About nxnative Guide

nxnative Guide is an independent, unofficial site about nxnative and MacNativeGames, the open-source projects that run Switch games you own natively on Apple devices. It is not run by their developers and has no connection to them, to Nintendo or to Apple.

Why this site exists

The official documentation lives on GitHub and is written for people comfortable with the command line. This site restates it in plain language: what it is, which games work, what you need and how the process goes.

What this site does not do

It does not host, mirror or link to any game files, keys, firmware or packaged apps, and does not explain how to obtain them. Every link to code goes to the official GitHub repositories.

Where the information comes from

From the READMEs and documentation in the official repositories. Each page shows when it was last checked. Developers who want something changed or removed can use the contact page.
