## Useful for

- Import NSP files and build a single game library with updates and DLC
- Run automated game preparation: extraction, update merging, shader compilation
- Check the environment (Xcode, Metal, disk space) before the first game build

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-27 (UTC), 00:44–05:42: 206 → 206 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- The repository is 7 days old and already has 206 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Recent forks include notable developers: @gmh5225 (1,299 followers).

## Star trust

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.
