New Nintendo Switch emulator Citron launches on Android after previous shutdowns

A new Nintendo Switch emulator called Citron has been released in early access on Android. It is based on the Yuzu emulator, which was shut down by Nintendo earlier this year. Citron includes minor upgrades but maintains similar functionality. The developer, Zephyron, claims Citron is a "Nintendo Homebrew Emulator" for educational purposes. The site includes a pop-up warning users against loading unauthorized games, shifting legal responsibility to them. This approach mirrors that of the earlier Suyu emulator, which also faced shutdown. Despite these changes, it remains uncertain if Citron will evade Nintendo's legal actions. The company has previously targeted similar projects, and new emulators continue to emerge from existing source code.
