It’s reported that the Google Play store entry of Eden emulator (a Switch emulator) is no longer available. We don’t know the reason, but my educated guess is that Nintendo might have striked. I recommend to download current official clean builds and source code for backup, just in case you want to use it later.

I personally still use last official build of Yuzu, even today (playing Tears of the Kingdom). I never tried Eden, but it might be useful to archive it, so I do not need to download builds of others if I can’t build it from source for any reason.

Here is a random article about this subject: https://www.androidauthority.com/play-store-first-nintendo-switch-emulator-3597451/

    Google play is so bad these days. Basically any app which doesn’t have ads gets shadow banned or removed or something. It’s gotten to the point where 90% of the time that I search for an app on there, it has been removed, to be replaced with tons of junk apps that are full of ads and malware.

    Never heard of this. Why use it over Torzu?

    A google play store entry already leads me to believe the developers are morons.

      That’s for the downloads so what is presumably a VPS that they pay for doesn’t go over their data transfer limit.

      The actual source code is not hosted on GitHub, it looks like they’re just using it to host the binary releases.
