- Nintendo Switch emulator Kenji-NX got its first big update on Android.
- Update 2.0.4 has bug fixes and UI updates, plus Android-only features.
- The Ryujinx fork is a top performer on Snapdragon 8 Elite devices.
The Nintendo Switch 2 might have launched today, but emulation fans can still celebrate with a major update to an up-and-coming Switch 1 emulator. Kenji-NX is a relatively new Ryujinx fork, but its first major update shows some excellent progress.
Version 2.0.4 contains bug fixes, UI updates, and backend improvements across all platforms. The Android version has a few additional changes, including turning off NCE and PPTC by default. NCE, or native code execution, is a translation layer that has proven key to improving performance on other Switch emulators like Citron.
