A Mac game-library launcher and graphical build tool for nxnative, preparing personal Mac or iPhone/iPad apps from your own supported Switch files. This is a separate community fork, not a bundled game collection.

File requirements
Supply your own Switch game dumps, required updates/DLC and prod.keys. The launcher opens on Apple silicon macOS 13+; NVN game builds need Xcode 27.1 on macOS 26.6+ unless using the documented alternate-Metal override. The app bundles Python/build tools and installs .NET SDK 10. iPhone builds target iOS 26+; older devices are untested. Game-derived code and assets must not be redistributed.
Based on public documentation; full builds and playthroughs have not been tested. Project documentation 
What it recreates
Builds on nxnative's Switch-code rewriting, Horizon service replacements and NVN-to-Metal graphics. The underlying execution work comes from nxnative and its d2r-mobile foundation; NX2Apple adds the launcher, archive handling and installation workflow. It is unaffiliated with Nintendo.
What’s different
Adds a controller-friendly Mac library, resumable builds, per-game launch settings, save management and Xcode signing/install assistance. Game data can be packed into romfs.img and selected from external storage on iPhone/iPad.
What you can use today
v0.7.1 supplies the Apple silicon Mac builder. Console mode now starts games fullscreen on the launcher’s display, build failures offer recovery actions and selected DLC is carried into slim iOS builds. v0.7.0 also adds Mac/iPhone save syncing through an iCloud Drive folder. Game changes require rebuilding from your own dumps. It supplies a builder, not ready-to-play game apps. Profiles do not establish complete compatibility; real mods remain untested. Windows has no verified release pipeline. Large games depend on device memory and signing entitlements; free Apple-ID signing expires after seven days. RemakeList has not built, installed or played this release.
