<p>Developer @daeken (https://twitter.com/daeken/status/1340802622547214338?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1340802622547214338%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fthe8-bit.com%2Fdeveloper-successfully-emulates-nintendo-switch-games-on-apple-m1-macs%2F) on Twitter has gotten Nintendo Switch games to run on Apple Silicon Macs. The implementation is not quite perfect yet due to the technical limitations of the MoltenVK runtime library (https://moltengl.com/moltenvk/), which “maps Vulkan to Apple’s Metal graphics framework.” Even with these limitations, the emulation looks very promising.</p>
