# LNPANDY/nxnative-romfs-archive > A fork of nxnative adding a RomFS archive subsystem: packs a Nintendo Switch RomFS tree into ~100 shard files so large games can be installed on iPhone and iPad. - Magnitude: 4.5 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 159 total · +32 stars measured 2026-10-23, 13:16–15:53 UTC, ≈ 46 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Games & graphics · Language: C · Created: 2026-10-20 · Last push: 2026-10-23 - GitHub: https://github.com/LNPANDY/nxnative-romfs-archive · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/LNPANDY/nxnative-romfs-archive ## Useful for - Pack a game's RomFS into a ~100-shard archive for iOS install - Build a slim IPA without RomFS inside so it installs on iPhone - Copy game files to the phone as one folder of large files ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-23 (UTC), 13:16–15:53: 127 → 159 stars (+32). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +46 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 3 days old and already has 159 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #151. - About 8 forks a day — people are taking the code. - Recent forks include notable developers: @gmh5225 (1,294 followers). ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 17 - Issues and pull requests: 0 - Watchers: 0 - Average over the last week: 33 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 14 - Latest release: v0.3.0 (2026-10-23) ## Stars per day, last 4 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-20 … 2026-10-23: 0, 50, 36, 32 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #151 ## More in this category 1. **seedds/nxnative** — 8.1 · Breakout · Games & graphics · C · +786 stars measured 2026-10-23, 00:36–15:51 UTC, ≈ 1,134 by evening A tool that turns a folder of your own Nintendo Switch NSP files into an unsigned IPA for iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/ly05010419/MacNativeGames.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
