NX Play
A Mac app (and the nxplay script behind it) that builds, plays, installs and manages your Switch games through nxnative, on the Mac and on iPhone / iPad.
Third-partyFeatures and requirements
- A library of your games with their icons: extract, play on the Mac and rebuild from one window; Console Mode runs full screen with a game controller
- Install on an iPhone or iPad through Xcode or build an IPA to sideload; copy saves between the Mac and a device and back them up to your own private Git repository
- Pulls nxnative's latest fixes before each run and rebuilds when they change something, or keeps a build that works as it is; needs Apple silicon and macOS 15+
