Including a binary (Snakey_NX.nro) in the repo's files rather than using a release is a bad idea due to the fact that as the source changes you will also have to update said binary. Basically, delete the nro file in the repo.
Most people who came up with that idea wanted to do it with something that could be an "accident" by basically intentionally including a bug that leads to code execution and pretending it was a mistake. This guy made a Ruby interpreter and just left it in his game and told everyone, that's not...
