon]. This new project is being written in C++ and Java using JNI. Skyline is made to act as a compatibility layer that allows native code execution on android to remove CPU emulation overhead. :This emulator actually displays no graphics at all for commercial games, making it useless mostly not useful for end-users at the moment; although sound is outputted for a few games. Further more, decryption of games are currently not supported, only booting decrypted .nsp games and .nro formats
;Egg NS
:It's the first emulator able to play games on [[Android]] device, able to run 81 titles while 73 titles are still crashing. The current version of Egg NS lacks any onscreen buttons, instead requiring users to purchase a Gamesir-X2 controller. The emulator also calls for a high-end device with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855/855+/865/865+. Despite the achievement, Egg NS was however the subject of intense scrutiny and controversy due to its questionable business model requiring users to spend $100 on a specific controller, a mandatory signup for the service, and to top it all off, GPL-licensed code stolen from [[yuzu]].
