# MythosOfs/Orchid > A very experimental Nintendo Switch 2 emulator in C++, grown out of Eglantine; focused first on running Mario Tennis Fever, plus shader, kernel and graphics work for other games. - Magnitude: 3.1 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 370 total · +4 stars measured 2026-11-09, 00:04–02:10 UTC, ≈ 33 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Games & graphics · Language: C++ · License: GPL-3.0 · Created: 2026-11-01 · Last push: 2026-11-09 - GitHub: https://github.com/MythosOfs/Orchid · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/MythosOfs/Orchid ## Useful for - Run Mario Tennis Fever on Linux or Windows using the prebuilt AppImage or zip release - Build the newest main commit yourself when the release lags behind the branch - Check a specific game's compatibility via the FPS table and glitch notes ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-09 (UTC), 00:04–02:10: 366 → 370 stars (+4). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +33 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - The repository is 8 days old and already has 370 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. ## 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: 24 - Issues and pull requests: 121 - Watchers: 8 - Average over the last week: 57 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 2 - Latest release: v0.9.1 (2026-11-08) ## Stars per day, last 9 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-11-01 … 2026-11-09: 0, 1, 22, 35, 172, 83, 26, 31, 4 ## Magnitude by day, last 4 days 11-06 5.7, 11-07 4.8, 11-08 3.4, 11-09 3.1 ## Similar by description 1. **zortos293/Lichii** — 5.7 · Peaking · Games & graphics · C++ · +78 stars measured 2026-11-09, 00:02–02:09 UTC, ≈ 862 by evening Experimental Nintendo Switch 2 emulator in C++, a fork of Eglantine with memory leak fixes, speed improvements and support for more games. Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/zortos293/Lichii.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.
