Skyline
Nintendo Switch™ Emulator for Android™
(No longer in active development)
Skyline was an open source and experimental emulator that runs on ARMv8 Android™ devices and emulates the functionality of a Nintendo Switch™ system.
All development on Skyline has been ceased due to the potential legal risks involved, this website will remain up for the time being but may be taken down in the future. Our Discord Server will still be active for the foreseeable future but will be transitioned into being for our upcoming project at some point. We want to thank everyone who enjoyed Skyline in the past few years ❤️.

Who developed Skyline?
The Skyline Project, while being led by Mark, was composed of a team of open-source developers. See the Team section for more information.
