Nintendo Switch is a bit of a touchy topic when it comes to emulation, we’ve had some super rough times with Yuzu being taken down (legally) and Ryujinx also being taken down (voluntarily), which left the Switch emu scene…fractured to say the least.
You’ve probably seen Eden’s name or logo around in the last year or so, though. They’ve swiftly become ‘the’ emulator to fill that gap.
Anyway, I interviewed two of the devs from Eden, asking them about the history of Eden, the tech, their plans for the future and…well, plenty more!
If you’ve not seen these before, this is just one of many interviews I hold with my friends who are developers. I like to chat to them a bit and give them the chance to share why they do what they do! So we get a chance to ‘peek behind the curtain’ of the programs and projects we love and use :)

Didn’t Yuzu get taken out legally? Not Eden (albeit it is a fork)?
Yes, Yuzu was a court-ordered take-down.
Ryujinx was a voluntary removal by the devs (though one of the original team now runs Ryubing)
Your description mentions “Eden being taken down (legally)”, so I was wondering if that was a typo.
Oops! Shit, that’s just me not reading what I write!
This always happens to me on here. Thanks for pointing it out!!!
