As of March 2022, an estimated half of the Nintendo Switch library can be played from start to finish, like Super Mario Odyssey, which had correct graphics and speed after 1 year of it getting to boot up.
 
===History===
yuzu reached in-game on several Nintendo Switch exclusives in November 2019,<ref>[https://twitter.com/yuzuemu/status/1195079948635164679 Pokémon Sword and Shield go in-game] (November 14, 2019)</ref> and has been improving in compatibility by the day with active developers ever since.

[https://yuzu-emu.org/entry/yuzu-progress-report-2018-p1/ This progress report] from July 2018 details the extensive work required to research the Switch and get yuzu up and running, chronicling the compatibility status of a small bundle of games and apps over time. The post also covers a surprising number of similarities between the hardware and firmware of the [[Nintendo_3DS_emulators|3DS]] and Switch, and why portions of [[Citra]] were reused in yuzu.
The titles 'yuzu started showing some 3D rendering on 'The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+, Puyo Puyo Tetris'Super Mario Odyssey' and ''Cave Story+'' formed the first group of games to boot on this emulatorin early August 2018.<ref>{{cite web|title=First games are running!|url=[https://yuzu-emutwitter.orgcom/entryyuzuemu/first-games-are-runningstatus/|author=JMC47|date=April 151027066281441341440 First 3D Graphics] (August 8, 2018|accessdate=April 16, 2018}})</ref> On late This long-awaited exclusive brought a lot of interest in the project.
