How to play Switch games on Mac 1 My child wants to play Switch games, and I don't want to just spend money on a gaming console. I recently learned that the current Mac system can run a Switch emulator, so I bought him a Mac mini M4. This product is very interesting. I'll talk more about it later. First, let me record how to install the emulator and play Switch games on Mac First, download the emulator software: https://ryujinx.app/ Download the necessary key and firmwares: https://prodkeys.io/ryujinx-keys-ryujinx-firmware-21-0-0/On the page, find the download button in the figure below, click to download, remember to download both files.  The next two items were checked with GPT: firmwares are equivalent to the Switch's operating system. Key is equivalent to the serial number in the game hardware, each Switch console comes with one, which can be copied out; the ones on the internet are shared by others. If you have an actual Switch, you can copy your own. If you cannot access the page, you may need to consider installing a proxy, please solve it yourself. After downloading the emulator software, it is a compressed package. After decompression, it is a direct-installable application. Just drag this application into the Applications folder.  In the program, find the application and click to open. Normally, it will prompt that the software is dangerous. At this point, go to Settings and select 'Allow Anyway'. Confirm this, and you can open it normally next time.     The opened program defaults to an English interface. In the Action interface, select 'Install keys', choose 'Install from folder', click to open a selection box, select both files, and add them.  After adding keys, add Firmwares in the same way by selecting from the folder.  After completing the above steps, you have successfully set up the virtual machine environment.
