# shirai91/nx2android

> A compatibility layer for porting Nintendo Switch games to Android: the game's arm64 code runs natively, Switch system services are replaced by a host, and NVN graphics are replayed on Vulkan. Requires your own game files and prod.keys.

## Useful for

- Build an APK and data pack from an NSP/XCI folder via the GUI or python -m porter port
- Install the resulting APK on a connected device over adb with the --install flag
- Check a specific game's compatibility in docs/PORT_STATUS.md before porting

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-29 (UTC), 00:03–02:11: 118 → 121 stars (+3). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +35 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 121 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #166.
- About 11 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## 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: 19
- Issues and pull requests: 8
- Watchers: 4
- Average over the last week: 26 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 1
- Latest release: v0.1.2 (2026-10-28)

## Stars per day, last 6 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

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.
