RetroForge Switch Player 0.7.1 beta

A companion for RetroForge, not a standalone emulator. Install RetroForge first: https://github.com/RetroForgeFrontEnd/RetroForge/releases. Then install this APK. RetroForge finds your Switch games and opens them here; the player has no app icon of its own.

  • Built on Eden (GPL-3.0), tuned for phones: shaders build in the background, and resolution suits your phone's memory.
  • RetroForge pause menu: swipe in from the edge, press Back, or press Home on a controller.
  • Switch settings (from RetroForge's setup and Settings, or the pause menu): keys, firmware, the performance overlay (off until you switch it on) and the GPU driver.
  • Snapdragon phones: one tap downloads the recommended Turnip driver (open source).
  • Frame rates on a Galaxy S22: https://github.com/RetroForgeFrontEnd/RetroForge/blob/main/docs/SWITCH_FPS.md

You need your own keys and firmware, dumped from your own Switch. Nothing of Nintendo's is included.

If you installed an earlier test build, uninstall it once first: this one is signed with a different key.
