The first build of the Suyu Nintendo Switch emulator is now available for download, packing multiple improvements over the latest build of the now-defunct Yuzu emulator.

The build, which can be downloaded here, packs plenty of improvements, such as Qlaunch initial integration, which allows users to use the main Switch system menu on the emulator, improved add-ons manager, crash fixes, new UI options and improvements, re-implemented multiplayer API and QOL changes. Additionally, the first Suyu build removes all telemetry, which provided user data to the Yuzu developers and was used by Nintendo to prove how the emulator was mostly used to play pirated games. The full feature list of the first build of the new Nintendo Switch emulator can be found below.
